SSD better than HDD
This is the myth. One of the biggest myths in computing is that an SSD (solid state drive) is always better than a standard HDD (hard disk drive). This idea dates back to when we started building computers. We could fit more data into a smaller amount of space with an SSD, so it seemed like these drives were superior when comparing them against their traditional HDD counterparts. However, this myth has been around for so long and lived on despite numerous setbacks in the industry, that today many people still believe it's valid. The thing is that while an SSD can hold more data in less space, it also has a number of drawbacks that make it less desirable than its HDD counterpart. Yes, an SSD performs faster than an HDD, but only when you send it small amounts of data. The moment your computer starts loading large pieces of data like video games or movies, the speed at which the data is read from the drive slows down substantially. The difference between both drives becomes even sma...
