A solid-state drive is noticeably quicker than any standard hard disk. The reason is that an HDD uses spinning disks, which can rotate only so fast and the more information is read and written, the sluggish and warmer they get, whereas an SDD uses modules of flash memory, so there are no actually moving components. The access speeds for an SSD are significantly higher, which makes this sort of drives the best solution in case speed is needed. That's why SSDs are frequently employed for the Operating System on a computer system and for saving data that's accessed repeatedly on servers. Numerous providers also use a combination of the two drives, so they keep the data on HDDs, but they use several SSDs so as to cache the more frequently used data and as a result, the data loads faster while the load on the HDDs is reduced as their disks need to spin less frequently in order to read and write.

SSD with Data Caching in Shared Hosting

In case you host your websites in a shared hosting account with us, you'll notice their excellent performance. This is because our cloud platform uses only SSD drives for all of the files, e-mail addresses and databases and we do not use HDDs for any part of the web hosting service. Along with the amazing ZFS file system, this setup will increase the speed of your Internet sites tremendously. For load-balancing, we also use multiple SSDs for caching purposes only. Any content that generates more traffic or causes lots of reading/writing processes is duplicated on them promptly, so that the load on the primary drives will be reduced, thus the overall performance of all websites hosted on our end will improve. The latter in turn prolongs the life of the primary drives and reduces the possibility of a disk failure, that is another warranty for the integrity of any content that you upload to your account.

SSD with Data Caching in Semi-dedicated Hosting

If you want speed and high-end performance for your Internet sites, our semi-dedicated hosting accounts will be a really suitable solution as they are made on a cloud platform that employs SSDs for each aspect of the service - e-mail addresses, databases and files. That way, every single 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'll be able to take advantage of the good performance all the time and irrespective of the type of your sites. The caching solid-state drives are used for load-balancing and all frequently accessed content is copied on them, which both reduces the load and provides the optimal performance of all Internet sites which load straight from the main drives. The lifespan of the latter is also increased because there will be a lot less reading and writing processes on them.
