SSD form factors

SSD form factors refer to the physical shapes and sizes of solid-state drives, which determine how they fit into devices. Common form factors include 2.5-inch drives, which resemble traditional hard drives and are typically used in laptops and desktops, and M.2 drives, which are smaller and connect directly to the motherboard. There’s also the PCIe card form factor, which resembles a graphics card and is used for high-performance applications. Each form factor affects compatibility, speed, and space, influencing which SSD is suitable for a particular device or use case.
