EXCHANGE RECOVERY USEFULNESS

Image
Microsoft Exchange Server is Microsoft's email, calendar, contacts, scheduling, and collaboration platform. It is implemented on the Windows Server operating system (OS) for commercial use. Exchange Server is designed to allow users to access the messaging platform from mobile devices, desktop computers, and web-based systems. This article explains what you can do with it and what the different versions of Microsoft Exchange Server mean. How Does Exchange Server Work? Exchange Server is an enterprise-grade collaboration product primarily focused on sending, receiving, and storing email messages. In addition to message management, Exchange Server offers several other collaboration features, such as calendars and tight integration with other Microsoft Office applications. High availability is one of its main feature. These provide continuous service in various failure scenarios, including design paths that can guarantee service during single server or data center outages. These...

SOLID STATE DRIVES (SSD)

We've heard a lot about this new solid-state drive technology, which is faster than mechanical drives known as hard drives (HDD). And indeed, that speed manages to give agility to any computer where it is installed. Processor, memory, and other device technologies have evolved, but storage disks lagged behind.

I do not want to go into very technical details of solid state drives, those can be seen here, but if you know their advantages and disadvantages.

Advantages of Solid State Disks

·        Read and write speed. The operating system loads much faster, files and programs open faster, and information is copied and saved in less time).

·        It is not damaged by movement (hit, fall, etc.). As it does not have the magnetic needles and the discs rotating, when it falls or falls, it does not suffer an imbalance that damages the reading of information.

·        New ports better technologies. The SSD is not tied to the SATA port (6 Gb/s), which allows it to use ports that support higher bandwidths and faster read and write speeds such as the M.2 port.

·        They get much less hot. By not having plates turning, the SSD does not produce heat compared to that produced by the hard disk. Which contributes to the whole system being cooler.

·        They are smaller. SATA SSDs are even more chassis than disk, but they are made larger to fill the space of a laptop hard drive.

Disadvantages of Solid State Disks

·        Higher cost for less capacity. Being a new technology, the costs of SSDs are higher than HDDs and with less capacities in gigabytes. This has gradually improved as SSDs are the new industry standard.

·        Internal memories suffer wear and tear and are based on useful cycles, if a cell completes its useful cycles, it stops working, leaving the cell unusable and inaccessible, which can result in loss of information. Cells have many useful cycles and SSDs can last for many years, depending on usage.

·        Due to the type of technology and that it is still a new technology, data recovery is still in its infancy, but companies that are dedicated to creating software have made progress in this regard, although it is still far behind HDD recovery.

Solution to a Disadvantage

As you can see there are more advantages than disadvantages, however, the disadvantages seem to affect the most delicate of a device that serves for storage, the information. Although solid state disks have an algorithm that efficiently uses the cycles of each cell, with use it is destined to be damaged (also the HDD, but they can last for many years). But everything has a solution and that is that cloud computing comes to be associated with the SSD and allows us to have an almost automatic backup of our information and thus be able to forget to back up every certain time. If our SSD is damaged we have a complete backup in the cloud so we will only have to replace it with a new SSD and download our information again.
