Solid-state drives (SSDs) are advanced storage devices that rely on flash memory to electronically store and retrieve data, unlike traditional hard disk drives (HDDs), which use mechanical components. SSDs leverage flash memory to enhance data storage, offering faster read and write speeds, reduced latency, and greater durability compared to HDDs.

The primary types of solid-state drives are external and internal. An external SSD is a storage device that integrates SSD technology with the convenience of external storage. These drives are available in various capacities, including under 500GB, 500GB-1TB, 1TB-2TB, and over 2TB. They use different interfaces such as Serial Attached SCSI (Small Computer System Interface), Serial Advanced Technology Attachment (SATA), and Peripheral Component Interconnect Express (PCIe). The IOUs technologies consist of Multi-Level Cell (MLC) Planar, Triple-Level Cell (TLC) Planar, Single-Level Cell (SLC), Multi-Level Cell (MLC) 3D, and Triple-Level Cell (TLC) 3D. These SSDs are utilized by different end users, including individuals, enterprises, and other organizations.North America was the largest region in the solid state drive market in 2025.
