SSD

SSD :- A solid-state driveis a data storage device using integrated circuit assemblies as memory to store data persistently. SSD technology uses electronic interfaces compatible with traditional block input/output (I/O) hard disk drives, thus permitting simple replacement in common applications. SSDs have no moving (mechanical) components. This distinguishes them from traditional electromechanical magnetic disks such as hard disk drives (HDDs) or floppy disks, which contain spinning disks and movable read/write heads. SSDs are still roughly seven to eight times more expensive per unit of storage than HDDs. SSDs use NAND-based flash memory, which retains data without power. SSD includes a controller that incorporates the electronics that bridge the NAND memory components to the host computer. SSDs have no moving parts and therefore are basically silent, although electric noise from the circuits may occur. Susceptibility to environmental factors-No moving ...
