2. Solid-state drive - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solid-state_drive

   Dual-drive hybrid systems are combining the usage of separate SSD and HDD devices installed in the same computer, with overall performance optimization managed by the computer user, or by the computer's operating system software. Examples of this type of system are bcache and dm-cache on Linux, [49] and Apple's Fusion Drive.

3. Hybrid drive - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hybrid_drive

   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.

4. 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.

5. Hierarchical storage management - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hierarchical_storage...

   HSM systems exist because high-speed storage devices, such as solid-state drive arrays, are more expensive (per byte stored) than slower devices, such as hard disk drives, optical discs and magnetic tape drives. While it would be ideal to have all data available on high-speed devices all the time, this is prohibitively expensive for many ...

6. Density (computer storage) - Wikipedia

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

   Hard disk drives store data in the magnetic polarization of small patches of the surface coating on a disk. The maximum areal density is defined by the size of the magnetic particles in the surface, as well as the size of the "head" used to read and write the data. In 1956 the first hard drive, the IBM 350, had an areal density of 2,000 bit/in 2.

7. Direct-attached storage - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Direct-attached_storage

   Direct-attached storage (DAS) is digital storage directly attached to the computer accessing it, as opposed to storage accessed over a computer network (i.e. network-attached storage). DAS consists of one or more storage units such as hard drives, solid-state drives, optical disc drives within an external enclosure.
