If a solid-state drive has no moving parts what is one additional benefit?

Correct answer: It may be less affected by shocks than a traditional hard disk

The governing concept is the effect of mechanical design on storage durability. An SSD stores data in flash memory and has no spinning platters or moving read/write heads, so physical shocks generally pose less mechanical risk than they do for a traditional hard disk. Option A is correct. An SSD still needs power, does not replace the CPU, and normally stores data persistently rather than only temporarily.
