Such a dual storage system combines the advantages of higher speed flash memory with lower storage cost hard disk drives.
Built from the highest quality components, it employs synchronous NAND flash technology capable of more than twice the performance of the average asynchronous SSDs, delivering the best speed and performance available in flash-based storage for both uncompressed and compressed files.

In addition, a recent effort is under way to make use of the many PCIe-based interfaces that are developing as a consequence of the high speed data transfers that are possible using flash memory and future non-volatile memory devices.
Here's a central truth of our time: Talent and capital flash around the world at the speed of light in search of opportunity.
And one question that became especially relevant after the flash crash was whether high-speed traders who reliably supplied liquidity would do so in crisis.
Models configured with an ultra-fast SSD flash drive give you ultra-speed access to files around ten times faster than a standard hard disk drive.

STEC's systems help compensate for the weaknesses of flash memory chips, namely the lack of speed and reliability.
Critics say flash orders give a select group of high-speed traders a window into the direction of the market, giving them the ability to trade at lightning speeds ahead of less fleet-footed investors.
Going forward, LSI is firmly established as a central player in some of the most critical growth trends in computing, including cloud, Big Data, mobile networking and flash, with products that are bringing exciting new levels of speed and productivity to our customers.
Flash memory does not have the mechanical limitations of hard drives, so an SSD has better speed, noise, and power consumption.
FORBES: SSD Flash Storage is Transforming Tomorrow's Business
While there are a raft of bells and whistles -- a new welcome page, curvy Australis tabs, Flash and HTML5 support, for starters -- it's the browser's newfound speed that is getting the MVP treatment.
