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.

            Probability when a professor distributes a quiz and homework assignment to a class of n students.

            Image
            0 0 $begingroup$ Need help with this problem. Suppose our lazy professor collects a quiz and a homework assignment from a class of n students one day, then distributes both the quizzes and the homework assignments back to the class in a random fashion for grading. Each student receives one quiz and one homework assignment to grade. (a) What is the probability that every student receives someone else's quiz to grade, and someone else's homework to grade? (b) What is the probability that no student receives both their own quiz and their own homework assignment to grade? In this case, some students may receive their own quiz, and others may receive their own homework assignment. (c) Compute the limiting probability as n approaches infinity in each case. ...
