Frequently Asked Questions Regarding Solid State Drives
What is a Solid State Hard Drive?
Unlike traditional hard drives, Solid State drives utilize flash memory for data storage, which means they contain no moving parts (e.g. spinning disks, moving read/write heads) which make standard hard drive susceptible to physical shock. In addition, because they have no moving parts, SSDs operate virtually silent, have shorter program boot times, and use less power than a standard hard drive.
