Hard Drive and SSD
Hard Drive and SSD devices stores and saves all the information and things that you have on your computer
The Hard Drive is a thick sort of rectangle, it is used in the less modern laptops. If you drop the Hard Drive it will get damaged, it is also less expensive than a SSD.
SSD is a small card, it is thinner and smaller than a Hard Drive. It is used in the more modern laptops e.g. MacBook air. If you drop the SSD it will not get dammaged, it might, but highly unlikely.
Optical Drive
The Optical Drive is used to play Optical Discs e.g DVD's, CD,s and Blu-Ray. It can play
music,movies and games. At first the Optical Drive was a very thick box, but over the years the Optical drive got thinner so it can fit into thinner laptops, but the Macbook air is to thin for the Optical Drive so the macbook uses the intenet instead of the Optical drive
