and SSD is short for a solid state drive. it is a type of hard drive. Unlike regular hard drives that involve spinning disks SSDs use something similar to flash drives to put it simply. this means they should consume less power, break less easily and hopefully have faster reading and writing speeds...
It's still a developing technology.

Ah so my question now would be in 4-5 years when the price drops will it become something more then a rival to a hard drive?

for cheap ones, read and write speed is slow. If you want something faster than a regular hard drive, be prepared to cash in lots of $$$.
I've also seen laptop hard drives break because the person got angry and pound the area on the keyboard in which the hard drive is right below. With SSD, that won't happen.

Still though, even the cheap ones won't break that easily... and what kind of idiot would pound his laptop... unbelievable...
