Abstract: Solid-state drives are widely used nowadays for its superiority of low latency,shock resistance and internal parallelism.How to enhance the performance of solid-state drives (SSDs) is one of the hot research topics.We explored SSDs’ external behavior through experiments and found that high ratio of read requests is favorable for better SSDs’ throughput.Based on these observations,a method called RODI (Read-only Data Isolation) was put forward,which isolates read-only load to certain SSDs from the rest to increase heterogeneous SSDs’ total throughput.Experiment results show that RODI method can effectively improve heterogeneous solid-state drives’ throughput.

Key words: Heterogeneous solid-state drives,Throughput enhancement,Solid-state drives characteristics
