The IBM 100 GB solid-state drives employ enterprise MLC NAND technology to bring an affordable, but performance-driven solution for applications requiring enterprise workloads with a read-write mix. The new SSD drives are available in 1.8-inch and 2.5-inch options.
These SSDs use a single-chip controller with a SATA interface on the system side and n-channels of NAND Flash internally. Packaged in an HDD replacement enclosure, these SSDs are designed to integrate easily in existing storage infrastructures. They are targeted at databases that require high I/O performance in random read and random write operations including applications caching and tiering. These SSDs can also be configured into the IBM eXFlash solution for maximum capacity and performance.
Providing that additional confidence, your 100 GB 1.8-inch and 2.5-inch MLC SSDs are covered under IBM warranty. These drives carry a 1-year limited warranty, or when installed in a System x server, these drives assume the system's base warranty. Solid-state devices do have finite write or P/E cycles and are listed as Total Bytes Written (TBW). Refer to the Limitations section and the device specifications for details.
Features and functions:
- 100 GB 1.8-inch and 2.5-inch MLC SATA SSDs for IBM System x
- 1.8-inch and 2.5-inch industry standard form factors
- Utilization of industry-leading 24nm MLC
- Cost-effective eMLC NAND technology
- MLC SATA drive with high read and write performance to fulfillclient needs in the enterprise space
- High endurance to withstand applications with moderate read-write workloads
- Enterprise data path protection
- Energy saving with as little as 2.8 watt to 4.6 watt power consumption per drive
- Absence of moving parts reduces potential failure points in the server.
The IBM 100 GB 1.8-inch and 2.5-inch solid-state drives (SSD) provide high-performance, reliable solutions for high-capacity enterprise applications with a moderate read and write mix by employing a 6 GBps SATA interface and MLC NAND technology. These solid-state drives present an opportunity to simplify your local storage infrastructure to help maintain overall maintenance and cooling cost, while considering remote storage solutions for end-to-end data availability.
Benefits include:
- 1.8-inch and 2.5-inch form factors fit into a conventional disk-drive bay
- 1.8-inch form factor fits into an eXFlash backplane
- 100 GB capacity to accommodate loading applications along with OS booting
- Cost-effective eMLC NAND technology with high read and write performance
- Energy saving with as little as 2.8 watt to 4.6 watt power consumption per drive
- Enterprise data protection to ensure NAND integrity
- Rigorous testing through the ServerProven program to help ensure your storage subsystem's compatibility and reliability.
- One-year limited warranty, or system warranty
