Title: SanDisk to Speed Up Solid State Drives by Up To 100 Times Post by: Alex on November 06, 2008, 05:19:52 PM SanDisk to Speed Up Solid State Drives by Up To 100 Times
During the WinHEC 2008 conference in Los Angeles, California, SanDisk unveiled its proprietary technology that boosts write speed of solid state drives (SSDs) by up to 100 times, which will automatically accelerate overall performance dramatically. In addition, the supplier of flash products proposed the industry to implement new metrics that would measure SSD’s performance and reliability.Speaking in Los Angeles at WinHEC 2008, Rich Heye, senior vice president and general manager for SanDisk’s SSD business unit, presented ExtremeFFS technology along with two metrics – virtual RPM (vRTM) and long-term data endurance LDE (LDE) – that can help end-users evaluate SSDs.“SSDs will revolutionize client storage, but we need new benchmarks that allow them to be treated differently than HDDs,” said Mr. Heye.
