There are currently two main hard drive technologies sold: mechanical (HDD) and solid-state drives (SSD). If your laptop has a mechanical hard drive failure you have the option to exchange your failed hard drive for an SSD hard drive.

  • Speed. An SSD hard drive is about 10 times faster than a normal hard drive.
  • Energy efficiency. An SSD hard drive uses approximately 70% less energy than a mechanical hard drive. In an SSD there are no moving parts.
  • Durability. The useful life of an SSD hard drive is around 9-10 years.
  • Endurance. Laptops are computers that move, often on. Mechanical hard drives don't like bumps, drops, and vibrations at all.
  • Temperature. Having no moving parts, SSD hard drives heat up much less = last longer.

  • Data recovery. In the event of a failure in an SSD hard drive, the data recovery process is more complicated as it does not have internal platters that can be disassembled. In this case you have to work with the memory chipsets.
  • The price. The price/gig is more expensive than a mechanical hard drive.
