This document compares the specifications and performance of various hard drives and solid state drives. It finds that while SSDs provide much faster seek times, higher RPMs, and greater IOPS than HDDs, they also have higher prices per gigabyte and more complex memory management due to the limitations of flash memory. The optimal SSD performance depends most on the controller technology used rather than the flash memory itself.
Solid state drives (SSDs) are storage devices that use flash memory instead of spinning disks. They have no moving parts, faster read/write speeds, and better durability than traditional hard disk drives (HDDs). SSDs use NAND flash memory chips that can store data in single-level cells (SLC), multi-level cells (MLC), or triple-level cells (TLC). SLC provides the best performance and endurance but at a higher cost, while TLC has the lowest cost but lower endurance. SSDs have advantages over HDDs such as faster speeds, lower power consumption, and insensitivity to fragmentation. However, SSDs also have higher costs per gigabyte and limited
SSDs, IMDGs and All the Rest - Jax LondonUri Cohen
This document discusses how SSDs are improving data processing performance compared to HDDs and memory. It provides numbers showing SSDs have faster access times than HDDs but slower than memory. It also explains some of the challenges of SSDs like limited write cycles and that updates require erasing entire blocks. It discusses how databases like Cassandra and technologies like flash caching are optimized for SSDs, but there is still room for improvement like reducing read path complexity and write amplification. The document advocates for software optimizations to directly access SSDs and reduce overhead to further improve performance.

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.
Why does my choice of storage matter with cassandra?Johnny Miller
The document discusses how the choice of storage is critical for Cassandra deployments. It summarizes that SSDs are generally the best choice as they have no moving parts, resulting in much faster performance compared to HDDs. Specifically, SSDs can eliminate issues caused by disk seeks and allow the use of compaction strategies like leveled compaction that require lower seek times. The document provides measurements showing SSDs are up to 100x faster than HDDs for read/write speeds and latency. It recommends choosing local SSD storage in a JBOD configuration when possible for best performance and manageability.

What is the average rotational latency of this disk drive What seek.docxajoy21
SSDs have advantages over HDDs like faster speeds without seek times, but are more expensive. Various caching methods leverage SSD speed while retaining HDD capacity. DM-cache, Flashcache, Bcache, and EnhanceIO all use SSDs to cache hot data for faster access without extra storage management. Each has advantages like transparency or ability to cache partitions, but DM-cache may have metadata limits while Bcache uses system memory. A hybrid system provides the best features of both SSDs and HDDs.

7. Why is there so much hype about SSDs?
• Speed?
• Reliability?
• Ability to tell future?
• Making Vista usable?
• +5 armor immunity to random access latency?
8. First SSD not in 2007, more like 1976…
• Only had capacity of 2 MB
Fast-forward to 2007:
• NAND Flash (Invented in 1980)
Non-Volatile Storage System
Used in USB Flash Drives, MP3 Players & SSDs
Multiple types: Single Level Cell(SLC) & Multi Level
Cell(MLC)
Guess and Check reading and writing
9. SLC Flash MLC Flash
Apply Voltage
Wait for Reaction
• Return Result or
• Apply More Voltage, Repeat
10. Difference?
• Since there are only 2 possible values of SLC it
only takes 1 voltage to return a 0 or 1
• MLC requires a maximum of 3 different voltages to
assure that the value will be found.
• Random Read Speeds:
SLC: 25 µs MLC: 50 µs
• Random Write Speeds:
SLC: 250 µs MLC: 900 µs
11.
12. We’ve all used SSDs before, the same
technology is used in USB Flash Drives
and they only function around 5-40MB/s.
What if we use 10 USB Flash Drives in
raid as a HDD?
• Anywhere between 40GB – 320GB
• Possible access speed of 50-400MB/s
13. Each SSD board contains any number of
NAND ICs, chip used to store data, all
depending on how expensive the board is.
Each SDD board also contains any
number of support channels, normally one
per NAND IC, which allows the controller
to communicate to each NAND IC.
14.
15. The sheer speed of a SSD comes from the
fact that it can access each of its NAND IC
at exactly the same time.
While Platter HDDs like to have
reads/writes to be in the same location for
future access SSDs would rather have the
data spread evenly across all of its NAND
ICs for maximum accessibility.
16. You have it all in an SSD:
• Almost instantaneous read and write times
• The ability to read or write in multiple locations at
once
• The speed of the drive scales extremely well with
the number of NAND ICs on board
But…
17. To erase the value in flash memory the
original voltage must be reset to neutral
before a new voltage can be applied,
known as write amplification.
Random Erase Speed:
• SLC 2ms per block MLC 2ms per block
What is this block stuff?
18. 1 or 2 bits does us no good
Pages!!!
• 1 Page = 4KB coincidence?
Block = 128 Pages = 512 KB
Plane = 1024 Blocks = 512 MB
• Depending on the board the combining keeps
going up until you get a single chip, NAND IC, on
the board
19. Wait a sec, we can write and read a single page of
data from a SSD but we have to delete an entire block
to release it?
I guess its ok since we are able to write to individual
pages on the SSD, oh there’s one more thing the page
has to be empty before we can write to it…crap.
To make matters worse, a standard MLC can only be
erased 10,000 times before it goes bad.
Solution: Lets not actually delete files when they are
deleted on the OS, much like a platter drive.
20. Rather then deleting the block and writing the modified
block with the new page back in the original location
just write the modified block to another location in
memory.
Believe it or not drives were actually shipped with this
solution, never thinking about what happened when
the drive filled up.
After the drive filled up the amount of time to write a
block of data went from 250 µs to 250 µs + 2ms since
it also had to delete a block. This actually made the
SSDs slower then a regular platter drive when writing.
25. Finally lets write a 12kb pic to the SSD. How
long should it take? 1 kb/s write speed
26. What’s wrong here?
• The OS is told there are 3 open pages on the SSD
when there are only 2 available.
• Time for the SSD to do some fancy footwork to
open up the space.
Banking on the quality of the SSD hopefully it has an
onboard cache otherwise it has to use ram, taking
much longer and consuming CPU cycles.
27. Step 1: Read block into
cache
Step 2: Delete page from
cache
Step 3: Write new pic into
cache
Step 4: Delete the old
block on SSD
Step 5: Write cache to
SSD
28. The OS only thought it was writing 12 KBs of
data when in fact the SSD had to read 12
KBs and then write 20KBs, the entire block.
Since the SSD is quite slow the operation
should have taken 12 secs but actually took
26 seconds, resulting in a write speed of
.46KB/s not 1KB/s
That’s one hefty cut to the performance of the
drive, how could we fix the problem and save
SSDs from an early grave?
29. Why not just delete the file when it is deleted from
the OS, or a relatively short time afterwards, and
clear the page in the block out?
Actually this fixes the problem of running out of
space, but what happens when we try to overwrite
a file, ie saving an updated word document?
Unfortunately there is no way around having to
read the block containing the original file into
cache and deleting it, however there is a choice to
do it before or after the write. Which is better?
30. So what happens when I want to do a
fresh install of my OS on the HDD?
Should I just follow the standard reformat
option and install like normal?
31. Believe it or not there is actually a
command for “trimming” the entire drive so
it appears brand new, except for the fact
that the life span of each NAND cell has
been decreased by one.
• Intel and many of the SSD manufactures supports
a command called HDD ERASE that permanently
deletes the data on the drive.
32. Data Recovery?
• On a standard HDD data recovery of deleted files
is quite easy because the actual bits are still on
the HDD since the HDD doesn’t actually delete
them.
• What happens with TRIM?
Severely reduces the possibility of locating deleted files
on the drive, making computer forensics impossible.
33. Surprisingly there isn't much difference
between the NAND Flash memory used in
each SSD since it is all made by 4 different
providers, each using the same design.
The true difference in the drive is the
controller that is being used, it’s actually the
controller that decides which algorithms to
use and how to manage memory.
34. Intel:
• From the get go in 2007 intel has had the strongest
grip on the market of SSDs, they produce their own
controller and the NAND Flash Memory.
Garbage:
• There were quite a few companies that started up and
died quickly trying to create controllers that beat Intel
and they all failed except
Sand Force:
• Arguable the best controller on the market right now
any company that has a SSD that performs well is
using a Sand Force controller, except for Intel who is
trying to catch up.
36. Sand Force has released information
about a new controller they have been
developing claiming to literally double the
output of the current controller and SSD on
the market.
Doubling come on, I’ve always believed if
something is to good to be true it probably
is. Well its true.
38. Lets say the SSD
• Saves 10 Mins per day of your computing time
• For 7 Days a week
• That’s 60 Hours a year
• Minimum wage = 7.25$/hr
• Total Savings: 440$ a year
Its strange to think about it that way but
here’s proof as to how it can work that way.
39. Guess what I have today?
• OCZ Revodrive in a computer that actually has
the power to use the drive.
40. Pros:
SSDs are extremely fast
SSDs are easy to use
SSDs are the future of media storage
Cons:
SSDs are expensive
SSDs are constantly upgrading
SSDs are complicated to understand
