  • A HDD works slower than an SSD because a HDD has moving parts inside of it whereas an SSD doesn't.
  • SSDs are more expensive than HDDs because of a few reasons, they use expensive raw materials, have a lower market demand than HDDs and the manufacturing process is complex and costly.
  • SSDs generally have a lower storage space available compared to HDDs which can be much bigger, the largest SSD available is 60TB, but it costs $10,000. 
  • If a HDD were to come in contact with a magnet, the data on the HDD would be wiped, whereas an SSD is safe from any effects of magnetism.
  • HDDs have a higher power draw, averaging at 6-7 watts compared to an SSD which averages at 2-3 watts. (Laptop)
  • Because of the moving parts, a HDD will produce a noise when it's working whereas an SSD works silently. 
  • SSD $0.20 per GB vs HDD $0.03 per GB

    A limitation of Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator is for beginner graphic designers, Illustrator and Photoshop is extremely complex with many different tools and functions. This means that there is a long learning process needed to make professional graphics and most of the software will not be used by the designer because they do not need it. 

    Another limitation is that the software's are very expensive and you will have to pay a monthly subscription of £19.97/mo if you are an individual user, and £25.28/mo if you are a small or medium sized business. This can be limiting because small start-up businesses will not have the money to continue paying this amount of money each month.

    CRT monitors are not in production any more.
    CRT and large and bulky at around 50 pounds to 100 pounds and LCD monitors are only 5 to 10 pounds.
    CRT have a lower refresh rate
    LCD:
    LCDs can have dead pixels this means that some of the pixels on the screen will become dead and will not display any colour and will look like the monitor has black spots this will not occur on a CRT monitor.
    LCD have a smaller viewing range this means that if you are not siting in front of the monitor it can be hard to see the screen

    • Laser printers can print faster than inkjet printers. It won't matter much if you print a few pages at a time, but high volume users will notice a huge difference.
    • Laser printers produce perfect sharp black text. If your print jobs are mostly text with occasional graphics, laser is the way to go. Laser printers also handle small fonts and fine lines far better than inkjet.
    • Laser printers are better prepared to handle high-volume print jobs. 
    Inkjet Printers -  
    • Great for photos and image-heavy documents. Inkjet printers do a better job of blending smooth colors than laser printers.
    • Inkjet printers have a low start-up cost. Printers are less expensive than laser printers and inkjet ink cartridges are cheaper than toner cartridges.
    • Inkjets can print onto many types of paper, including glossy photo paper, textured stationery and even some fabrics. 
    • Inkjet printers tend to be smaller, lighter and easier to maintain than laser printers.
