2. 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, and solid-state disk. [1][2] SSDs rely on non-volatile memory, typically NAND flash, to store data in memory cells.

3. Hard disk drive - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hard_disk_drive

   A hard disk drive (HDD), hard disk, hard drive, or fixed disk[a] is an electro-mechanical data storage device that stores and retrieves digital data using magnetic storage with one or more rigid rapidly rotating platters coated with magnetic material.

4. Solid-state storage - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solid-state_storage

   Device types. 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. 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. Hybrid drive - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hybrid_drive

   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 ...

7. Hard disk drive performance characteristics - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hard_disk_drive...

   Most hard disk drives today support some form of power management which uses a number of specific power modes that save energy by reducing performance. When implemented an HDD will change between a full power mode to one or more power saving modes as a function of drive usage.
