So i have a mechanical drive on my desktop and i would like to replace it with a ssd drive for faster performance
But i couldn't find any ssd for desktop computers as i heard that a laptop ssd is not capable of handling a desktop current or voltage and its circuit board will likely gone short out .
is that true ?

That is 100% false. Whoever told you that...never listen to them again.

Any 2.5" SATA III SSD will work in your desktop.
