Solid State Drives
An SSD is a type of mass storage device similar to a hard disk drive (HDD). ... Unlike hard drives, SSDs do not have any moving parts (which is why they are called solid state drives). Instead of storing data on magnetic platters, SSDs store data using flash memory.
It is a data storage device that uses 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. SSDs do not employ any moving mechanical components, which distinguishes them from traditional magnetic disks such as hard disk drives, which are electromechanical devices containing spinning disks and movable read/write heads.
Compared with electromechanical disks, SSDs are typically less susceptible to physical shock, are silent, and have lower access time and latency. Typically because of these features, SSD drives can be the fastest I/O in the market today in standard hard drive form factor.
