  3. 3. History• Storage Devices are evolved as the use of machines is increasing. Punch Cards (in 1940s). Magnetic Tapes/Drives (in 1950s). Hard Drives. Solid State Drives.
  4. 4. Solid State Drive(SSD)• SSD is an PC storage device that uses Solid State memory to store information.• SSD uses non volatile NAND Flash Memory , which enables it to retain data when the power is removed.
  5. 5. NAND Flash Memory• NAND Flash Memory is the key component of SSD.• It is a specific type of EEPROM chip.• It has a grid of columns and rows with a cell that has two transistors at each intersection as Control gate and Floating gate transistor.• The principle of operation is based on MOSFETs.
  6. 6. Types of NAND Flash• Single Level Cell (SLC)• Multi Level Cell (MLC)
  7. 7. SLC vs. MLC ITEM SLC MLCVoltage 3.3V/1.8V 3.3VChip Size 0.12um 0.16umPage Size/Block Size 2KB/128KB 512B/32KB or 2KB/256KBAccess Time(Max.) 25us 70usEndurance 100K 10KCost per Bit more Comparatively lessWrite Data Rate 8MB/s+ 1.5MB/s
  8. 8. SSD ElementsSSD consists of basically three elements:• SSD Controller.• SSD Flash.• SSD Interface.
  9. 9. SSD Controller• Flash controller includes the electronics that bridge the Flash memory components to the SSD input/output interfaces.• The controller is an embedded processor that executes firmware-level software.

  11. 11. SSD Flash• Solid State Flash memory is available using NAND technology.• NAND Flash components come in densities from 1Gb (gigabit) to 64Gb per chip.• NAND Flash components have structures called pages and blocks.• There is an Error Correction Code (ECC) associated with each sector.• NAND Flash has a limited rewrite endurance of about 1,000,000 times per block.

  13. 13. SSD Interface• Interface is used to connect the SSD with the computer.• Also, since SDDs are generally used in conjunction with magnetic disk drives, a common mass storage bus interface is used in most cases.• SSD are available with a variety of system interfaces based primarily on the performance requirements: Serial ATA Serial attached SCSI Fiber Channel USB
  14. 14. SSD Storage Scheme• Groups of NAND flash cells are organized into pages and these pages are organized into blocks.• Read and write operations can be performed on pages, but erase operations can only be performed at the block level.• This means that when rewriting a page, the entire block must be erased first.• The SSD controller manages this process.

  22. 22. Application• SSDs were mainly used in those aspects of mission critical applications where the speed of the storage system needed to be as fast as possible.• Organizations that can benefit from faster access of system data include equity trading companies, telecommunication corporations, and video streaming.• SSD are used as cache at server side of Enterprises.
