Unlike conventional hard disk drives, which are made up of fragile mechanical parts that could fail due to the slightest shock, overheating, or even humidity - SSDs rely on semiconductor chips that store data using non-volatile memory. When it comes to reliability and durability, it’s no secret why solid-state drives are increasingly bypassing traditional HDDs in popularity.Īlthough it’s not impossible to encounter a few SSD problems, SSD failures are much more unlikely to happen when compared to HDDs.
