I love SSDs! Solid-State Drives or SSDs are storage devices that use solid-state memory to store data instead of spinning hard disks. The SSD is quickly replacing the older-style spinning hard disks that almost everyone has in their computers right now.
In the spirit of the Geek Week blog entries on our blog, I wanted to go all-out and share details about our recent migration to use faster hard drives in our servers. As such, this info will go in-depth and will be technical in nature. However, you don’t need to be very technical to follow along since I’ll do my best to explain it thoroughly. (Beware of a little bit of occasional all-out geeking, though. ;-))
