To figure out why you need to replace Sony VAIO hard drive with SSD, you need to know the difference between HDD and SSD first.
HDD, short for hard disk drive, is a data storage device that uses magnetic storage to store and retrieve digital information using one or more rigid rapidly rotating platters coated with magnetic material. The platters are paired with magnetic heads, usually arranged on a moving actuator arm, which read and write data to the platter surfaces. Just because of this, HDD works with a loud voice.
SSD, the abbreviation of solid storage drive, is a solid-storage device that uses integrated circuit assemblies as memory to store data persistently. SSDs have no moving mechanical components. Compared with traditional HDDs, SSDs are typically more resistant to physical shock, run silently, and have a faster read and write speed.
