An SSD is faster, more reliable, and consumes less power than a traditional hard drive, which helps improve system speed and boot time.
What else can I help you with?
What is directly tied to the speed of the computer?
The RPM of your hard drive. A 7000RPM drive is faster than a 5000RPM drive, and an SSD is faster than all Platter hard drives.
What is a 750GB SSD hybrid hard drive?
It means that it has both SSD drive in for caching and frequently used files and plate-based hard drive for all other files.
What is a Seagate 500gb Solid State Hybrid drive?
A hybrid hard drive is a Hard Drive that has a SSD built into it also. There is currently only one manufacturer that does it- Seagate. The Hard drive is a standard 7200 rpm drive(in flavours of 250, 320 and 500gb) and the SSD component is 4gig. The 4 gig ssd does not sound like much but the impact it can have is enormous. It has some onboard chip that evaluates your running processes and then puts your frequently used ones onto the ssd. I have a mac with a 5400rpm drive. I swapped it out with a hybrid drive and the increase in speed is great. Much much cheaper than ssd's and in my opinion hybrid drives are going to dominate the market for the next few years until SSD prices come into line with current Hard Drives.
Why is an SSD hard drive more reliable under rugged conditions than and IDE hard drive?
ide hard drives are the old, slower, less capacity drives. sata are the modern, faster, large capacity drives. and ssd are the new, MUCH faster, medium capacity drives. ssd stands for Solid State Drive. it has no moving pieces inside. its basically a flash drive but in hard drive form. ssd's are also very durable u can drop them and they wont be damaged. ide drives have moving parts in them therefor the read/write head can scratch the disk easily if it is dropped and if shaked very hard it cna be damaged also. ssd's are VERY expensive though.
What is a drive that uses both magnetic and SSD technologies called?
Hybrid hard drive
What is an SSD?
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
What are the differences between RAM ROM and hard drive?
RAM is Random Access Memory. It holds open programs and files. The more programs and files that you have open, the slower your computer gets. When you save a file, the program stays open on RAM, but the file gets saved to the Hard Drive. ROM is Read Only Memory. It is memory that is hard to change, modify, and update. SSD - Solid State Drive. Solid State drives stores/transfers files at a faster rate than Hard Disk Drives. They are also less volatile than HDD's. HDD - Hard Disk Drive. A Hard Disk Drive stores your files on a hard disk. It is slower than an SSD and is more volatile than SSD too and should avoid magnets. Hope this helps
Can a laptop have a 64GB solid state drive and a 250GB hard drive?
Most laptops are simply not large enough to hold more than one hard drive internally. Supposing that one did, yes, it is quite possible to have both an SSD and a traditional hard drive in it.
Which one is better SSD or HHD?
SSD is better than HDD because of its analogy which makes it faster.
What is HDD SSD?
HDD stands for Hard Disk Drive. SDD stands for Solid State Drive.
How is data stored in a computer?
it is stored on a ahrd drive (hdd) or a solid state drive (ssd) a hard drive has more storage in it (usually going up to 3 terabytes, or 3042gb) a solid state hard drive has less storage, but better read/write speds.
When you upgrade your hard drive to an SSD drive is it possible to run your prrograms from your old hard drive or will you need to re-install the games onto the SSD to use?
If you're replacing the old drive with the new one - you'll have to re-install every program - and copy any saved game (and other personal data) onto the new SSD drive.If you're adding an SSD drive as an extra storage device, you can leave all your programs on the old drive - and just move any user data to the SSD. It's entirely up to you as to how you go about it.
