2. Flash memory - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flash_memory

   Flash memory does not have the mechanical limitations and latencies of hard drives, so a solid-state drive (SSD) is attractive when considering speed, noise, power consumption, and reliability. Flash drives are gaining traction as mobile device secondary storage devices; they are also used as substitutes for hard drives in high-performance ...

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. USB flash drive - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USB_flash_drive

   For consecutive sector writes and reads (for example, from an unfragmented file), most hard drives can provide a much higher sustained data rate than current NAND flash memory, though mechanical latencies seriously impact hard drive performance. Unlike solid-state memory, hard drives are susceptible to damage by shock (e.g., a short fall) and ...

5. List of solid-state drive manufacturers - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_solid-state_drive...

   In the list those manufacturers that also produce hard disk drives or flash memory are identified. Additionally, the type of memory used in their solid-state drives is noted. This list does not include the manufacturers of specific components of SSDs, such as flash memory controllers. [1]

6. Solid-state storage - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solid-state_storage

   A solid-state drive (SSD) provides secondary storage for relatively complex systems including personal computers, embedded systems, portable devices, large servers and network-attached storage (NAS). To satisfy such a wide range of uses, SSDs are produced with various features, capacities, interfaces and physical sizes and layouts.

7. External storage - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/External_storage

   Such storage devices may refer to removable media (e.g. punched paper, magnetic tape, floppy disk and optical disc), compact flash drives (USB flash drive and memory card), portable storage devices (external solid-state drive and enclosured hard disk drive), or network-attached storage.
