5 Reasons Why Solid State Drives Are Safer
5 Reasons Why Solid State Drives are Safer
Solid State Drives is the new technology behind storage capacity be it in computers, PCs, and pretty much anything that utilizes 0’s and 1’s, nowadays. Compared to HDD (Hard Disk Drives), they surpass this old age technology at every aspect, from performance to life expectancy. However, SSDs are more expensive too in that respect, but considering all the advantages, the hefty price tag is a small price to pay, especially if you have data that is so crucial that you can’t bring yourself to part with it. Speaking of back up storages, and forgetting everything that you know right now in terms of design and architecture between the two, which option is safer to use as compared to the other?
Basically,

NTFS is use for security encryption. FAT32 has no security encryption that one reason why Microsoft made NTSF so people can some type of security encryption. It is available in all versions of Windows developed for business environments from Windows 2000 onwards. Encryption is the process of encoding messages or information in such a way that only authorized parties can read it. Encryption does not of itself prevent interception, but denies the message content to the interceptor…

    All computers today have GB or TB. I was just in Wal-Mart today and saw a removable hard-drive with a 2TB capacity for only $150, and there was even a 3TB hard-drive. When I went over to staples and looked at all the computers I didn’t see any fewer than 750 GB of ROM and 4 GB of RAM. With technology in the world today expanding so quickly it is not farfetched to see hard-drives with 100 TB capacities in the near future. If you went by Moore’s Law, which I know is for transistors but I think goes along with many other things, I…

    I am writing to you to inform you about potential cost saving move our company needs to consider. As IT director I have found time and time again. We are spending tons of money on Replacement DVD-Roms, DVD's, Storage space to house these disk, security for these disk. I also see a security risk for losing this data. I have Done some research to fined a cost saving move this company could make so solve these issues. My solution: External Mass Storage Devices. This is in the means of USB Thumb drives or portable hard drives. Both hold tons of data. USB Thumb drives come in full range of sizes. Today I carry a 32 GB drive that houses all most anything I will ever need on my to contain data. I would recommend or company to quit spending money on DVD drives and replace them with USB Drives for portable exchangement of data around the company. We can encrypt these drives for security, place RDIF chips for tracking just like our name badges, and price per GB is nearly half at first we purchase them, but with the reliability of theses drives there wont be replacements made from failure. No more scratch Disk. I also recommend 1TB USB external hard drives for back up of data for all portable computers in our company for those that work out side of our office. Please put this into consideration when budging for the next quarter. If we were to 100 USB drives of the office it would cost us around $ 1,000.00. We are spending $35.00 on Dual Layer DVDs per person per month. This is costing us $3,500.00 per month. I also spent $600.00 dollars last quarter on DVD drives. I wanted you to look at USB Back Up Drives. I found this: WD My Passport Air 1TB All Metal USB 3.0 Ultra-slim External Portable Hard Drive Storage. This will do the job and has enough room for extra space when needed. This would cost us $130.00 each, at 20 people needing these it would run us $2,600.00. this would make our total $3,600.00 dollars for the next quarter with no…

    RAID (Redundant Array of Independent Disks) is a storage technology that combines multiple disk drive components into a logical unit. Data is distributed across the drives in one of several ways called "RAID levels", depending on what level of redundancy and performance (via parallel communication) is required. Marketers representing industry RAID manufacturers later attempted to reinvent the term to describe a redundant array of independent disks as a means of dissociating a low-cost expectation from RAID technology. RAID is now used as an umbrella term for computer data storage schemes that can divide and replicate data among multiple physical drives. The physical drives are said to be in a RAID array, which is accessed by the operating system as one single drive. The different schemes or architectures are named by the word RAID followed by a number (e.g., RAID 0, RAID 1). Each scheme provides a different balance between two key goals: increase data reliability and increase input/output performance.…

    While magnetic and semi-conductorbased information storage devices have been in use since the middle 1950's, today's computers and volumes of information require increasingly more efficient and faster methods of storing data. Whilethe speed of integrated circuit random access memory (RAM)has increased steadily over the past ten to fifteen years, the limits of these systems are rapidly approaching. In response to the rapidly changing face of computing and demand for physically smaller, greater capaticy, bandwidth, a number of alternative methods to…
