What's so special about these new hard drives? They are the future of speed. They might not have the same capacity like the mechanical traditional hard disks, but since they have no moving parts, information can be accessed in just 0.1 ms. The benchmarks are clear, under all read and write conditions the SSD hard disk beats the mechanical one.
With so many brands, what's the right for you? The faster, the better. The best way to decide which SSD drive is the fastest is to see the benchmarks on the web. Some sites dedicate themselves to tests computer components and share the results. PC Worls shows the fastest SSD drive today is faster than any other mechanical hard disk. In their tests the Windows boot speed is three times faster.
Some people say SSD had the problem of limited number of reads and writes. It's true. But the number of reads and writes a home user usually makes during the warranty time is enough to make the life of the SSD probably just a little bit shorter than the mechanical hard disk.
Today the fastest hard drives "clock" at 550 MB/s. That's enough to transfer the equivalent of a CD in little more than a second, even if the files are not sequential. The fastest mechanical hard disks don't beat the 200 MS/s mark not even for sequential reading or writing. For random access the numbers shrink.
