InfoWeek video series chronicles storage and SSD Evolution. Part 1 runs 8 minutes, 42 seconds

25 May 2010 • 1 minute read
Can you spare nine minutes to get a really good grounding in SSD concepts? No? How about eight minutes and forty-two seconds? Ah, now we’re talking. Information Week and with Storage Switzerland’s Lead Analyst George Crump have produced an excellent 4-part video tutorial series on SSDs. Each part runs less than 10 minutes and Part 1 covers the technical side of storage evolution in a concise and interesting way that’s sure to interest even the most experienced computer-storage techno-geek in precisely eight minutes and forty-two seconds.


Part 2 covers the use cases for SSD in large, enterprise-class storage situations. Be sure to catch Crump’s expert presentation skills as he deftly manipulates three whiteboard markers at the same time to make his points.


Part 3 provides an in-depth, technical look at the various ways that Solid State Disk is being delivered: as a separate SSD box connected to a SAN system, a drive module in a drive array, and as a PCIE card in a server. Crump explains the application of each approach, including the trade-offs and benefits. (Note: Parts 3 and 4 aren't available as embedded video, so there are links instead.)

Part 4 of the video tutorial looks at SSD cost ramifications and advantages over mechanical storage.
