Guide To HDD Vs SSD Difference
Do you want to upgrade your PC storage ???
But there is confusion between HDD and SSD so this guide will help you
History of HDD and SSD
HDD
Hard drive technology is very old. In 1985, the size of a hard disk for a PC was 5.25 inches, which is now 3.5 inches for desktops and 2.5 inches for notebooks and laptops.
Today’s hard drives use serial ATA (SATA) whereas earlier they used IDE (Integrated Drive Electronics).
Was used.
The current 3.5-inch hard drive has a maximum capacity of 14TB while the 2.5-inch has a capacity of up to 5 TB.
SSD
In contrast, the history of SSDs is much shorter.
The rise of SSD began in the late 2000’s. The first OLPC XO-1 used a 1 GB SSD followed by the Asus Eee PC 700 series using a 2 GB SSD as a primary store.
Over time the capacity of the SSD increased and saw many new changes, such as the mSATA Mini PCIe SSD card and the aforementioned M.2 SSD format (in SATA and PCIe variants).
But SSD is still found in the 2.5-inch form factor.
The SSD currently has a maximum capacity of 4TB. (Seagate Company offers a 3.5 inch SSD for industrial products such as servers)
Overall: Hard drives win on cost and capacity. And SSD works best if speed, rigidity, form factor, are important factors for you. If it weren’t for price and capacity issues, SSD would be the winner.
