Difference between Hard Disk and SSD
Difference between HDD and SSD Introduction Hard disk drive (HDD) A hard disk drive (HDD) is an old storage device that uses mechanical platters and a moving read/write head to access data. Solid-state drive (SSD) A solid-state drive (SSD) is a modern faster type of device that has no moving parts and it stores data on instantly-accessible memory chips.

There are no distinctions away limit. • You can get HDDs and SSDs in comparative sizes. Normally the range is 128 GB to 2 TB.

Image source: Google image HDD or SSD – Which is Faster? • SSDs are extremely fast in all areas, but the speed difference is more pronounced when performing certain tasks, such as: • Sequential read/write operations • Small “4K” read/write operations Image source: Google image Power Draw / Battery Life • SSD (Solid State Drive) has Less power draw, averages 2 – 3 watts, resulting in 30+ minute battery boost. • HDD (Hard Disk Drive) has More power draw, averages 6 – 7 watts and therefore uses more battery Image source: Google image Operating System Boot Time • SSD (Solid State Drive) require around 10-13 seconds average boot up time. • HDD (Hard Disk Drive) require around 30-40 seconds average boot up time Image source: Google image Heat Produced • SDD has lower power draw and no moving parts so little heat is produced • HDD doesn’t produce much heat, but it will have a measurable amount more heat than an SSD due to moving parts and higher power draw Image source: Google image Magnetism Affected? • An SSD is safe from any effects of magnetism. • Magnets can erase data from HDD.
