Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Which is faster? External or internal
A
Internal hard drives
B
External hard drives
C
Either A or B
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Internal drives are faster than external drives. There’s no need to worry about the file traveling before it runs into your computer because it’s already built-in. This speeds up connectivity and improves power efficiency because the file is accessed on an internal drive.

Detailed explanation-2: -SSDs are faster, more durable, more compact, quieter, and consume less energy. HDDs are more affordable and may offer easier data recovery in the event of damage. As long as price isn’t the determining factor, SSDs come out on top-especially since modern SSDs are just about as reliable as HDDs.

Detailed explanation-3: -If you need to perform more complicated tasks such as partitioning your computer, an internal hard drive is your best bet. It is much easier to format an internal drive than it is an external drive. On the flipside, an external drive needs no formatting at all, so this may be the most convenient option for your needs.

Detailed explanation-4: -If you’re trying to transfer many gigabytes of data, you’ll find these transfer methods are slow and inconvenient. Cloud storage can handle a larger quantity of data, but upload and download times may be long. An external hard drive, on the other hand, allows you to transfer more data at a faster speed.

Detailed explanation-5: -SATA hard drives are incredibly fast compared to their predecessor, the PATA hard drive, and can write to the disk with an interface rate of 6 Gb/s with a throughput of 600 MB/s.
