GREAT job explaining the info in a short time. Helped even a non tech savvy guy like me, get an understanding how this stuff works. The ONLY shortcoming was, no mention of how eMMC fits into all this.

Great video, it confirmed my answer. About this Mac on Macs that come with Flash Storage says “Flash Storage”. When I upgrade a Mac with an SSD, the Mac reports “Solid State SATA Drive”.

I'm making a RAID array for a p-2-p client, I found this very insightful. A flash drive array sounds wacky but I think it would be worthwhile especially since the client will take up very little information.

@slendydie12672 жыл бұрын
@@miao7002 It usually has a higher life span than a Hard Disk too. Also how much you can store is more driven by price than higher capacity. Yes while the SSD is more dense it just means they can make it smaller not that you can store more. So if you are low on physical space SSD makes more sense. 1TB SSD = 1TB HDD. What it comes down to is price now. It is faster for sure tho. That said SSD can have a higher capacity. If they made it the size of an HDD it will have a lot more storage.

Cellphones uses SSD or Flashstore? I'm confused
@blitz82294 жыл бұрын
Cellphones have a solid-state drive. That's the broader term. Because most SSDs consist of Flash Memory, one could say that your phone saves data in its flash, even when turning it off SSD - name of a storage device without moving parts used in an application (smartphone, laptop, PC) Flash Memory - specific type of storage Technology based on floating gate Transistors small differences result in bigger confusion :D

I would like to archive 25 year old video files as .mp4's, these would not be accessed again unless other backup files had been corrupted. Suggestions? Would a thumbdrive be fine since its not being accessed unless one or two times and perhaps never?

I would use a hard drive for that because they are the one of the most reliable storage mediums and also offer large capacity for less money than an ssd

eMMC is a Flash Storage?
@magidavid3 жыл бұрын
Just wanted to drop a friendly note and point out some errors in your video. The oldest type of storage is punch cards, then came tape, and finally HDD. HDD's can actually last decades as I have some that are easily 20 to 30 years old and still have data on them. My oldest HDD from circa 1988 has completely failed, so HDD can last a very long time when properly handled. And lastly, NAND is pronounced NAND not N A N D, and is named after the NAND gate in computer logic. There is also NOR storage, named after the NOR gate in computer logic.

No. Flash is not that reliable and also easily lost. For long long term storage, hdd is still better than ssd. Ssd are best for speed and to boot the OS and programs from.

Silicon is a naturally occurring chemical element, whereas silicone is a synthetic substance. Silicon is the 14th element on the periodic table. It's a metalloid, meaning it has properties of both metals and nonmetals, and is the second most abundant element in the Earth's crust, after oxygen. Silicone, by contrast, is a synthetic polymer made up of silicon, oxygen and other elements, most typically carbon and hydrogen. Silicone is generally a liquid or a flexible, rubberlike plastic, and has a number of useful properties, such as low toxicity and high heat resistance. It also provides good electrical insulation. Source: LiveScience. E.g. - Silicon is used for integrated circuits, silicone is used for weather sealant. I noticed the word silicone in the video quickly and looked for the previous obligatory comment.

‼️🤣 solid state does NOT mean “no moving parts”. Who keeps perpetuating this crap out of nowhere? Solid state is and always was the descriptor used for devices which don’t use VACUUM STATE switches, aka vacuum tubes. Vacuum and solid are just the different mediums used in the two technologies. Dear god the ignorance 🤡 There are solid state radios from the 1950s. Did they need moving parts for non-solid state radios? 🤣
