Reducing Hybrid Disk Write Latency with Flash-Backed I/O Requests
2007
Proceedings of the ... International Symposium on Modeling, Analysis, and Simulation of Computer and Telecommunication Systems
One of the biggest bottlenecks in desktop-based comput ing is the hard disk with I/O write latency being a key contributor. I/O write latency stems from the mechanical nature of hard disks, of which seek and rotational delays are the major components. Hybrid disk drives place a small amount of flash memory (NVCache) on the drive itself which can be leveraged by the host and has the potential to increase I/O performance and reduce hard disk power consumption. In this paper we present an I/O
