How do I know whether my disk C: is on the SSD or on the HDD? [closed]

I bought an SSD and I cloned the system from the HDD to the SSD using the Minitool Partition Wizard, then changed the boot order in the BIOS and rebooted. I have two disks called OS visible in the File Manager. One is active (C:) - but how do I make sure that it's on the SSD? I open "properties" of drive C: in the File Manager, but there is nothing to indicate where it's located in the physical sense (SSD or HDD).

    I believe this question is clear enough and not too broad. OP needed to know about the appropriate tool to get them the information they require, and gave us sufficient information in their question to make that clear.

You find this information most easily in Disk Management.



Open your start menu and begin typing "disk management", once this application shows in the results open it.



You'll now see a list of all of the disks on your computer and the partitions on them and the drive letters associated with those partitions.

            Quarter-circle Tiles

            Image
            up vote 0 down vote favorite I have $99$ identical square tiles, each with a quarter-circle drawn on it like this: [asy] size(1.5cm); draw(Arc((2,0),1,90,180),red+1); draw((0,0)--(2,0)--(2,2)--(0,2)--(0,0)); [/asy] When I arrange the tiles in a $9times 11$ rectangular grid, each with a random orientation, what is the expected value of the number of full circles I form? I think this problem has to do with finding the chance any given 2x2 square has a circle, but I can't find it. expected-value share | cite | improve this question asked Nov 20 at 15:03 6minecraftninja 1 2

            build a pushdown automaton that recognizes the reverse language of a given pushdown automaton?

            Image
            0 I think it's similiar to NFAs. I replace the finite states of the given automaton for start-states for my new automaton. I do it with $epsilon$ -transition from the start state to the actual finite states of the given automaton. The start state of the given automaton will be my accepting(finite) state of my new one. All transitions will be reversed of course to recognize the reversed word. But how do I have to change the stack of the pushdown automaton? That's tricky. formal-languages automata context-free-grammar share | cite | improve this question edited Nov 29 '18 at 14:20 joee
