2. Solid-state storage - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solid-state_storage

   Solid-state storage (SSS) is non-volatile computer storage that has no moving parts; it uses only electronic circuits. This solid-state design dramatically differs from the commonly-used competing technology of electromechanical magnetic storage which uses moving media coated with magnetic material .

3. Solid-state drive - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solid-state_drive

   A solid-state drive (SSD) is a type of solid-state storage device that uses integrated circuits to store data persistently. It is sometimes called semiconductor storage device, solid-state device, or solid-state disk. [1] [2] SSDs rely on non-volatile memory, typically NAND flash, to store data in memory cells. The performance and endurance of ...

4. Solid-state electronics - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solid-state_electronics

   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 ...

5. Computer data storage - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_data_storage

   Computer data storage or digital data storage is a technology consisting of computer components and recording media that are used to retain digital data. It is a core function and fundamental component of computers. [1]: 15–16 The central processing unit (CPU) of a computer is what manipulates data by performing computations.

6. Open-channel SSD - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open-Channel_SSD

   An open-channel solid state drive is a solid-state drive which does not have a firmware Flash Translation Layer implemented on the device, but instead leaves the management of the physical solid-state storage to the computer's operating system.

7. Density (computer storage) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Density_(computer_storage)

   Solid-state storage has seen a similar drop in cost per bit. In this case the cost is determined by the yield, the number of viable chips produced in a unit time. Chips are produced in batches printed on the surface of a single large silicon wafer, which is cut up and non-working samples are discarded.
