HDD and SSD
The hard drive is the heart of any server, computer or laptop. Apart from its obvious purpose - to install the operating system that allows you to use your computer - it can be used to store essential data, partition it and effectively manage the information you save on your computer. To affect the performance of the device, it is a good idea to fit an appropriate capacity HDD (hard disk drive) or SSD (solid state drive) if you need speed rather than capacity.
For those who use laptops and computers for home use - mainly entertainment, browsing the internet, or storing the most necessary programs and data files, SSDs of up to 1TB or 2TB will suffice. For computers used to work with large amounts of data, it is recommended to choose internal hard drives with larger capacities. For servers and special purpose computers, storage capacities as high as 10TB, 12TB, 14TB, 16TB, 18TB, 20TB are available. Higher capacities like 22TB and 24TB are planned soon.
Explore types of HDDs and SSDs
The most important distinction between hard disk drives is the division into HDD and SSD. The first are designed for storing large capacity files and less currently used, because their construction (platter) is characterised by slower access times, i.e. files load more slowly. SSDs are based on flash memory (semiconductors), which is much faster and allows instant access to selected files.
An internal hard disk drive (HDD) can be equipped with either a SATA connector - the oldest and most popular in desktop computers - or a SAS connector for server solutions. Today there are still 2.5" and 3.5" drives available but the smaller solutions are becoming less popular at the expense of SSDs.
SSDs are a little more complicated, as the form factor (size of the drive or its construction) and the interfaces are important to the device. The interfaces currently used are SATA, SAS, NVMe and PCIe (mainly for HH-HL cards). As far as the form factor is concerned, we can mention 2.5', 3.5', HH-HL, M.2 (mainly m2 in length 2280 and 22110), U.2 and U.3
