Windows 10 cannot work on a hard drive?

In a way, it makes sense: when my father upgraded from Seven to W10, W10 never worked properly and killed the hard drive in a matter of 3 days.

Sure it can, but mechanical drives are just comparitively glacially slow agianst SSDs and 'general OS snappiness' is one of the major real-world examples of where you feel it.

Yet windows 7 ran fine with them, performing the same functions.
