What is an SSD?
An SSD, or solid-state drive, is a data storage device that uses flash memory to store data and operate without any moving mechanical parts. Unlike traditional hard disk drives (HDDs) that use spinning magnetic platters to store and read data, SSDs have no moving parts which allows them to work faster and more quietly than conventional HDDs.

Types of SSDs
There are several types of SSDs available in the market today based on their interface and form factor.

SATA SSDs: SATA or serial ATA Solid State Drives (SSD) use the standard SATA interface to connect to a computer or laptop motherboard. They are the most common type of SSDs currently available and provide a significant speed boost over traditional HDDs. SATA SSDs come in 2.5-inch and M.2 form factors.

NVMe SSDs: NVMe or non-volatile memory express SSDs use the PCIe interface to deliver much faster speeds than SATA SSDs. They are popular among enthusiasts, professionals and power users. NVMe SSDs mainly come in M.2 form factor but also have an add-on card form factor.
