   I would have thought the clue was in the names .... "spinner hard drive"   
   (i.e. rotating disks) and "solid state drive" (i.e. no rotating disk).   
      
   Unless, of course, you are talking about removing the spinning disk   
   block and replacing it was a SSD block ..... which *MIGHT* be possible   
   .... but I seriously doubt the Economics would work out!!
