the moment of inertia of a solid cylinder about an axis passing
through its COM and parallel to its length is mr2/2 where r is the
radius.

Moment of inertia depends upon the distribution of mass with
respect to the axis of rotation.The greater the distance between
the bulk of an object's mass and the axis of rotation, the greater
the moment of inertia will be. A solid disk has its mass
distributed evenly across its diameter, while a ring has its mass
concentrated furthest from the centre of rotation.
