This document compares solid state drives (SSDs) and hybrid hard drives. It provides background on SSDs, noting they have no moving parts and use flash memory instead of magnetic disks. SSDs offer faster speeds but have limited storage capacity and lifetime write limits. Hybrid drives combine a small SSD cache with a standard hard disk, offering faster access to frequently used files while providing higher storage capacity at a lower cost than SSDs alone. However, hybrid drives are slower than SSDs for cached files and have shorter lifetimes if the SSD cache is managed poorly. The document concludes SSDs are best when speed is the top priority, while hybrids are suitable when both speed and capacity are important.

Solid State Drives - Seminar Report for Semester 6 Computer Engineering - VIT...ravipbhat
This report is intended as a guide to emerging solid state storage technology, in particular, to the introduction of solid state drives.
Adding a solid-state drive (SSD) to your computer is simply the best upgrade at your disposal, capable of speeding up your computer in ways you hadn't thought possible. But as with any new technology, there's plenty to learn.
The consumer is no longer limited to just accepting pre-configured systems and, even when purchasing a system, should have an avenue to understand what purpose the storage device within serves as well as how it does what it does.
A solid-state drive (SSD) is a data storage device for your computer.
In everyday use, it provides the same functionality as a traditional hard disk drive (HDD)—the standard for computer storage for many years.

It’s difficult to see what’s not to love about SSDs. They’re compact, faster than HDDs, have no moving parts so can withstand shocks and vibrations, and they are slowly creeping up in storage capacity and down in cost. If you’ve upgraded your main drive from an HDD to an SSD, you’ll no doubt have noticed the huge improvement in performance; your machine will have booted in less time, programs and applications will have loaded faster, and read/write speeds will have been much improved, too. One of the limitations of solid-state drives used to be the high cost-per-gigabyte, but large capacity SSDs of 500GB and up are now more than affordable. Sure, HDDs are currently better value for money, but SSDs offer a whole host of benefits over their mechanical counterparts, so most people are willing to pay more. But for all their merits, how safe is your data when stored on an SSD? Do SSDs fail, and if so, what is their lifespan, and is it an improvement on HDDs?

Search and Society: Reimagining Information Access for Radical FuturesBhaskar Mitra
The field of Information retrieval (IR) is currently undergoing a transformative shift, at least partly due to the emerging applications of generative AI to information access. In this talk, we will deliberate on the sociotechnical implications of generative AI for information access. We will argue that there is both a critical necessity and an exciting opportunity for the IR community to re-center our research agendas on societal needs while dismantling the artificial separation between the work on fairness, accountability, transparency, and ethics in IR and the rest of IR research. Instead of adopting a reactionary strategy of trying to mitigate potential social harms from emerging technologies, the community should aim to proactively set the research agenda for the kinds of systems we should build inspired by diverse explicitly stated sociotechnical imaginaries. The sociotechnical imaginaries that underpin the design and development of information access technologies needs to be explicitly articulated, and we need to develop theories of change in context of these diverse perspectives. Our guiding future imaginaries must be informed by other academic fields, such as democratic theory and critical theory, and should be co-developed with social science scholars, legal scholars, civil rights and social justice activists, and artists, among others.

Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024Tobias Schneck
As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other?
Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.

1. Finding Middle Ground
A comparison of solid state and
hybrid hard drives: Are hybrids really
the best of both worlds?
By: Addison Roy and Brendan Banbury
2. What makes a
SSD tick?
• An SSD (solid-state drive) is a
storage device that stores
persistent data on solid-state flash
memory.
• They are very different from
Hybrid and traditional hard drives
because they have no moving
parts at all.
• An SSD has an array of
semiconductor memory organized
as a disk drive, using integrated
circuits instead of magnetic or
optical media.
• Most SSDs use NAND based flash
technology which will retain data
without power.
• SSD manufacturers use non-
volatile NAND flash memory
because of the lower cost
compared to DRAM and the ability
to retain the data without a
constant power supply
3. Solid State Drives:
The Beginning.
• The origins of SSDs actually started in
the 1950’s . Magnetic core memory
and card capacitor read-only store
(CCROS) were called auxiliary
memory units and emerged during
the era of vacuum tube computers.
Unfortunately with the introduction
of cheaper drum storage units their
use was discontinued.
• In 1976 Dataram introduced the
world’s first solid-state drive. It
provided a massive 2 MB of storage.
• This setup, including controller board
cost $9,700.00 in 1977 which would
be approx. $36,317.00 today.
• Then in 1995 an Israeli firm M-
systems developed the template for
the flash based SSDs we are familiar
with today. Image Source: ddrdrive.com
• Storage capacity has continued to
increase while prices have decreased
4. Combining the Best of Both
Worlds: Hybrid Drives.
•In simplest terms: HDD with a
supersized adaptive cache.
•64MB cache VS 4-64GB SSD or RAM

•Mostly non-volatile; RAM-based W/O

•Onboard software analyzes use
patterns.
•Commonly used programs and files
automatically or manually written to
SSD cache.
•Files replaced and added to cache as
user’s needs change.
•For standard use, performs like a SSD. Image Source: engadget.com
Disk platter only spins when cache is
full or requested data is on the disk.
5. Newer Than you Think.
•HDD and SSD came out in the 1950’s…
•Someone finally decided to combine
them in 2007.
•Hybrid innovators: Seagate and
Samsung.
•Software issues with Windows Vista
kept Hybrid drives in obscurity until
2010. (Seagate Momentus XT)
•They are still far less common than
standalone HDD or SSD.
•Still, a market niche exists, but likely
not for long.
•With SSD capacity growing and cost
plummeting, hybrids will either become Image Source: hardmac.com

will become standard.
