I need to replace a hard drive that recently
went bad, and the new drive needs to be at
least 1TB.  I was looking on Amazon and
debating whether to buy a 5400rpm versus 7200rpm disk,
when, just for fun, I thought I would price
1TB SSD disks.  I started finding things
such as this:


https://www.amazon.com/Inland-Professional-Internal-Solid-State/dp/B07FM9SSP6/ref=sr_1_6?ie=UTF8&qid=1542239578&sr=8-6&keywords=ssd+hard+drive+1TB+sata
Inland Professional 1TB SSD 3D NAND SATA III 6Gb/s 2.5" 7mm Internal Solid State Drive (1T)
$140 (USD)


https://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Inch-Internal-MZ-76E1T0B-AM/dp/B078DPCY3T/ref=sr_1_3?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1542239031&sr=1-3&keywords=ssd+hard+drive+1TB
Samsung 860 EVO 1TB 2.5 Inch SATA III Internal SSD (MZ-76E1T0B/AM)
$148 (USD)


Can I just plug one of these drivex into a SATA plug
on my motherboard and it will function just like
a regular spinning hard disk drive?

If 1TB SSD drives have become so cheap, I don't
understand why anyone would buy a hard drive that
spins anymore, but maybe I am missing something.

Am I missing anything?
