To sum up a SSD. Accesses data way faster, uses less energy (useful for laptop) and because it's doesn't spin, it pretty much can't be damaged by dropping, it doesn't loose speed over time like a HDD and has a much longer life span! Benchmark comparisons to a HDD can be found through Google...


HDD is used and in like new condition. Had it for 2 months. Selling because my laptop has only one HDD bay nd I want to upgrade to a larger SDD.
