This article is part of the Technology Insight series, made possible with funding from Intel. NAND flash media solid state drives (SSDs) have largely displaced hard disk drives (HDDs) in client ...

The rise of flash storage has been a dominant theme in the datacentre in recent years. And rightly so, with performance in the order of 100 times better than spinning disk media. But there are always ...

As storage developers make the transition from legacy SAS and SATA protocol-based SSDs to the more advanced NVMe and SATA Express technologies, they are encountering limitations in available design ...

The history of storage devices is quite literally a race between the medium and the computing power as the bottleneck of preserving billions of ones and zeros stands in the way of computing nirvana.

A lot of debates have been going on regarding whether SATA is better than NVMe or vice versa. The SSD battle goes on, and to choose between the SATA and NVMe, there are a few things that need to be ...

Upgrading a computer's boot drive from a traditional hard drive to an SSD is one of the single best performance upgrades ever. But, if you're like many of us, when you did it SSDs were expensive, and ...

Take that theoretical bandwidth with a grain of salt.

The growth of the PCI Express (PCIe) interface in compute markets is continuing at a brisk rate, with several analysts forecasting 10% to 40% growth in 2013. The big news is that PCIe solid-state ...

Digital storage is an important element in the Open Compute Project and there were many announcements and presentations focusing on digital storage at the 2019 OCP Summit. Digital storage is an ...

How will NVMe flash affect storage area networking, in particular with the introduction of NVMe-over-fabrics? Storage area networks (SANs) and shared storage have been in the enterprise datacentre for ...
