They offer twice as much memory as earlier Model 60's and 80's and include high-performance fixed disks as standard equipment.

Standard configuration for storage was one or two fixed disks, each in a separate pull-out drawer, which typically held the operating system and user-developed programs.

Even if the removable disks' capacity is smaller than fixed disks, their interchangeability guarantees a nearly unlimited quantity of data close at hand.

Non-removable HDDs were called fixed disk drives.

With the advent of larger removable and fixed disk drives, "disk deblocking" formulas were employed which resulted in more disk "blocks" per logical file allocation block.

Thus, SPIN explored all of these approaches, and eventually it delivered a very large 28" diameter fixed disk and also a smaller multi-platter 14" removable disk-pack system.
