A solid-state drive is incredibly quicker than any standard hard-disk drive. The reason is that a hard-disk drive employs rotating disks, which can rotate only so fast and the more information is read and written, the slower and warmer they get, whereas an SDD operates with modules of flash memory, so there aren't any actually moving parts. The access speeds for an SSD are drastically higher, which makes this type of drives an ideal solution if speed is needed. This is the reason why SSDs are often used for the Operating System on a personal computer and for saving data that is accessed repeatedly on hosting servers. Many service providers also use a combination of both drives, so they save the data on HDDs, but they use a couple of solid-state drives in order to cache the more often used data and due to this fact, the data loads faster while the load on the HDDs is decreased as their disks need to spin less frequently to read and write.

SSD with Data Caching in Cloud Hosting

We use only SSDs on our top-notch cloud hosting platform and we have removed all HDDs on our production servers so as to provide outstanding loading speeds for every aspect of our services - files, e-mails and databases. This way, any content that you upload to your cloud hosting account will be accessible very fast. In order to boost the overall performance of the websites hosted on our end even further, we also use multiple SSDs that function solely as cache - our system stores often accessed content on them and updates it instantly. We employ this kind of a setup to ensure that resource-demanding Internet sites do not influence the performance of the other Internet sites hosted on our platform and that way all other sites can also take full advantage of the speed which the SSD drives provide. Furthermore, since the load on the main drives is decreased, their lifespan will be longer, which is one more guarantee for the security and stability of your information.

SSD with Data Caching in Semi-dedicated Hosting

If you subscribe for one of our semi-dedicated hosting solutions, we will keep your content on SSD drives and this is valid not just for the files, but also for all databases and e-mails. Thus, your script-driven applications and webmail will load very fast. We employ dedicated SSDs for caching too. Traffic-intensive content is duplicated automatically on these drives, so we ensure that a couple of heavy Internet sites which generate plenty of reading and writing processes won't influence the other Internet sites that share the exact same drive. By reducing the overall load we also increase the lifespan of the primary storage drives and decrease the chance of a disk failure, so by employing SSD drives for caching purposes, we add another level of security for your content.
