HDD more delicate of ssd?

Hi at all.
I have an now old 110 with 8gb of ssd.
It's slow but I use it in every condition.
I'll like a 150 but my question is this netbook with an HDD is secure or if I use it in punching conditions the HDD will be broken early?
Who has this Netbook what says?
TNX.

 

In theory a SSD drive should be more reliable then a standard rotational hard drive. There are no moving parts to wear or crash. The other question would be life span. According to most manufacturers the life span of SSD drive should be about 1 million cycles Although some only state 300,000. But most SSD drives have protection against bad sectors and can control or "hide" them better then a rotational disk can. I haven't really checked the cycles of the 8gb SSD in the AA1 but I am sure someone on here has and can report.

It all depends on how you use your laptop. If you are constantly juggling it around while it is turned on, SSD would suit better. And of course, SSD drives use a lot less power then a standard rotational drive does giving longer battery usage. If you are looking for capacity though, you of course cannot beat a rotational hard drive, at this time.

 

TNX garrettp, all you have said is right, but I would like to know if someone has some problems after 6-7 month.
Bye.

 

So, you are asking about problem with the rotational hard drive correct? Are you saying you are thinking of upgrading to that version of the AA1?

As for rotational hard drives, it is a toss up for laptops. I have a lot that still work and a few that have had problems. In fact, out of probably 50 laptops I have owned and sold about 7 have had hard drive failures. Of that 7 only two where recoverable with the bad sectors blocked. That does not include computers that I have worked on for others. But I would assume that if there where 50 SSD drives the failure number would probably be 0 to maybe 2.

Now most, if not all, SSD drives will automatically correct a bad sector.
