There are numerous types of SSD interfaces available in the market, so it can be hard to pick the one that is compatible with your motherboard. In this article, we’ll dive in three different SSD interfaces: SATA SSD interface, mSATA SSD interface, and M. 2 connector, in order to help you make an informed decision when buying an SSD interface.
Shingled drives are to store PBs of read-centric bulk data as cost effectively as possible. Western Digital is developing zoned SSDs in order to speed data access and prolong the life of the drivers by making write amplification factor as low as practicable. Therefore, for this purpose, Western Digital believes that applications that use shingled disk drives could instead use zoned SSDs with few c...
The upgrading of flash type from SLC to MLC, TLC and QLC results in a significant decline in performance, especially in write performance, due to more charge bits to save in every cell and increasing capacity. Garbage collection and TRIM can also affect performance reduction. But now, performance reduction caused by garbage collection and TRIM is much less. In addition, the more space solid state...
Although solid state drive is popular in our daily life, it still has a disgusting problem, namely, declining performance. Experienced users should have experience it, while some people actually do not realize this problem. Let us talk about declining performance of solid state drive in this paper.
QLC SSD is the latest product to meet the demands of high capacity and low cost. It is the developing trend of SSD industry, although people have doubts and distrusts on it, it will prove its performance at the end. Finally the new technology will replace the old one, as if we take time to wait and test. It is the good sign of NAND flash market, no matter SSD or Micro SD Card; they will have more...
With the gradual entry of flash products into data centers and the further increase of the utilization rate of flash memory, how to choose the best flash array becomes a major problem for users when they purchase enterprise-class flash memory and solid-state hard disk. This article not only discusses the common types of flash, full flash array and server-side flash, but also looks at each use case...
The main function of hard disk is to store data. Flash memory plays the role of memory. And the master control is the direct controller of flash memory and a brain of hard disk. To understand the solid state drive, you must first be familiar with master control. With the continuous development of flash memory technology and the market of the solid state drive, master control has gradually become t...
According to Zhang Taile, vice president of products in Membalze, data center SSD refers to data center demand represented by Internet enterprises, and its typical application is characterized by distributed application, while traditional industries and enterprise users depend on centralized application. Focus and demands are different in various applications. Openness defeats closure! Zhang belie...
With rising 96-layer 3D flash memory capacity in the second quarter, NAND flash memory market will come into a severe over supply stage.
This article introduces various formats for best SSDs. These products are form some leading suppliers, including Intel, Western Digital, Samsung, Toshiba, Seagate and Micron.
