If you're looking to keep your data safe and improve the performance of your system, here are four reasons why you should consider an SSD upgrade. 

More durable

With traditional hard drives, the continuous motion generated by small moving parts creates heat, which is a leading factor in hard drive failure. Because SSDs don't have moving parts, they're more reliable and more shock-resistant than traditional hard drives. They're also more resistant to common drops, accidents, and wear and tear because they don't have the small, damage-susceptible parts of traditional hard drives. If you happened to drop your laptop and it had an SSD installed, your screen would probably break before the SSD.

Faster

Without moving parts to slow your computer down, SSDs aren't just faster; they're ready to go when you are. SSDs offer instant-load performance, meaning faster boot times, faster application loading times, and better system responsiveness.

Easier to carry

Because SSDs weigh less than hard drives, they're more mobile-friendly; making your laptop lighter and easier to carry. With lightweight components and solid construction, SSDs are better suited for the rigours of constant travel.

More efficient

An advantage of SSDs is that they have no moving parts, as a result, they require less power to operate, which means you'll get longer battery life. They're even quieter, too.
