Traditional disk drive users are now looking towards fast chip-based solutions. Over the last five years, the use of flash memory storage has become a viable alternative to hard disk technology. A solid-state disk drive offers highspeed data retention and instantaneous delivery while avoiding the problems of a mechanical system. The latter is vulnerable to shock, drive motor failure and read/write head wear.
This white paper identifies some great opportunities for easy deployment of this quiet new technology. Capacities and transfer rates have continually risen and support for popular interface standards added. The solid-state drive is now ideal for a range of demanding applications from energy, defence and finance to film industry and medical.
Solid-State Drive Evolution explains the complexities of SSD drives and provides realistic test results. It gives practical advice about mixing and matching SSD technology in the data centre as well as ordinary hard disk drive replacement for the desktop.
