No. A PC needs non-volatile memory for the operating system. What a memory does not matter.

Machanic plates are very cheap, solid state plates very fast. So, if you need a fast system plate and a large data grave for little money, this is a config.

You can also boot from the USB stick.

If nothing is connected, your PC will always boot to the BIOS.

When it goes

I have to contradict the previous answers. A PC does not need permanent memory such as hard drive, SSD, or SD card to work with it.

You can start a PC. After the start process, something bootable is searched by the bios. That’s an operating system. As a rule, the user area is a plate/SSD where the operating system is on it. There are also other constellations.

It can be booted from the network.

It can be booted by a CD.

Best example are recovery CDs from Windows or Live CDs from operating systems. Often used in Linux environment. You can start the CD operating system and work more or less. Even use browsers and internet. But you can’t save it. You work in RAM disk, so to speak. If the PC is switched off, everything is back to zero. (If you save the intermediate results on a permanent memory such as SD card, SSD or disk)

It’s…
There are even systems that are fully functional with a USB storage medium directly on an internal header of the motherboard.
Live systems also do not require hard disks/SSDs, but come out with a USB stick or even a CD/DVD.

You don’t need both.

A SSD is faster – an NVMe is even faster

A HDD is a little slower

NVMe is the protocol of a PCIe hard drive, as well as AHCI is the protocol of a SATA hard drive.

SSD and HDD are hard disk types, one is a hard drive disk from NAND memory modules (so fixed, solid state (disk) -> SSD), the other works mechanically (hard drive disk -> HDD).

So there are NVMe SSD as well as AHCI SSD…

No.

SSD – ok

HDD – ok (but slower)

SSD+HDD – ok
