SSDs use Flash EEPROM to simulate the operation of a hard disk drive, without moving parts.
That would be a solid state hard drive, or SSHD.
This computer's memory type is: DDR2 SDRAM, with a hard drive capacity of 160GB (solid state disc flash memory). For further reference the cpu speed is 1.60 Hz and internal memory is 2048 MB.
ATA and Solid State are two different things. ATA is a connector type with SATA being it's newer form. Solid State is a type of drive medium which the data is stored on. A typical Hard Drive uses spinning platters while a Solid State drive uses flash media with no moving parts.
An SSD (Solid State Drive) is a type of hard drive that uses no moving parts, but rather stores data on Flash chips, similar to a Flash drive or CompactFlash.Solid State Drive
Flash drive
According to the manufacturer, the Toshiba Portege R500-S5004 has an Intel Core Duo U7600 processor, 2GB of DDR2 SDRAM, a solid state 64Gb hard drive, a built-in 802.11n wireless card, a DVD SuperMulti read/write drive, and a 12.1" widescreen monitor.
Hdd (hard disk drive) a few terabytes vs a couple hundred gigabytes 100 times more approximately. The tradeoff is solid state is better and newer. Hdd has capacity.
Flash Memory Cards
Solid state backing storage, or backup storage, is a way of storing information that has no moving parts. The small, plug-in modules often called USB drives or thumb drives are a common example of this type of storage.
The amount of data/information the flash drive can store at one time.
Small computer drive is that type of drive to whom has been provided less space of memory in the comparison of the other drive which has more memory storage capacity.
