Amazing Performance Improvement in Old Server With Datacentre SSDs
- From Category5 Technology TV S14E06
- December 9, 2020
It's time to upgrade the storage in our old server. Robbie sets out to see if he can genuinely tell the difference between his old spinning SAS drives and Kingston's DC500R SATA SSDs. Mark Noland from Kingston joins us to discuss the FIO benchmark results, how businesses of all sizes can benefit from the switch to SSD, and what's next to further improve storage performance in the server room. We'll also learn how datacentre drives differ from the standard SSD, and why Kingston's DC500 will outperform them long term.
