A solid-state drive is significantly quicker than any regular hard-disk drive. The reason is that an HDD 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 employs modules of flash memory, so there are no physically moving components. The access speeds for an SSD are substantially higher, which makes these drives a preferred solution if speed is needed. Because of this SSDs are in many cases employed for the Operating System on a desktop or notebook and for saving data which is accessed often on servers. A large number of service providers also use a combination of the two drives, so they store the data on HDDs, but they use several solid-state drives in order to cache the more often used data and because of this, the data loads a lot quicker while the load on the HDDs is lowered as their disks need to spin less often to read and write.

SSD with Data Caching in Shared Hosting

Our state-of-the-art cloud website hosting platform uses exclusively SSD drives, so if you get any of our shared hosting packages, you will take full advantage of the speed that these drives provide. We no longer use HDDs, so your files, databases and e-mail messages will all open from high-speed SSDs. For even improved performance, we use caching SSDs. A group of drives are used by our system for every file that's accessed more often and the data on these drives is dynamically refreshed to make sure that all of the traffic-intensive files load from them. This way, the load on the main drives is lowered, so we can guarantee exceptional performance for all Internet sites irrespective of how frequently they are accessed and prevent a situation where some Internet sites are affected by an excessive number of reading and writing processes created by others. This setup also raises the lifespan of the primary drives and reduces the chance of disk failure.

SSD with Data Caching in Semi-dedicated Hosting

In case you need speed and top-notch performance for your websites, our semi-dedicated hosting accounts will be a really suitable solution as they're generated on a cloud platform that employs SSDs for each aspect of the service - emails, databases and files. That way, each Internet site that you host with us will load fast. Just like other companies, we also use SSDs for caching, but since all storage drives are solid-state ones, you'll be able to take advantage of the good performance at all times and whatever the type of your Internet sites. The caching solid-state drives are used for load-balancing and all of the frequently accessed content is copied on them, which both minimizes the load and guarantees the optimal performance of all Internet sites which load straight from the primary drives. The lifespan of the latter is also increased because there will be substantially less reading and writing processes on them.
