Detailed explanation-1: -Because it has no moving parts, an SSD is not subject to the same mechanical failures that can occur in HDDs. SSDs are also quieter and consume less power. And because SSDs weigh less than hard drives, they are a good fit for laptop and mobile computing devices.
Detailed explanation-2: -Without moving parts, SSDs are more durable, run cooler and use less energy.
Detailed explanation-3: -SSDs are faster, quieter, smaller, consume less energy, and more durable. HDDs are cheaper, have more storage capacity, and offer easier data recovery if damaged.
Detailed explanation-4: -SSD stands for Solid State Drive, and it’s like an oversized, more sophisticated version of a USB memory stick. Like a USB memory drive, there are no moving parts, and the data is stored in microchips. Storing data on a chip is what makes the SSD so much faster.
Detailed explanation-5: -Durability and Reliability of an SSD. SSDs are Faster than Hard Drives. Power and Energy Efficient. Less Weight and No Noise. More Practical Sizes/Form Factors.
