Ssd vs. Hdd

[bkribbs]

What are the differences between a SSD and a HDD?

SSD are solid state, meaning no moving parts. They are similar to memory cards and USB flash drives.

To add to this.

SDD's don't have any Platter's nor a Spindle - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hard_disk_drive

Erm, yeah. That's what he said...no moving parts.

Yes, obviously. Simply pointed out Platter as it is a vital part to differentiate the two.

I was just stating, the fact had already been covered.

Are you planning on listing each and every moving part?
They would all be vital, since SSD's have none of them...

Yes, obviously. Simply pointed out Platter as it is a vital part to differentiate the two.

Which was covered in my post.

If there are no moving parts one could assume there are no platters and spindles.
