Simple, effective, and FAST.Īn SSD cannot write anything but a completely empty block, and its internal blocks are HUGE.
Re-use merely overwrites entire blocks (no read-modify-write involved). When a file is deleted with traditional rotating drives, only the directory entry is cleared, and the actual data blocks are simply added to the free pool to be re-used later. In my opinion, SSD drives have a problem because of an assumption in File Systems.
