[lindsaymobil22]

intel will you plz lower your price for your ssd's? you would get alot more customers if your demoing them this way!

[curtismichael14]

you guys don't understand,this is why they made the hard solid state drives,also its more compact,not to mention its like picking up a pair of glasses when you handle it,yup its that light i bought a 58gb its amazing

I have dropped a few hard drives in my day. Still work. I even had a WD GP 1tb hdd powered on get dropped (not by me). Picked it up and the OS was still running without a problem and to this date the drive is running fine while passing all long and short DST tests. So dont belive what u see when some tard smacks the shit out of an HDD and taps a SSD. Yes they are better and stronger but they made sure to kill the HDD .

i just got one thing to say here u hit with bat or driver car what it has to do?... we all know whats ssd

JUST LOWER THE COST OF SSD SO WE ALL CAN BUY THAT WILL BE SOMETHING COOL LOL

[stalker7d7]

interesting that you had the inexperience one hit the ssd, and it looked like a very weak hit too...no wonder the ssd still worked..

Hmmm...interesting video. I checked into this video's claim..and (Google)lists a number of products meeting Mil-Std 810 requirements. Some of these products do incorporate Intel SSD drives(optional).What also appears is the problem with the firmware "bug"...which forced a recall(Intel SSD failures-Dec. 09). Meanwhile, Hitachi continues to sell HDD rated for 1 terra @ 85 dollars a pop.

@clbgeballe

no there wasn't, The SSD is not better than a hard drive, Because it can be hit with a hockey stick, You are the the one with a brain of marshmallows and tar because you think that you might have to hit it with a hockey stick, and need to to survive it.

[JGAN96]

only for now. soon, ssd will be the same, if not less expensive

[rshintss]

this proves...... nuthing!!!

[therealandycook]

it doesn't matter that the HDD got hit a fraction harder then the SSD...the drop to the ice that they both encountered would have been enough. I promise you. Go outside and drop an HDD on the road. I bet you it breaks.

HDD gives you more storage space for less money. I'll agree that SSD is more durable, but it's more expensive for less storage.
