    Do HDDs get slower as they get full?

    I know that SSDs work this way and I know why they do, but do HDDs work the same way, or can I increase my HDD capacity to 99% without seeing any performance drop? Also, I know that with an SSD if you keep it 90%+ full it will reduce drive longevity. Is this also true for HDDs?
