Computer based holography such as electro-holography and digital holography advances because the resolution of an imaging display and a sensing device such as a liquid crystal display (LCD) and a charge coupled device (CCD) becomes higher. The higher resolution of an imaging device requires a more powerful computing system. On the other hand, a solid state drive (SSD) develops as a storage device of computers. We studied the effectiveness of an SSD for a large-scale digital holography calculation. When the calculation data scale exceeds the main memory capacity, the SSD system showed better performance compared with a hard disk drive (HDD) system at computational speed and stability.
