Though you wouldn’t know it from reading today’s headlines, America’s banking history is one littered with a number of principled and driven personalities who went to any length to maintain the public’s faith in the financial system as a whole. In October of 1907, John Pierpont Morgan rounded up a consortium of his contemporaries to stem a potentially disastrous run on the Trust Company of America.

Solid state technology, such as flash-memory, is a type of storage with no moving parts. When used as a disk drive, it provides a more reliable and higher performing alternative to traditional hard disk drives. Solid state drives (SSDs) have been in use for several years in laptops and, until recently, were associated primarily with consumer products and USB storage devices. However, solid state storage is taking a more prominent role in the enterprise computing market as the cost gap narrows between SSDs and hard drives, and companies demand higher performing systems.
