- ekianjo 7y agoFor the end user a SSD drive is just a black box made of plastic - and that's if they have ever seen it.
- BlueTemplar 7y agoYou think they have seen many HDDs? Especially inside?
- ekianjo 7y agoDoes not matter. Most people have not seen a floppy disk for 15 years at least, but they still understand what it means when they see it ("save as..."). Familiarity.
- BlueTemplar 7y agoExactly !
- bluedino 7y agoOn a Mac they are just chips on a board...
- ken 7y agoAn integrated circuit is also "just a black box made of plastic".
- BlueTemplar 7y agoYou mean "green plate" ?
