Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -SSD storage is much faster than its HDD equivalent. HDD storage is made up of magnetic tape and has mechanical parts inside. They’re larger than SSDs and much slower to read and write.
Detailed explanation-2: -The fastest CD/DVD/BD optical drives spin at 10k RPM at most. Really high-end magnetic drives spin at 15k RPM, although consumer HDDs (and bulk-storage enterprise HDDs) typically spin at 7200 or 5400 RPM.
