2. SSD (Solid State Drive) Overview

Solid State Drives, or SSDs, are innovative data storage devices that deliver high
performance, reliability, and quality by using NAND Flash memory instead of the
magnetic disks used in traditional Hard Disk Drives (HDDs). SSDs provide very
fast PC booting and application loading speeds and perform exceptionally well
in multi-tasking environments – all while consuming less power, emitting very
little heat, producing no noise, and offering outstanding stability compared to
conventional HDDs. Please visit www.samsung.com/SSD for more information
on SSD technology.
