SSD vs HDD Hosting: The Differences

We want to let you know that now in ClickPanda you can find the SSD Hosting Service. Before we offered Web Hosting (HDD) service, but as we always want to offer you the best in the market we made the decision thinking of you. This is why in this article we will explain the differences between SSD and HDD Hosting.

SSD Hosting vs. HDD Hosting (WEB HOSTING)

SSD Hosting: (Solid State Drive) It is a service that uses solid state drives to store all the information that websites need to function. The solid disk is composed of a series of chips and a much more powerful structure, so it is faster and has greater capacity.

HDD Hosting: (Hard Disk Drive or Hard Disk) It is a traditional magnetic disk in which the reading and processing of data occurs in a similar way to that of a CD or DVD, in other words, these disks (HDD) still have an arm that reads and writes data to a spinning disk; its spinning speed sets the speed at which data can be read or written on it.

Why ClickPanda offers SSD HOSTING?

  • Traffic: SSD disks work faster than traditional disks, so when hosting your web site on a SSD HOSTING the loading speed of your website will improve.

In addition, search engines, such as Google, prefer websites that load fast; therefore,  if you use SSD technology on your site, it will be faster and you have a better chance of ranking higher in search engines.This way you will get more traffic, sales, subscriptions, among others.

  • Reliability: The mechanical parts of an HDD are more likely to be damaged or wear out, although HDDs have improved greatly in this regard in recent years, SSD disks will always be more reliable because their quality is superior.  Regarding the above, we do not want to state that an SSD disk can last a lifetime because they also wear out, but even so, their useful life is longer.  
  • Security: In simple words, in a traditional disk the information is only distributed in one or two disks; on the other hand, in SSD disks the information is distributed among different microchips. it is easier to recover information on an SSD disk or any error or problem that may arise can be solved.
  • Speed: SSDs have faster write speeds because they do not have to search for sections among their mechanical parts. AlsoSSD drives are up to 10 times faster at reading information than an HDD disk. In addition, they take much less time to find the information. Thus, as they are faster in writing, reading and searching for information, their start-up and that of their applications is much faster.
  • Environment: SSDs require about one-fifth of the power to operate than HDD hard disks; in addition, they generate less heat, which is why they require a simpler cooling system.
  • Maintenance: Traditional hard disks need to be maintained to reorganize their data; howeverSSD disks do not require any maintenance.

For these reasons ClickPanda has decided to offer you the SSD HOSTING service. So if what you want is a faster web page, in which you can have more traffic that generates better benefits, that is better positioned in search engines and, in addition, if among your plans is to help improve the environment, leave your doubts aside and switch to a SSD HOSTING.
