Solid State Drive (SSD) versus Hard Disk Drive (HDD)

When approaching the issue of storage, you can choose to utilize a solid state drive or a hard disk drive. Traditionally, computer data was stored on HDD’s, which is a spinning metal disk with a magnetic coating. A read/write head on an arm accesses the data as the disk spins. An SSD device differs in the fact that it is comprised of interconnected flash memory chips that retain data and has no spinning disk, or any other moving parts. The first primary storage devices that we would call an SSD was made in the late 2000’s. With the rising popularity and capabilities of laptops, SSD technology developed to follow the market. Eventually, the SSD became standardized on the 2.5 inch notebook form factor, making it possible to easily replace a 2.5 inch HDD drive with a2.5 inch SSD drive.
