A hard disk head on an access arm resting on a hard disk platter. The access time or response time of a rotating drive is a measure of the time it takes before the drive can actually transfer data. The factors that control this time on a rotating drive are mostly related to the mechanical nature of the rotating disks and moving heads. It is ...
A disk-on-a-module (DOM) is a flash drive with either 40/44-pin Parallel ATA (PATA) or SATA interface, intended to be plugged directly into the motherboard and used as a computer hard disk drive (HDD). DOM devices emulate a traditional hard disk drive, resulting in no need for special drivers or other specific operating system support.
CrystalDiskMark is an open source disk drive benchmark tool for Microsoft Windows from Crystal Dew World.Based on Microsoft's MIT-licensed Diskspd tool, [2] this graphical benchmark is commonly used for testing the performance of solid-state storage.
Some SSDs, including the OCZ RevoDrive 3 x2 PCIe using the SandForce controller, have shown much higher sustained write performance that more closely matches the read speed. [9] For example, a typical operating system has many small files (such as DLLs ≤ 128 kB), so SSD is more suitable for system drive.
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 ...
Two 2.5" external USB hard drives Seagate Hard Drive with a controller board to convert SATA to USB, FireWire, and eSATA Current external hard disk drives typically connect via USB-C; earlier models use USB-B (sometimes with using of a pair of ports for better bandwidth) or (rarely) eSATA connection. Variants using USB 2.0 interface generally ...
Same build as miniSD but greater capacity and transfer speed, 4 GB to 32 GB. 8 GB is largest in early-2011 (not compatible with older host devices). microSDHC: 2007 32 GB [4] Same build as microSD but greater capacity and transfer speed, 4 GB to 32 GB.

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.
