Which one suits your need better  - an SSD or HDD?

SSD and HDD are similar in their physical specifications, but they store data very differently.  A hard disk drive (HDD) uses mechanical platters and a moving read/write head to access data whereas a solid-state drive (SSD) is a faster type of device that stores data on instantly-accessible memory chips.

It is suggested to opt for a mixed system with HDD mass storage and an SSD boot drive. You get a balance of price, performance, and space.
