Но Solid-State Disk ворвался в нашу жизни и начинает понемногу оседать в технических новинках. Macbook Air не стал исключением. SSD – это чип памяти, являющийся аналогом флеш накопителей. Он использует кэш память, как и HDD, для того, чтобы производить чтение и запись информации, а также этот тип жёстких дисков заметно увеличил скорость чтения данных. Для того, чтобы лучше разобраться в SSD я постараюсь выделить его преимущества и недостатки перед HDD. Target: English Resolving disputes about HDD and SSD in the Macbook Air. What is an SSD? Until recently no one has heard of this term. However the Solid-State Disk has rushed into our lives and gradually started to take its place amongst other gadgets, and the Macbook Air was no exception. SSD is a memory chip analogous to a flash drive. It uses cache memory as an HDD to read and write information and this type of hard drive has distinctly sped up data reading. To understand the SSD better I will try to point out its advantages and disadvantages over HDD.
