Computational device makes difficult golf shot (4,5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

hard drive

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'computational device' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I cannot tell whether this works.

'difficult golf shot' is the wordplay.
'difficult' becomes 'hard' (associated in meaning).
'golf shot' becomes 'drive' (drive is a kind of golf shot).
'hard'+'drive'='HARD DRIVE'

'makes' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for hard drive that I've seen before include "storage facility" , "Computer component" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
