Hard drives are your computer's 'long term memory' thats there whenever you start it up. The hard drive holds the operating system, all of your settings, all of your files (like music, web browser, pictures, etc).
Traditional hard drives are boxes that hold metal discs inside of them. These metal disks hold data in the form of a magnetic charge and they constantly spin when your computer is reading data. As such they are called mechanical disks.
Solid State hard drives do not contain any moving parts. They contain flash memory similar to a USB thumb drive, but which has an extremely high level of performance and speed.
Solid state hard drives mean that anything saved to them including programs can start up extremely fast (most computers with solid state drives can boot in a minute or less), but they cannot hold very much data (like movies and games).
If you save videos to your computer or do a lot of gaming, it's worthwhile to install both a solid state and a mechanical hard drive in your computer. The SSD will hold the operating system and some of the programs, and the traditional (mechanical) hard drive will hold the games and videos.
