A solid-state drive is substantially quicker than any standard hard-disk drive. It is because an HDD works by using spinning disks, which can rotate only so fast and the more info is read and written, the sluggish and warmer they get, whereas an SDD takes advantage of modules of flash memory, therefore there are no actually moving parts. The access speeds for an SSD are drastically higher, which makes this sort of drives a preferred solution if speed is needed. That's why SSDs are in many cases employed for the Operating System on a laptop or computer and for saving data that's used often on hosting servers. Numerous service providers also use a combination of the two drives, so they save the data on hard disk drives, but they use several SSDs in order to cache the more often used data and because of that, the data loads quicker while the load on the HDDs is decreased as their disks need to spin less often in order to read and write.

SSD with Data Caching in Shared Website Hosting

Our innovative cloud website hosting platform uses exclusively SSD drives, so in case you purchase any of our shared website hosting plans, you'll benefit from the speed that these drives provide. We no longer use hard disk drives, so your files, databases and emails will all load from extremely fast SSDs. For even greater performance, we use caching SSDs. Multiple drives are used by our system for every file that's accessed more regularly and the data on these drives is dynamically refreshed in order to make sure that all traffic-intensive files load from them. In this way, the load on the main drives is decreased, so we can provide perfect performance for all sorts of Internet sites regardless of how frequently they're accessed and prevent a situation where some sites are affected by an excessive number of reading and writing processes created by others. This setup also increases the lifespan of the primary drives and reduces the risk of disk failure.

SSD with Data Caching in Semi-dedicated Servers

If you want speed and high-end performance for your sites, our semi-dedicated server accounts will be a really suitable solution as they are made on a cloud platform that uses SSDs for every part of the service - e-mails, databases and files. That way, each and every website that you host here will load fast. Similar to other providers, we also use SSDs for caching, but since all storage drives are solid-state ones, you will be able to take advantage of the top-notch performance all of the time and regardless of the nature of your Internet sites. The caching solid-state drives are used for load-balancing and all frequently accessed content is copied to them, which both decreases the load and guarantees the good performance of all websites that load from the primary drives. The lifespan of the latter is also increased since there will be substantially less reading and writing processes on them.
