Probably the closest one is an open HDD but still. Good UI should not require explanation and everyone recognises a floppy disk as "Save".
Same as if I want to send domething and see a paper airplane.
An HDD is also a deprecated symbol
Agreed but given the symbol for an SSD would be a rectangle or a rectangle with a plug at the bottom, I think HDD would be the most recent tech that would convey "save" when used as a symbol.
Hard to beat the good ol' floppy though
