What is SSD (Solid State Drive)
Solid State drive is the next generation storage media.
SSD is the same technology which is used in the Pen drives, memory cards and in phone memories.
But in SSD the quality of the components are better then pen drives and memory cards.
So they are more reliable then these devices.
This is reason behind the increased cost of the SSD.
Where as HDD uses a magnetic disk technology having a moving part which makes it less reliable and sensitive.
Comparison between SSD & HDD
See the below table for the difference between SSD and HDD.
It will give you an idea that which drive is better for your PC.
The very first upgrade which we are suggesting is to consider having a Solid State Drive (SSD).
There are several reasons why you should move to SSD from HDD which we are going to discuss here.
This will in turn lower down the power consumption.
Many people confuse the word performance to that of the overall performance of the machine.
It must not be so because it is only concerned with the data loading, retrieving and storing issues.
For all kinds of issues related to data transfer or moving, the SSD must be your next choice.
Hitching Reduction
The word hitching, belongs to a very versatile yet special fraternity called gamers.
Thus causing pauses in the gameplay.
Reliability
The SSD is a pretty pricey storage medium which comes with no movable parts.
The jot down of technology it uses is the futuristic flash memory for the storage and retrieval of data.
It ensures data protection even if it is jolted while in a bag or drops down mistakenly.
Unlike the HDD which takes a moment of jolt and all the data is lost.
SSD provides ultra-reliability with added performance and flashy storage of data.
Noise and Heat
Since it comes with no moving parts, it makes no noise at all.
