discs
Flat circular objects
Discs is the plural of disc, the British English spelling of disk.
Both forms refer to flat, circular objects or shapes.
In British usage, discs commonly describes vinyl records, CDs, DVDs, and similar media: I found a box of old discs in the attic.
The spelling also appears in anatomical contexts like spinal discs and in disc brakes.
American English generally prefers disk, though compact disc uses the British spelling universally.
