disc
Round, flat shape
Disc is a variant spelling of disk, preferred in British English and in specific technical contexts.
Compact disc and disc brake use this spelling by convention.
In anatomy, the pads between vertebrae are usually spinal discs.
American English generally favors disk for computing contexts: hard disk, floppy disk.
The spellings are often interchangeable, though consistency within a document matters more than which you choose.
