These companies design their own products that implement one of those architectures ‍that incorporate different components for consumer electronics such as smartphones, tablets, multimedia players, mobile devices, memories, storage devices including SSDs and NVMe devices .

In modern era of computing, speed through which information needs to be processed has become critical. Processor technology has grown exponentially bringing significant performance enhancements.  Consequently, we are observing rise of faster disk technology and SSD drives which work significantly different and efficiently when comes to speed than traditional hard disks. This article will delve into understanding different options for SSDs and understanding those factors will help to choose better way to manage the life cycle of the data on those drives.

The recommended deletion process is a three-step procedure: sanitization, verification and documentation. We detailed the sanitization method in our previous blog article on data sanitization, and in this article, we will elaborate on verification and documentation.
