But, writes in an SSD are much slower than in an HDD. Reads in an SSD are much faster than in an HDD. But, writes in an SSD are much slower than in an HDD.

Hoping it is at least as big as the average hard drive installed in laptops. Curious how big (Gigs) the SSD is. Hoping it is at least as big as the average hard drive installed in laptops.

Harddrives have a limit too yaknow :) Last I checked, the max write/read was some astronomical number. Harddrives have a limit too yaknow :)

Access speed is lightning fast. Problem has been Read and Write speed. It has been slower than traditional hard drives.

How many times can you Read/Write to these RAND drives before they lose memory ? Isn’t flash-based memory not as secure with your data as
