Disk Options and Comparisons
From Bobs Projects
We have 3 disk options that conform with the low power requirement (< 2-3 Watts?):
To compare options amongst these drives, we need common parameters that give us a decent and standard metric. Some parameters are:
- Power Consumption (Idle and Peak)
- Read/Write Speed (Data Transfer Rate)
- Sequential Data
- Random Data
- Cost per Gigabyte
- I/O Interface Support and Bottlenecks
- PCIe
- USB 2.0/3.0
- SD/MMC
