If you’re running Windows 10 or 11, a current Mac OS, or own a gaming console, a solid-state drive (SSD) is essential for speed and overall performance. SSDs deliver a smoother, faster user experience compared to traditional hard disk drives (HDDs).
While HDDs can still be useful for external storage or backups, they’re not ideal for running your operating system. SSDs are typically 5–10x faster than HDDs, and if you want even more speed, M.2 NVMe SSDs outperform standard SATA SSDs by another 5–10x.
