The
evolution of storage technology has brought us the SSD. Solid state drives
have replaced traditional electromechanical parts with flash memory. So what's it all about....read on!!!
Faster random
access times due to absence of slow parts and lower read latency
times
due to lack of disk seek time.
Consistent read
performance because physical location of data is irrelevant. Overall,
solid state drives are faster, quieter and they use less power than
traditional hard disk drives since there are no electromechanical parts
moving around, using up energy, and making noise. SSD's make memory-intensive
activities, such as PC gaming, video editing and photo editing snappier than
ever.
