The chances are high that the next time you go to buy a laptop, you'll have the selection of whether a approved mechanical hard drive or an Ssd. On the surface, the numbers would appear to favour mechanical drives; even the cheapest notebooks tend to pack in at least 320Gb into a drive, whereas the Ssd selection is typically under 256Gb, and often very small. That's what you'll see on the in-store sticker, but comprehension what an Ssd is, and why they're becoming more prevalent in the consumer notebook market can help you make an informed buying decision, rather than just finding at the level storehouse numbers.
Ssd stands for Solid State Drive, and unlike former mechanical hard disk drives, they're not a bunch of spinning platters and an Lp-style read head, instead reducing all that spellbinding clutter into a what is essentially a bunch of microchips. Why would that be a good thing? Well, for a start, because that makes them substantially more defiant to shock and bumps. Drop or bump a working laptop while the read head is spinning and you may lose data or crash the machine; with no spellbinding parts this is no real issue for an Ssd. The lack of spellbinding parts also makes most modern Ssd drives notably fast, leading to quicker startup times in particular, but also improved application carrying out in cases where the application can benefit from the Ssds write structure; not every application can.

No spellbinding parts also means no whirring noises and a reduced heat footprint, which leads to fewer spinning fans and even less working noise in operation. An Ssd-based notebook at the time of writing still won't be silent, but it'll often be a lot quieter than a mechanical hard drive based notebook. All that can also make Ssds more power efficient, which for a notebook should equate to longer battery life. Finally, the lack of spellbinding parts and confidence on chips rather than platters makes it possible to create Ssds that are smaller than former hard drives, although to date most manufacturers of installable Ssds have opted for former hard drive sizes in order to make them easier to fit. So what's the downside? As mentioned, the price per gigabyte for an Ssd is still a lot higher than for mechanical drives, which is why Ssd options usually whether ask a price bump or storehouse drop, and typically both. There's some concern about the life cycles of Ssd drives compared to their mechanical counterparts, although you'd be wise to be backing up all of your data in any case; any drive can fail, and it's no ifs ands or buts just a matter of when.
There's been a huge drop in the prices of Ssds in the past concentrate of years, just as the storehouse capacities of those same drives has gone up, and that's pretty much exactly why they're becoming a more commonplace selection within notebooks. It's worth inspecting the Ssd selection if the notebook you're after needs to be thin, light and quick, but for the occasion those who need large media libraries or primarily use a notebook as a desktop transfer are probably still a limited better served with the former mechanical type.
