I always hear people saying that SSD’s are faster than hard drives, but when I put them both on a desk, neither of them moved. What a lie.
😂
lmaoooooooo
underrated!
people like u make life bearable LOL
I think you have to throw them
Have you tried turning them off and back on?
Simple solution:
Have a SSD and Hard Drive.
Some Guy on a ComputerSSD ONLY IS SIMPLE . YOU wrong
+Some Guy on a Computer What is the reason you need both? Why can't you just have SSD?
+Grimnir Reaper Because SSDs have far more limited storage capacity. Plus limited write cycles. Did you even watch the video? :P
When it comes to system/boot drives an SSD absolutely slays a HDD (typically speaking but for storing large files or installing many games a HDD is the better option and won't yield noticeably worst performance.
+Some Guy on a Computer That's how I'm running my laptop. Installed an SSD system drive the other day. The OS plus regular app installations are on there whereas games and files go to the HDD the machine originally came with. Performance was already good. Since installing the SSD i've yet to see system lag or slow-down.
+J Ryan you are way wrong. SSD will almost always outlast HDD. NO MOVING PARTS
You look alot like that guy from LinusTechTips
that is him
+Luis Hernandez Did you by any chance hear a 'wooshing' sound as you read that comment?
TheBounceMaster
lmfao
+MashAllTheButtons :3 nah I think he looks a lot more like that guy from ChannelSuperFun
He looks more like that guy from TipsTechLinus
I googled what a dolphin was because I thought a dolpin was a term used for broken hard drives or something, I feel so dumb
xD
you fucking idiot xd
LOL!
0_o i thaugh that dolfin wasnthe name of the emulator of wii and gamecube
oh my god
Best option: Buy a 120gb SSD just for Windows and a 1TB HDD to store your shit
only 1 tb???
TheSeaTurtle5 1tb is more than enough, thats 1000gb of storage. if u use ur PC just for gaming then this should be MORE THAN PLENTY.
PC-chco master umm... okay i've got 1.5 tb of games on my computer and alot more of other shit... and don't tell me how much 1tb is..
What windows do you have that need 120 gigs!?
OS about 30+ gigs, Programs that need's speed about the rest (including games)
Thank you , from a newbie with no knowledge on computer
For the time they were now there better for gaming
wbrooks1234 _ if you know a lot about pcs my build I found on the Internet not a pre built but on pc part picker.com has a SSD and hdd do I need both?
@@Akgaming-uu7bv getting a ssd is better for load times on games but i would recommend having a bigger ssd for your games and os and have the smaller hdd for music,pictures,videos and other stuff like that
wbrooks1234 _ what’s your insta I’ll send you my build
Uh what
I bought the SanDisk 960GB SSD for $250, and it dropped down by almost $50 in the past few months. SSDs are finally getting a lot cheaper.
+Sudhir Dixit I don't think the same tho
Ha I got the same ssd for $160 on prime day :P
Just dont tell me if the quality of SSD NAND Chip will be cheaper too, that would be a bad news. LOL
Really?
Cheaper then it use to be. Last mont I get a Samsung 500GB for around $170. But I wont save my critical data in SSD, I can die without notice. That happen with my foxcon mini pc. The 120GB SSD that equip in that mechine die before pass 1 year waranty periode. Foxcon send replacement SSD and I paid $5 for shiping but I lost whole of my data that use tobe save in the broken SSD.
So basically:
SSD for the OS
HDD for the rest of the files, including games.
Thats how it used to be, now you can usually get away with nearly everything on an SSD and just the really large games and other program on a standard HDD.
*****
HDD's
HDD, and you want more than one for RAID. One platter will be slow as molasses. You want 2-4 1TB or 2TB drives for RAID.
SSD is still a long way away from actually grabbing my attention, they cost too much and have too little space.
Don't forget about the longevity vs writes
gameboytj The reason why I don't like SSDs is that they don't give signs of failure like a mechanical hard drive mechanical hard drives when they start to fail they will tell you an SSD? That will just straight up shit itself without any notification given whatsoever
$160 for a 256gb SSD in 2014
$30 for the 240gb SSD I just got on Amazon in 2019.

Why should God let you into Heaven?
Have you lied (even once in your entire life), looked with lust (sexual desire), dishonoured parents, stolen anything, had hatred towards someone, had premarital sex, adultery etc If you answered yes to any one of the above then you are a sinner like the rest of us.
So, I ask you again, why should God let a sinner into Heaven?
Sinners don’t go to heaven they go to hell, But we are blessed to have Jesus (God incarnate) die on the Cross and rise from the dead. If you Repent (forsake your sinful, unholy ways and live righteous instead) & Believe in Jesus as God, you will be seen as a Saint and welcomed into Heaven.

This is the most trolly, non-serious conversation ever... I love it.
This happened to me today on an 18 months old portable HDD. This is the first time an HDD has ever failed on me. I've just ordered a portable SSD as a replacement as I have a big digital library and I wanted to see the difference. Wish me luck! 🤔
Jadon S SSDs can be much faster, up to 1.2 gb/s. 150 mb/s is very slow for an SSD
😐😐😐
As of April 7th 2020,
It's crazy how SSD's have come such a long way since 2014. $120 dollars today could get you a 1TB SSD or a 5TB HDD, HDDs still store more but SSDs are not far behind, and with the speed of M.2 or a SATA port its almost impossible to go back to HDDs even if they are larger incapacity.

@@sirfanatical8763 Well this is not accidental man
God wants to have a relationship with you. Once a believer you become adopted into the family and a son of God (small s) and the Holy Spirit lives in you and helps you in life. When you die you will be joined to your Father in heaven (God). Us Christians see God’s judgement towards sin and His love of obedience. God (Jesus) is personal. [otherwise, you are a child of the devil and will join him in hell]

WOW UR RIGHT
SSD = More speed and more money but HDD = more storage and more break.
Don't be brash there are SSD's out there with more storage it is just much more expensive, HDD's don't have a single advantage over SSD's other than price
Ｓａｄ Ｐａｎｄａ capasity ... lets see a 3,4 or 6tb SSD
4 tb semiaccurate.com/2013/06/23/lsi-puts-out-a-4tb-pcie3-ssd/
Ｓａｄ Ｐａｎｄａ
Any SSD over 1 TB is way out of the price range of the average consumer (and 512GB models are borderline pushing it for most). The cost per GB is a few cents on a regular HDD compared to $.60 - $.80 per GB on an SSD. HDD's still maintain the advantage of price and total capacity compared to an SSD ($100-200 for a 1-4TB HDD drive, compared to $800-2000+ for a 1-4TB SSD).
The only benefit an average user will see is overall speed and responsiveness to their system (no FPS boost). Most people right now only need a small capacity SSD for an OS and commonly used programs.
Also, that link you provided: $28000 for a 4TB PCIe SSD. Completely not worth it.
Jon Just bought a Samsung evo 500gb for 280$ a few days ago on a flash sale on ebay. The prices are coming down.

A very good easy to understand video on SSDs vs HDDs!
Helpfull, sharp, to the point, clear, just what i was looking to understand, and i got it. Thank you!
Even more simply put:
Use SSD for your Operating system (Windows, etc), games, and programs.
Use a hard drive to store huge files like movies, music, and photos.
FF Legend thank you
ahhh nicceeeeee thats good cuz im not really gon install huge files like movies music or photos ima just use this for games so this is better for me
lol for movies, music, and photos better just get a hard disc or even a pendrive. HDD isnt really necessary thoo.
@@nurwardina8862 Hard Disc? What are you talking about? Like a Hard drive? That's what I said. Photos and videos are quite large, and pen drives aren't suitable for long term storage.
@Dr Troll For games, it really depends on the game and how often it loads. If the game is large but doesn't load often, you can just run it on the HD. If you have games that have long loading screens and load often, it's best to install those on an ssd. But I would always store huge personal files like video and photos on an HD. It is larger storage for way less money, plus you will write to the HD way more if you're always moving files. SSDs will deteriorate much faster the more files you write, and you won't be writing your operating system or installing programs often. You'll mostly be reading data with those once installed.

My HDD turned into a dolphin.. help!!!!!!
BTW i am using my backup ssd now!
No, I am the dolphin.
Plot twist.
hahaha!
Maybe feed you dolfin a burger?
***** Why not? Just make shure it is the same connection they are using. And of course remember to backup your files from the HDD if you want to use them.
But an HDD isn't that bad of an companion. Just use it for something else (if you have the space) like for backups and all that...
what do you mean by turning it system into dolphin?
although some of your videos are old they still hold good walking me through disc management saved me from madness
A very crisp and clear explanation. Thanks a lot.
Linus, that joke (about procrastination) killed me!
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think there's a way to reduce SSD wear if you have a SSD for your OS and an HDD for general storage.
You can set your browser to always ask where to save downloaded files. So instead of downloading a movie into your SSD and then moving to your HDD, you download directly to your HDD. This method may greatly increase your SSD lifespan because you are not writing and erasing as much, especially if you like movies.
most SSDs nowadays have a really long lifespan anyway that most users will never use up
Nice, informative, and concise video. Thank you!
Incredibly insightful video, thanks :)
hears clicking noises pauses video look at HDD HOLY SHIT THERES A DOLPHIN IN MY CASE
Well said Linus, I already knew this though just love to watch your videos! :D
I am really grateful for these
videos, thanku :)
Atlast! A clear explanation. Thank you so much.
watching this 5 years later and 240gb SSDs are $30 lol
Yep! 😎
Samsung 860 EVO in 250 GB capacity cost me $39.99 + some tax!
I have been buyin SSDs since 2009, where my first one was a Corsair Extreme X64 SSD with as the name suggests, 64 GB. I purchased it for the new Windows 7 install. I still have photos of the momentous occasion. I am such a nerd.
Oh and that Corsair SSD from 2009 cost a bit over $200 new...from amazon of course. The thing worked though!!! The controller inside was terrible to today’s standards, but it really worked well with Windows 7!!
I think the best thing to do is get a SSD for software and OS
And a HDD for all your normal files and stuff

The Bible can be summed up in 1 word. Jesus. Jesus means salvation. But you may say “what do I need to be saved from?” Sin and its consequence (which is Hell-the wrath of God). But you may say “I don’t Sin”. Jesus said all humans have sinned in thought, word, or deed, so either you are lying, or Jesus is lying. On the topic of sin have you ever lied, stolen anything, spoken abusively to or about someone, Swore, Blasphemed God’s Holy name, lusted after the opposite sex, had premarital sex, cheated, hated someone?
Jesus died on the cross and experienced the wrath of God on Himself in order for you to be forgiven and reconciled with God. All you have to do is repent (change from your sinful ways) and Believe in Jesus. Romans 6: 23 For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
@@thereisnonegoodbutgodjohn363 wtf does this have to do with this entire topic of SSDs. No one asked you about Jesus or God! You can't just walk in here and start trying to preach.
@@Zrorro Trust me in the grand scheme of things, my reply is the only relevant thing here. The words of God are more important than absolutely anything else in the world. Some people literally die to read the Bible & the message of Jesus Christ.
If I knew you were in the way of incoming traffic id pull you out of the way. Likewise, if you were in a burning building, I’d pull you out as well. What you don’t realise is your soul is on fire hence the preaching. The word of God is offensive to you right now but once you become a Christian you will realise the awesomeness of God and what love really is.
@@Zrorro I’m for you not against you. Jesus is not some bad Person to Believe nor is He made up (look at all the attention He gets). He is not a hypocrite either. He practiced what He preached. He is Loving but also Just; So, He will punish sinners like any just judge would. But followers of Jesus are exempt because the precious Blood of Jesus atones for their sins.

i thought i was the only one
+Pao Xiong Yeahm they start from under your name
Very good quick info, thanks!
Thank you for the information, I agree; SSD and HDD are just distinct from each other, each has its pros and cons. I just go with what was originally installed on the computer (My desktop originally had an SSD, and that's what I got it. My laptop originally has an HDD, and that's what I'll get it when it fails).
SSD
Pros
-fats speed
-portability
-durability
Cons
-higher price
-small amount of storage
HDD
Pros
-lower price
-massive amount of storage
Cons
-slow speed
-heaviness or largeness
-vulnerability
So what the SSD has, the HDD lacks. But what the SSD lacks, the HDD has.
I have a 13 year old 160GB Seagate hard drive that is still going strong! It's very loud though!
+Rhett Krecic (Rhettsterhhhh) STRONG
+MO IS COOL ANDAWESOME Still going! I did a video on it. I've had an SSD fail on me but never a HDD for some reason.
thats really good but noise means it might die soon tho like it says in the vid
+MO IS COOL ANDAWESOME Thats actaully what happsins when you soup your drive up by increasing the AMM. It makes the Read/Write head arm move faster but makes it louder. Some HDDs have this locked and some don't. The only signs of age on this drive would be its bad sectors. Other than that, it is as good as the day it was born.
***** Where did you get yours from? I pulled mine from an old Compaq Presario.
Very good explanation and to the point without clutter. brill
Thank you for this, I like how you gave both sides to this issue, because of you you saved me allot of money,I don't really need an SSD,
I think it is safe to say that the internal storage should be a 512 or 1TB ssd and for archive backups it's better to have an external hard drive.

Sinners don’t go to heaven they go to hell, But we are blessed to have Jesus (God incarnate) die on the Cross and rise from the dead. If you Repent (forsake your sinful, unholy ways and live righteous instead) & Believe in Jesus as God, you will be seen as a Saint and welcomed into Heaven.
John 3:17 For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved
All Humans need to repent & Believe in Jesus. Why? Because all Humans have sinned (lied, lusted sexually, stolen, dishonoured parents etc). Avoid the fires of Hell (justice of God) and choose Heaven today. GOD IS HOLY
not the first video of yours i have seen, but subscribed after the, "first check to make sure it hasn't turned into a dolphin..." comment. LOL
waldicky limbong take it to a cannery.
About time for an update on this one.
You know when he gasped loudly, i thought my newly bought headphones had stopped working,,,lol i was dumb.
Nice video keep up (and gasping...like ur confidence)
i switched to a samsung 840 pro recently, boot up time went from 1:44 down to just 16 seconds.
Main reason your boot up time with whatever hdd storage o.s. installed-solution you had was because you had a shit ton of start up programs trying to launch/run in the background UPON START UP. aka in msconfig ( if in xp, vista and 7 and ctrl shift esc for task manager then start up tab for windows 8). Otherwise normal start up time for just one to three programs on xp is no more than 1:30 tops and most often right at one minute for 7200 rpm hdd as a worst case scenario. 1:30 for 5400 rpm hdd's in that exact same scenario.
I'm speaking from 14 years of experience so not trying to rub anything in. Just giving you some specs/pointers to "measure" by when it comes to start up times in windows o.s.'s vs the hardware you're using and amount of start up programs. Also TYPE of start up program plays a role. MOST antivirus suites are hardcore heavy on cpu usage upon system start up.
Congratulations on your EXCELLENT choice of ssd purchase. I wanted to get that one but can't afford it yet. Ended up with a 60GB mushkin chronos deluxe for my o.s. drive and still rocking my 240GB mushkin callisto deluxe for games,music, pictures, documents. Let me know if I can help. Adios
Raymond Tyson yeah i've done that start up programs and whatnot but i was still blown away at how fast it was.
SSD's are quick but HDD is still really fast these days. The price to capacity & speed ratio is still with the HDD tho. On a decently fast PC I reckon SSD aint worth it for the average user.
***** true. I have a 128gb harddrive on my gaming rig. It starts up faster than my TV can turn on.
*****
Weeeelll... I had an SSD fail on me and now I run windows 8 on a standard HDD. To be honest the reliability of my OS being on the HDD was worth the couple of seconds extra boot time I've found. I think if you just use office applications and browse a bit, you know whatch a few youtube channels and put your holiday snaps on the PC an SSD is overpriced still I'd say. And you can't beat the reliability of proven tech. I wanna know I aint gonna lose my data again.
If you're doing a lot of heavy file reading though I can totally see SSD for ya... I totally HAVE to run Skyrim with like 80 mods on my SSD cause otherwise the experience is ruined by the HDD bottleneck.
It really depends what you are using it for. If you are a heavy user running programs that require reading a lot of smaller files then man... go SSD for sure.
***** but thats the big advantage and why everyone uses an ssd for their os coz its much faster if i had an ssd ill only use it for that and a few other thing but still use hdd best to use both but for an average joe they dont need an ssd they wont know what to do with it
ocz vector 128gb... dirt cheap got it for £80 but they've had a fair few fail unfortunately. still they replaced it ok. had to run out and get an wd HDD and do a full os reinstall though else I wouldn't have had a pc for 2 weeks.
*****
Uh... nope don't think so. They still sell drives and release new products and they changed my drive for me. It was only like just over a month ago I got the replacement back.
Worth considering is running a RAID setup with inexpensive SATA drives. This can give both a performance boost, increased storage space and increased data security (if running RAID levels such as RAID 1 or 5, that is).
Why should God let you into Heaven?

Good video. Obviously the writing has some work to be done. I appreciate the information in this .
Thanks. I just got my SSD and wow, what a great decision I recommend it highly.. Everything on the computer is so much faster, from loading iTunes to starting the computer (Windows 7), everything is literally at least twice as fast. I just turn it on, and 30 seconds later, I am in google chrome or whatever. That would have taken me like 2 or 3 minutes with my HDD! Even seems like the browser is a little faster.
And it's a lot quieter because the disk itself of course, but also because it doesn't heat up the system as much, the fan doesn't have to run as much, making it even quieter. Plus now I have a half terabyte of portable storage from my old hard drive. I got the 240GB that was plenty enough for me, definitely worth it though, about $125. I probably would have been fine with 120GB though but better safe than sorry.
+Chris Koro AND Windows 7 give it a rate 7.9 out of 7.9! SSD all the way
+Chris Koro Thats why ssd's are for boot drive only and ofcourse if ur playing games that loads alot of time like fallout
30 secs for booting? Are you still on 7!? 30 secs to boot up is jurassic already··· Windows 8.1 or 10 with SSD boots up like in 2, 4, 5 seconds already· Microsoft completely rewrote booting since Windows 8, so even if you're using a HD it always boot up before 8 seconds·
"and 30 seconds later, I am in google chrome/ jerkin it." ;)
Nah, HHD is way way better and more popular :) plus SSD is so expensive and suck strorage.
if i put windows on an ssd, will windows kill the ssd by writing log files and other file generated in windows?
Just disable writing log files and it will be fine
MrMovieMan941
thank you :)
:)
:S i'm missing something here...
nope. modern SSD's can last quite a long time. you're good to go. MacBooks and other ultrabooks only have an SSD for the OS and all the applications and they last quite a while.
This video was so useful, thanks!
Awesome content! Please, I have a doubt, what is the best to music production, 1TB HDD or 250GB SSD? both internal. Thank you and all the best!!
so what i'm getting is that I need to store my programs like Chrome, Sony/Magix Vegas, PhotoShop etc on an SSD and save a hard drive for file storage such as photos a videos???
Yes
I had a laptop for six years
The HDD still works correctly
Pretty slow but it does
"Dislike it if you don't like it." So cool! I love it! Great to the point video, thanks.
The dolphin joke made my day. And a great video as usually.
I don't think it's accurate to say writing to SSDs will wear them out "fairly quickly". I think new ones are rated something like 50GB written on them per day for 10 years, before they even start to degrade, and when they do - your data is not lost, you just have less space, while an HDD just fails.
Hard Drive don't always just fail. Some Hard Drives are good enough to see their capacity shrink. My old Seagate Hard Drive is now 13 years old. The original capacity was 160GB. After 13 years of heavy use, the capacity is now 143GB. Some Hard Drives however die within a year.
It's true, but HDDs often fail due to a mechanical failure. That being said, my 200MB HDD from 1991 is still going strong!
+QuantumBraced Yeah but not always instantly. Most of the time, you'll get warnings.
+QuantumBraced So true. This myth is due to early SSDs from about 2005 wearing out fast. 10 years later and the cheapest SSD you can buy will last much longer than a typical HDD. Longevity testing suggests that under extremely heavy use of 100GB per day writes, a cheap SSD will last around 50 years. I write about 30GB per day to mine and I'm a reasonably heavy user, so for me it will last around 100 years.
Of course there will be examples of defective devices that fail sooner, but I expect that the majority of SSDs will outlast my own lifespan.

Thank you very much, good source of information and gave me ideas for my project
Keep in mind...This video was posted almost a decade ago. All laptops will come with SSDs now. SSDs are generally if not always better than HDD in 2022.
@@skiiabamba thank you so much for the info, but doesnt hard drive exist longer than an ssd drive?
Ty, very clear and quite helpful.
He should’ve mentioned the fact that SSDs are more susceptible to breaking down if they are not used for a while. HDs are superior for archival storage because you can just put them in your closet long term. SSDs need to be used relatively frequently for the transistors to not break down
i think his target audience are gamers who use their PCs everyday, I know for a fact my SSD is being used to its fullest haha
@@JasonSalgado Are you still using your SSD to its maximum strength?
Okay how about SSD PCIe drives... what are they?
They're the 1200cc motorcycles.
They are SSD's that interface with PCIe rather than SATA....
World Known And they'reusually faster, because of that PCIe interface, also more expensive.
Well yes, and I don't think the extra price is justifiable for the average consumer.
***** you can get 110GB SSD PCIE for less money than a 120GB SSD in some cases.
Gets right into the info. Great info great content
How SSDs have progressed nowadays.
HDD
- Lasts For Decades
SSD
- Lasts For 10 Years
Ashley Johansson that's literally all I needed to k ow thankyou
SSDs have limited write rates, which means that they will wear down because they rely on electricity to store data. Hard drives are much more reliable and easier to restore data because they have things like S.M.A.R.T. and the data doesn't decay as the electricity or data loses its charge.
Ashley Johansson Ever heard of Samsung V NAND? It lasts for about 1000 years, or 2000.
What software and files should I put on an SSD and what on an HDD?
Put your OS on your SSD, MAYBE one or two of your favorite games that would normally take a while to load, and everything else on the HDD
Thanks!
***** No. The software will load faster though. If you want better render speed you need a better cpu and more ram
*****
Thanks!
Put your OS and things you use often on the SSD, then other stuff on the HDD. Or whatever you want.
I use SSD for the OS and the software (The C: Drive) and HDDs for storage (external drives)
Good explanaition. Thanks.
I thought it was useful... Then i saw the date lol
Mine turned Into a dolphin HELLP
I would like a video to explain how the SSD and especially HHD works, more in depth videos would be nice.
Excellent explanation
i was searching for a new ssd so i watched this vid en you said 160 dollars will buy you 256gb i immedietly looked at the date 6 years ago
back from when Linus always looked like he just came out of a shower.
My gaming/work setup runs ubuntu server (with lxde) on a 1tb hardrive while my home folder is on dual 1tb harddrives in raid1 while my secondary setup uses a 16gb ssd running chromeos and crouton which i can use to remotely control (and game) on my primary setup
well, my laptop setup is a 480gb SSD internaly, and a 280 gb external hard drive for backups, big files and bulk data transfer, and a 16 gb flash drive for portable movement of small files (docs,presentations,etc)
Its nice to see Linus grow up in just 8 years.
