Hårddisk eller Enhet


Explanation:
Termen drivenhet används väl mer för motorer och mekanik än för datorer? Beroende på sammanhang översätter jag oftast drive med hårddisk eller ibland endast enhet. Enhet är också Microsofts översättning av drive.

extern hårddisk


Explanation:
I would guess it is an "external harddrive," from the context of the text.
