    Tom's Hardware[^]:

    HDDs deliver between 19% to 94% better power density per drive than SSDs.

    You just have to spin the platters with fairy dust?

      Power consumption might be important, but I find more important the durability as a long term storage. HDDs are better than SSDs on that by far, specially if the media is switched off the most of the time.

      M.D.V. ;) If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about? Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.
