Question
You're an IS professional, and your boss has asked you to prepare a briefing for senior staff on the comparative advantages and disadvantages of three competing secondary storage technologies: magnetic hard disk drives, solid-state drives using single-level cell flash memory, and solid-state drives using multilevel cell flash memory. Search the digital librar-ies and technology Web sites listed in this chapter for source material to help you prepare the briefing. Which sites provide the most useful information? Which sites enable you to find useful information easily? Which sites have the most advertising? Which sites seem to con-tain biased information and what is the nature of the bias?Explanation / Answer
After visiting aproximately 50 websites and digital libraries I found the following information
1. Wikipedia is providing thorough information regarding HDD and SSD. It contains an overview with advantages and disadvantages.
2. Websites like storagereview, techopedia, PCencyclopedia etc provide usefull information regarding Disk Drives
3. Versiondaily.com was having more advertising compare to other visited websites.
4. Turbofuture.com seems to contain biased information, as it state that SSD are the future of storage which seem little bit exaggerated as HDD are still cheap and durable medium of storage.
