Standard HDD Versus Solid State Drive - Video
Check out this video comparison on a Sony laptop between a standard HDD and a Solid State Hard Drive.
The Notebook used is a Sony Tz91 which comes with the option to have a solid state hard drive as your main drive.
The other laptop uses a standard 5400 rpm hard drive, both laptops are running Windows XP, and the one with the solid state drive boots up 12 seconds faster.
This is a pretty amazing difference, there is just one problem, adding a 64GB solid state drive to this laptop will cost you an extra $1,000 (about £500).
As with everything as solid state drives become more popular the price is going to fall, I wonder how much they will cost in a year from now.
