Hydra flash memory outperforms other top storage mediums

(PhysOrg.com) -- Although today flash memory is primarily used as a removable storage medium, it's currently becoming more and more appealing for a wider variety of applications. Moving beyond memory cards and flash drives, flash memory solid-state disks (SSDs) are already beginning to replace the hard disk drives (HDDs) in mobile computing systems, such as tablets and notebook PCs. Taking another step in this direction, a team of researchers from Korea has recently integrated and tested several improvements into SSDs to create a new flash architecture called Hydra, whose performance has proven to be significantly better than several other storage mediums that the researchers examined.
