Seagate Technology announced that it has made the shipment of 10 million solid state hybrid drive (SSHD).
Traditional HDD, for the most part, very inexpensive, but at theperformance levelhas long been virtually no increases: those gain that we are seeing are probably a side effect of improving the firmware, controllers, and general hardware .
In recent years, has evolved segment drives based on flash memory. They show much higher performance level .
Seagate and Samsung's developer conference Windows Hardware Engineering Conference (WinHEC), held in Seattle in 2006, demonstrated the first examples of the boundary mass storage class: in one case combined classical magnetic chip and flash memory, which acted as a kind of cache, storing the data, which were the most common treatment. This "trick" allowed to get some performance gain, but the price is not too noticeable increase in the cost of the device. And they were originally positioned as for notebooks devices, the use of home PCs started later.
It should be noted that a few years Seagate acquired manufacturing facility for the production of Samsung HDD-drives, and now actually is a manufacturer-monopoly SSHD. Related Products :
