Greetings & Salutations!
Hello,
@Brink ::
I hope this discussion can become a "sticky" here, I found these articles informative...
As technology keeps changing we always keep learning....
(Please, do not let the new member status here on ElevenForums fool you. I have been a member of the SevenForums & TenForums for years, under the same username.)
I found some articles on the web that helped me answer my questions I had about SSDs & SSD storage devices ("flashsticks"). I got some answers here, but I wanted to know a more in-depth answer than what I got from here & so I thought I would share my findings here & in hopes others would benefit, too.
These articles go into depth, in plain english terminologies. Although, I can understand a lot of techno-babble; some of us can't, I can understand where they are comming from when I explain all things "computer" to my family members.
Cheers!

This article, entitled, "SSD vs. HDD : Know the Difference", is from within the webpages of Crucial's Articles' section & I found extremely informative & intuitive; I hope you do, too.
These articles also explains why & how Trim & Active Garbage Collection play key rolls in the speed of the SSD.
This article is on the NVMe protocol & its design to support SSD's higher speed memory over the older SCSI & SATA drives. (Cisco Article: "What Is NVMe?")
