Tag cleanup for Feb/MarchApril 2014

The following tags are meta tags (or tags that are too broad or ambiguous) and need to be removed.

  • (Now cleared) – retag to the type of "disk" being used (hard drive, SSD, USB flash drive, etc.)
  • (Now cleared)
  • (Now cleared) - may need to synonymize with
  • (Now cleared)

(no tags yet)

For a list of other tags that possibly need to go, scroll to the answer section. We will promote tags from the answers to this question, so our efforts can be focused on a set of few tags at a time.


##Important

Do not flag/vote to close for migration; many of them are too old, too highly upvoted, just plain crap, or out of scope according to the help center.

Remember, we don't migrate crap.

In this case, as mentioned above, cast your vote for closure and/or deletion and also flag for moderator attention and we'll review it.

###Pro-tip #1

If you are removing tags from a massive number of questions, it's better to go to the last question on the last page of all questions with that tag and work your way backwards. This prevents you from having to deal with the cache not reflecting your edits on the question list combined with browser-cache issues.

If you haven't visited most of these questions, you'll know what you changed because the link for the question will have a different color.

###Pro-tip #2

Please edit in small batches and be mindful of front-page flooding – we don't want the entire front page to be filled with edits of old questions. Do five or ten edits at a time, then come back later.

Please edit this question (or any of its answers) and remove each tag when there are no questions left tagged.
