In our days more and more the SSDs are entering our life. The advantage of
providing us faster with information, the quicker elaboration of data, the small size
and the cost decreasing year after year, makes it tempting for someone to buy it.
They definitely work different from the HDDs and so we are facing new challenges in
the sector of forensics with these disks.
The purpose of this paper is to give the reader one more part in the foggy picture
of what is going on nowadays in the field of forensics in SSDs. Reading this paper you
will get a lot of information and knowledge around the SSDs and what happens in
the forensic part. In order to achieve that, after providing our reader with the proper
information, we are checking some possible scenarios of finding evidence in our disk
even after a quick format, the results will surprise you!
