The new IBM S3700 solid-state drives provide a high-performance, reliable solution for high-capacity enterprise applications with a moderate read-write mix by employing a 6 Gbps SATA interface and cost-effective multilevel cell (MLC) NAND technology. These drives present an opportunity to simplify local storage infrastructure and 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 that fit into conventional disk-drive bays
- 200 GB, 400 GB, and 800 GB capacities to accommodate loading applications along with operating system booting
- Cost-effective MLC NAND technology with high read and write performance
- High Endurance Technology (HET) for delivering single-level cell (SLC) endurance similar to that of solid-state drives (SSDs) in an MLC SSD package to achieve 10 drive writes per day (DWPD) for five years
- Enterprise data protection to ensure NAND integrity
- Rigorous testing through the ServerProven program, which instills confidence that your storage subsystem is compatible and will function reliably
- One-year limited warranty, or system warranty
