Comparison of NAND-based SSD and HDD Attribute or characteristic Solid-state drive (SSD) Hard disk drive (HDD) Price per capacity SSDs are generally more expensive than HDDs and are expected to remain so. As of early 2018, SSD prices were around $0.30 per gigabyte for 4 TB models. [23]
An SSD, in form of a 2.5-inch bay device that uses Serial ATA (SATA) interface Internals of an SD card , showing the flash memory and controller integrated circuits A solid-state drive (SSD) provides secondary storage for relatively complex systems including personal computers , embedded systems , portable devices , large servers and network ...
A hybrid drive (solid state hybrid drive – SSHD, and dual-storage drive) is a logical or physical computer storage device that combines a faster storage medium such as solid-state drive (SSD) with a higher-capacity hard disk drive (HDD). The intent is adding some of the speed of SSDs to the cost-effective storage capacity of traditional HDDs.
2.5-inch hard disk drives often consume less power than larger ones. [12] [13] Low capacity solid-state drives have no moving parts and consume less power than hard disks. [14] [15] [16] Also, memory may use more power than hard disks. [16] Large caches, which are used to avoid hitting the memory wall, may also consume a large amount of power.
The term solid-state became popular at the beginning of the semiconductor era in the 1960s to distinguish this new technology. A semiconductor device works by controlling an electric current consisting of electrons or holes moving within a solid crystalline piece of semiconducting material such as silicon, while the thermionic vacuum tubes it replaced worked by controlling a current of ...
The notion of "large" amounts of data is of course highly dependent on the time frame and the market segment, as storage device capacity has increased by many orders of magnitude since the beginnings of computer technology in the late 1940s and continues to grow; however, in any time frame, common mass storage devices have tended to be much larger and at the same time much slower than common ...
In the 1950s, introduction of magnetic tapes and hard disk drives allowed for mass external storage of information, which played the key part of the computer revolution. [6] Initially all external storage, tape and hard disk drives are today available as both internal and external storage.
Dedicated external solid-state drives (SSD) Enclosured mass storage drives, i.e. modified hard disk drives (HDD)/internal SSDs; Peripheral devices that have integrated data storage capability Digital cameras; Mobile devices such as smartphones, tablets and handheld game consoles; Portable media players
