Both Deck and Pack, but using PP to deliver Final test report, Really!
Thought that was bad, until I arrived on the next project to see the Project plan had been done by a cartoonist, I kid you not
Now nothing surprises me, funny they were surprised when they realised no one had ordered the hardware and the project had to be put on hold for a few months. They had missed the few gray boxes among the flowers at that quality gate.

The correct answer is whatever your client calls it when they ask for one.

Back in the good old days, a pack was a multi-platter removable disk.
I'm sure we called something a deck as well but I can't remember what. Cards were before my time so I don't think it was that.
