What type of technology is used in SSD devices to provide non-volatile data storage?

The correct answer is C. Flash memory. Solid-state storage typically uses a variant of non-volatile memory known as NAND flash. SSDs have no moving parts, and they are capable of higher performance than mechanically addressed HDDs and tape, which use a head to read and write data to magnetic storage media.
