Disk Turd

"Disk turd" refers to a piece of data or information that is particularly useless, unnecessary, or irrelevant, often found cluttering up digital storage spaces.
Every time I clean out my hard drive, I come across dozens of old files that are nothing but disk turds – random screenshots and memes I don't even remember saving.
