B
The device can be removed with power applied after it is properly stopped in the operating system.
C
Care must be taken when swapping the device because it can be hot to the touch.

Detailed explanation-3: -A hybrid hard drive (HHD), sometimes known as a solid-state hybrid drive (SSHD), is a mass storage device that combines a conventional hard disk drive (HDD) and a NAND flash module. An HHD blends the capacity, cost and performance of physical disk storage with the accelerated performance of flash.

Detailed explanation-4: -Although many storage administrators are now choosing disk as the media of choice for backups, tape storage media remains the most widely used archive media mostly because of its cost-to-capacity ratio, but also due to a very broad and well-established implementation base.

Detailed explanation-5: -Hard drives and optical drives commonly use +5 and +12 volts.
