Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
The most durable storage device as it has not moving parts
A
Solid State Storage
B
Magnetic Storage
C
Optical Storage
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Durability. SSDs are more shock-resistant and can handle heat better than HDDs because they do not have moving parts. Power consumption. SSDs need less power to operate than HDDs due to their lack of moving parts.

Detailed explanation-2: -Solid state devices Solid state technology is used in storage media such as solid state drives (SSD) and USB flash drives. The technology is called solid state as it does not have any moving parts, unlike magnetic and optical devices.

Detailed explanation-3: -Solid state devices use non-volatile random access memory (RAM) to store data indefinitely. They tend to have much faster access times than other types of device and, because they have no moving parts, are more durable.

Detailed explanation-4: -Generally, SSDs are more durable than HDDs in extreme and harsh environments because they don’t have moving parts such as actuator arms. SSDs can withstand accidental drops and other shocks, vibration, extreme temperatures, and magnetic fields better than HDDs.

Detailed explanation-5: -Solid-state drives have no moving parts and information is saved onto integrated circuits (ICs). Although SSDs serve the same functions as hard drives, their internal parts are different. SSDs store data using flash memory, allowing them to access data much faster than hard drives.
