SSD vs. HDD: What’s the Difference?
Until recently, PC buyers had very little choice for what kind of file storage they got with their laptop, ultrabook, or desktop. If you bought an ultrabook or ultraportable, you likely had a solid-state drive (SSD) as the primary drive (C: on Windows, Macintosh HD on a Mac). Every other desktop or laptop form factor had a hard disk drive (HDD). Now, you can configure your system with either an HDD, SSD, or in some cases both. But how do you choose? We explain the differences between SSDs and HDDs, and walk you through the advantages and disadvantage of both to help you come to your decision.
HDD and SSD Explained
The traditional spinning hard drive (HDD) is the basic nonvolatile storage on a computer. That is, it doesn’t “go away” like the data on the system memory when you turn the system off. Hard drives are essentially metal platters with a magnetic coating. That coating stores your data, whether that data consists of weather reports from the last century, a high-definition copy of the Star Wars trilogy, or your digital music collection. A read/write head on an arm accesses the data while the platters are spinning in a hard drive enclosure.

Preventative Computer Maintenance
The best way to avoid major problems is to stop them from happening in the first place. That’s where preventative maintenance comes in.
A good preventative maintenance program incorporates a comprehensive backup plan, measures to secure the system against malicious viruses, as well as periodic hardware and software maintenance. The goal is to reduce the likelihood of hardware failures, extend the useful life of your system, minimize system crashes caused by outdated drivers and other software problems, secure the system against viruses and other malware, and most importantly, prevent crucial data loss.
