E.V.O.: Search for Eden - hidden SNES game probably you dint know exist

  E.V.O.: Search for Eden — overview E.V.O.: Search for Eden is a distinctive SNES action-adventure / action-RPG that blends side-scrolling platform combat with an evolution-based progression system. Developed by Almanic (also credited as Givro/Almanic) and published by Enix, it casts the player as a creature guided by Gaia through billions of years of Earth’s history while evolving body parts to survive and progress. Release date, platform, developer and publisher Initial release (Japan): December 21, 1992. North America release: July 1993 (commonly listed as July 15, 1993 in regional release records). Platform: Super Nintendo Entertainment System (SNES / Super Famicom). Developer / Publisher: Almanic (developer); Enix (publisher). Sales and commercial performance There are no widely cited, reliable public figures for total copies sold of E.V.O.: Search for Eden in standard reference sources.

World of SSD

 


How SSDs Work

SSDs use NAND flash memory to store data. Unlike traditional HDDs with spinning disks, SSDs have no moving parts. This lack of mechanical components results in faster data access times, reduced power consumption, and improved durability.


Types of SSDs

1. SATA SSDs:

Adhere to the SATA III standard, offering a maximum data transfer rate of 6 GB/s.

Outperform HDDs significantly, with read/write speeds up to 550 MB/s1.


2. NVMe SSDs:

Utilize the NVMe (Non-Volatile Memory Express) protocol for even faster performance.

Available in M.2 and U.2 form factors.

Achieve read/write speeds well beyond 1,000 MB/s.


3. M.2 SSDs:

Compact form factor that connects directly to the motherboard.

Supports both SATA and NVMe protocols.

Ideal for laptops and compact desktops.


PCIe Standards

SSDs connect via PCIe (Peripheral Component Interconnect Express) slots on the motherboard.

PCIe versions include 3.0, 4.0, and 5.0.

Higher PCIe versions offer increased bandwidth, enhancing data transfer rates.


Durability and Data Rewriting

SSDs have limited write endurance due to NAND flash wear.

Modern SSDs use wear-leveling algorithms to distribute write cycles evenly across memory cells.

Typical consumer SSDs can handle hundreds of terabytes written (TBW) before reaching their endurance limits.

For example high end ssd Samsung 990 PRO 1TB SSD offers impressive performance and durability. Here are some key features:

Sequential Read/Write Speeds: Up to 7,450 MB/s read and 6,900 MB/s write.

Endurance (TBW): The 1TB model has an estimated 1380 TBW.

Energy Efficiency: The 990 PRO consumes less power while delivering superior performance per watt compared to the 980 PRO.

Remember though those are producers data cycle data and it can differ alot due to silicon lottery on your ssd.


Speed Comparison: SSD vs. HDD

A typical SATA III SSD achieves read/write speeds around 550 MB/s and 520 MB/s, while an HDD manages only around 125 MB/s.

SSDs excel in random I/O performance, making them ideal for multitasking and boot times.

HDDs are slower but offer higher capacities at a lower cost per gigabyte.

In summary, SSDs provide speed, durability, and efficiency, while HDDs offer greater storage capacity. The choice depends on your specific needs and budget.
