Solid State Drives vs. Hard Disk Drives

SSD

• Excel in speed, high performance, Input/Output requirements.
• High reliability due to lack of spinning disks.
• Go through a rigorous validation process before they are ever considered as additions to the PowerEdge server portfolio.

HDD

• Best when used as part of a complete storage strategy that balances cost per gigabyte, capacity, application needs and performance.
• Lower price-to-capacity, which can be most beneficial for large-capacity workloads or applications requiring large amounts of storage used for data such as archives, disk backups, image libraries or logs.

Storage Drive Types

• Solid State SAS and SATA Drives: Fast storage medium for random IO.
• 10K & 15K SAS Hard Drives: Performance and availability for performance optimized applications.
• 7.2K SAS & SATA Hard Drives: High capacity and exceptional $/GB for capacity optimized applications.
• Entry Drives: Least expensive drives used in applications where low usage and limited total number of drives are applicable. Due to restrictions on use, these drives are available in a small number of systems and configurations.

Increase the storage capacity of your Dell™ System with 240 GB Solid State Drive from Dell. It boasts a storage capacity of up to 240 GB, enabling users to store large amounts of data. This drive delivers enhanced data transfer speed of up to 6 Gbps.

• Offers up to 240 GB storage capacity
• Equipped with SATA interface which delivers high data transfer rate
• Solid State design offers ruggedness and fast data access

Benefits of SSD over spin drives:

• More Durable: Feature a non-mechanical design of NAND flash mounted on circuit boards, and are more shock resistant.
• Faster: Faster data access, boot ups, file transfers, and an overall quicker computing experience than hard drives.
• Quieter: Run at near silent operation unlike loud, whirring hard disc drives.
• Lighter: Flash-based SSDs weigh considerably less.
• Cooler: SSDs require little power to operate, resulting in less heat output by your system.
• More Efficient: Consume less power at peak load.
