" I am a crazy fellow of technology like most of you <3. "
When something new happens in this technological world I get
boosted up. The recent one that drew my mind was APPLE’S FUSION DRIVE technology. Well, let me start explaining with this basic thing…
General Storage used in our laptops/desktops are
- Hard disk drive(HDD) --- inexpensive but slow in accessing the data
- Flash drive --- fast in data access but expensive
And now a new drive called FUSION DRIVE??? So what is fusion drive???
Well, it’s simply a combination of both the drives…
It consists of two parts.
Part 1: The FLASH
drive PART
Part 2: The HARD drive PART
So how does it work???
The more frequently used stuff (including software,
Operating System and other important data) is stored in the FLASH drive part and
the other data(like movies, photos, music) in the HDD part of the FUSION drive. Sounds interesting…! Let’s take a look at the speeds of data access
of flash, hdd and fusion drives….
Speeds of DATA ACCESS IN FUSION DRIVE, HDD and FLASH |
The most sensational thing is that mac OS takes care of
moving the stuff (like programs, data) to flash/hdd parts of the fusion drive
based the frequent usage. So we don’t need to setup anything... Simply, it is COMPLETELY
AUTOMATED. Isn’t it too comfortable? Thanks to technology…
Thank you… J
Good day... J
