Short stroking reduces latency and increases performance of relative cost per gigabyte of ssds .
Short stroking is the process of formatting a disk drive so that information is only written to the platters' outermost sectors.
Data tiering may be combined with short stroking.
The crucial data is located on the disk's outer borders where the robotic arm can more readily access it, while the least important data is located in the disk's center where it is harder to retrieve.
Environments that use short stroking generally have to increase the number of disk drives to make up for the decreased capacity used in each disk drive. This is wasteful in addition to being expensive. Having zero seek time, solid-state storage can be a more affordable option. For instance, if a company is short-selling aggressively.
