Re: installing Linux Mint

I do apologise! 

HDD = Hard Drive device
SSD = Solid State Drive (no moving parts hence much faster). 
If you decide to go the SSD route, come back here.  It's easy enough but you might need to buy a "carrier" as the SSDs tend to be smaller than HDDs. 

Repositories: These are where approved software reposes.  Such S/W is guaranteed to work and can be installed either from your Software Centre or via the command line.
