The distribution of the time until failure of a hard drive is best described as **skewed or asymmetric (depending on the shape of the histogram)**. So, the **range and interquartile range (IQR)** are both appropriate measures of variation.
If the histogram shows a longer tail on one side (for example, if it has a tail extending towards longer times), "positively skewed" might be appropriate. Conversely, if it has a tail extending towards shorter times, it may be "negatively skewed." Without seeing the actual histogram, adjustments may need to be made to this response based on its shape.
