What is the differences between magnetic hard drives and solid state hard drive?

Traditional magnetic hard drives use platters that spin and a magnetic head that applies negative and positive charges to the platters to record data in 1s and 0s. SSD drives are essentially flash drives similar to what is used in iPods. "Switches" in each memory "bank" are turned on and off with an electrical signal to record the data in 1s and 0s. SSD is faster because it does not have to "seek" for the location of the data on the hard drive.
