Until recently, PC buyers had very little choice about what kind of storage to get in a laptop or desktop. If you bought an ultraportable, you likely had a solid-state drive (SSD) as the primary drive (C: on Windows, Macintosh HD on a Mac). Every other desktop or laptop form factor had a hard disk drive (HDD). Now, you can configure your system with either an HDD or SSD, or in some cases both.
If you want the fastest storage you can get for your PC, then you want a solid-state drive (SSD). But don't try to buy one the way you would a hard drive. Form Factor The vast majority of SSDs come in the 2.5-inch form factor rather than the 3.5-inch size you'll see for most hard drives.f you're buying an SSD for a laptop or for a very tiny nettop, you may also want to pay attention to its thickness: Most SSDs are between 7mm and 9.5mm thick, but some can be as thick as 12mmand they might not fit in really tight enclosures.
