By upgrading to an SSD, you benefit from faster boot times, accelerated loading, and increased battery life due to higher energy efficiency compared to traditional hard drives. Thanks to the included Acronis cloning software and instructions from Crucial, installation is a breeze. The advantages of an SSD over a conventional hard drive include significantly shorter access times, lower energy consumption, and greatly enhanced shock resistance. This means your operating system boots faster, generates less heat, and your data remains intact even during larger shocks. Another advantage is the very high lifespan, ensuring your data is preserved for a long time. In 3D NAND (also known as V-NAND or 3D V-NAND), the transistors are oriented vertically to the chip surface, and the flash memory lines are arranged in layers on top of each other. This achieves a higher storage density while simultaneously reducing the risk of interference between the cells. Thanks to the shortened connections between the cells, electrical performance increases, and consequently, power consumption decreases.
