| available disks | tillgängliga diskar (A storage pool that exposes physical disks that are currently available for inclusion in a storage pool on a particular storage subsystem) |
| basic disk | standarddisk (A physical disk that can be accessed by MS-DOS and all Windows-based operating systems. Basic disks can contain up to four primary partitions, or three primary partitions and an extended partition with multiple logical drives) |
| digital video disk | dvd (A form of storage characterized by high capacity (roughly 650 MB) and the use of laser optics rather than magnetic means for reading data. Optical disk storage commonly used for audio, video, and computer data. DVDs range in capacity from 4.7 GB to 17 GB, and can store significantly more than a CD-ROM) |
| disk-based web site | diskbaserad webbplats (A web site hosted on a local computer) |
| disk configuration information | information om diskkonfiguration (Information in the Windows registry on assigned drive letters, simple volumes, striped volumes, mirrored volumes, spanned volumes, and RAID-5 volumes. You can change the disk configuration by using Disk Management) |
| Disk Utilization report | diskutnyttjanderapport (A DPS report that provides statistics on disk capacity, allocation, usage, and availability) |
| dynamic disk | dynamisk disk (A physical disk that provides features that basic disks do not, such as support for volumes that span multiple disks. Dynamic disks use a hidden database to track information about dynamic volumes on the disk and other dynamic disks in the computer. You convert basic disks to dynamic by using the Disk Management snap-in or the DiskPart command-line tool. When you convert a basic disk to dynamic, all existing basic volumes become dynamic volumes) |
| Dynamic Disk Fair Share | dynamisk diskfördelning (A feature that prevents sessions from over-utilizing disk usage by equal distribution of disk I/O among sessions) |
| Edit Virtual Hard Disk Wizard | guiden Redigera virtuell hårddisk (A wizard that is used by advanced users to perform specific operations on their existing virtual hard disks such as compacting their virtual hard disk, merging it, converting it to another type or expanding its size) |
| floppy disk | diskett (A reusable magnetic storage medium. The floppy disk used today is the rigid 3.5-inch microfloppy that holds 1.44 MB. It is called floppy because the first varieties were housed in bendable jackets) |
| floppy disk drive | diskenhet (A hardware device that reads data from and writes data to floppy disks) |
| hybrid hard disk | hybridhårddisk (A hard disk that contains a small amount of solid-state nonvolatile memory which, when used as a cache, can realize significant benefits such as faster booting, extended battery life, and a more rugged PC) |
| leaf disk | lövnivådisk (The last disk in a chain with no child disks attached to it) |
| MBR disk | MBR-disk (A disk that uses the master boot record (MBR) partition style) |
| New Virtual Hard Disk Wizard | guiden Ny virtuell hårddisk (A wizard that is used by advanced users to create custom virtual hard disks for virtual machines. The purpose of the New Virtual Hard Disk Wizard is to gather the basic information from the user necessary to create a new virtual hard disk) |
| physical disk resource | resurs för fysisk disk (A disk on a cluster storage device. Physical disks are supported as cluster resources by a Resource DLL) |
| Primary disk | primär disk (The hard disk drive that contains the system and boot partitions used to start Windows) |
| quorum disk | kvorumdisk (The cluster disk on which configuration data is maintained in the quorum log, cluster database checkpoint, and resource checkpoints. The quorum disk is managed by the quorum resource, which is usually a special kind of physical disk resource) |
| unallocated disk space | ej tilldelat diskutrymme (Any unpartitioned and unformatted space on a hard disk) |
| virtual disk | virtuell disk (A collection of one or more physical disks from a previously created storage pool) |
| Windows Disk Diagnostic | Diskdiagnostik i Windows (Feature of Windows that proactively detects impending disk failures and can alert the support center to replace the failing hard disk before total failure occurs. For administrators, this feature will guide them through the process of backing up their data so the hard disk can be replaced without data loss) |
| witness disk | vittnesdisk (For a failover cluster, a disk in the cluster storage that is designated to hold a copy of the cluster configuration database. A failover cluster has a witness disk only if this is specified as part of the quorum configuration) |
| zero power optical disk drive Pertaining to the ability to reduce the power consumption of optical disk drives in the operating system to zero to save energy when the drives are not in use | Zero Power ODD (optisk diskenhet) |
