← ScienceWhich mechanism dictates the data read error rate when solid-state drive (SSD) cells degrade?
A)Inter-cell capacitance✓
B)Thermal runaway
C)Quantum tunneling
D)Electromigration effects
💡 Explanation
Data read errors increase in SSDs as charge leaks weaken cell potentials; inter-cell capacitance becomes more significant, because capacitive coupling shifts voltage thresholds during read operations, therefore, leading to errors rather than the intended stable state for reliable data retrieval.
