A solid-state drive is incredibly quicker than any conventional hard-disk drive. The reason is that a hard-disk drive works by using spinning disks, that can rotate only so fast and the more data is read and written, the slower and warmer they become, at the same time an SDD uses modules of flash memory, hence there are no physically moving components. The access speeds for an SSD are significantly higher, which makes this type of drives the right solution any time speed is needed. This is the reason why SSDs are in many cases employed for the Operating System on a desktop or notebook and for saving data that is accessed regularly on web servers. Numerous providers also use a combination of the two drives, so they keep the data on hard disk drives, but they use several SSDs to cache the more frequently used data and for that reason, the data loads much quicker while the load on the HDDs is reduced because their disks have to spin less often to read and write.

SSD with Data Caching in Cloud Hosting

In case you host your sites in a cloud hosting account with us, you'll definitely notice their excellent performance. This is because our cloud platform uses only SSD drives for all files, emails and databases and we do not use HDDs for any part of the Internet hosting service. Together with the amazing ZFS file system, this configuration will raise the speed of your websites significantly. For load-balancing, we also use numerous SSDs for caching purposes only. All the content that generates increased traffic or causes a lot of reading/writing processes is duplicated on them automatically, so that the load on the primary drives will be reduced, thus the overall performance of all Internet sites hosted on our end will be better. The abovementioned subsequently prolongs the life of the primary drives and decreases the chance of a disk failure, which is another guarantee for the reliability of any content which you upload to your account.

SSD with Data Caching in Semi-dedicated Servers

If you want speed and excellent performance for your websites, our semi-dedicated server accounts shall be a really suitable solution as they are generated on a cloud platform which uses SSDs for each part of the service - email addresses, databases and files. This way, every Internet site that you host on our end will load fast. Just like other companies, we also use SSDs for caching, but since all storage drives are solid-state ones, you can take advantage of the top performance all the time and whatever the type of your websites. The caching solid-state drives are used for load-balancing and any frequently accessed content is copied to them, which both minimizes the load and provides the excellent performance of all websites that load directly from the primary drives. The lifespan of the latter will also be increased considering that there will be a lot less reading and writing processes on them.
