The notion of object-based storage devices (OSDs) has been proposed to overcome the limitations of the traditional block-level interface which hinders the development of intelligent storage devices. The main idea of OSD is to virtualize the physical storage into a pool of objects and offload the burden of space management into the storage device. We explore the possibility of adopting this idea for...
Recently, NAND flash-based Solid State Drives (SSDs) have been rapidly adopted in laptops, desktops, and server storage systems because their performance is superior to that of traditional magnetic disks. However, NAND flash memory has some limitations such as out-of-place updates, bulk erase operations, and a limited number of write operations. To alleviate these unfavorable characteristics, various...
Solid state disks (SSDs) consisting of NAND flash memory are being widely used in laptops, desktops, and even enterprise servers. SSDs have many advantages over hard disk drives (HDDs) in terms of reliability, performance, durability, and power efficiency. Typically, the internal hardware and software organization varies significantly from SSD to SSD and thus each SSD exhibits different parameters...
A disk-on-module (DOM) is a NAND flash memory-based device with legacy I/O interface which does not require any special device driver due to the presence of flash translation layer (FTL). FTL is an intermediate software layer which makes DOMs look like conventional hard disk drives. Since DOMs are usually used in mass-market consumer electronics devices, they are extremely cost sensitive; hence FTL...
