Viking Technology announced a compact server SSD 50 TB
Viking Technology, a division of Sanmina Corporation, has introduced the most capacious of its kind SSD with the capacity of 50 TB series UHC-Silo SSD. It is made in 3.5-inch form factor with a standard SAS interface and is designed for use in data centers. In addition to the high capacity of the new drive has a low energy consumption. When idle, it consumes up to 10 watts, and during active work — 16w. This can significantly increase the total storage capacity per rack while reducing power per terabyte. With these storage companies can save up to 80% space and energy.
“Some system administrators looking for a way to extend the life of existing equipment, since it can function well, but have too little volume. With the solid state drives ultra-high-capacity not only can they go beyond the capacity of enterprise hard drives, but also to improve performance without having to replace the entire system by introducing a simple replacement disks,” said Jim Hanji from research firm Objective Analysis.
The new drive uses a chip SK Hynix MLC (2 bits/cell) is more advanced and fast 3D TLC NAND (3 bits/cell). Speed sequential read and write up to 500 and 350 MB/s respectively, which is not too impressive, as for the interface NVMe today speeds above 1 Gbit/s are already considered the norm. But Viking Technology focus on the longevity of the drives. The daily record they are able to work up to 5 years.
“Today there is no more powerful SSD solution than SSH UHC-Silo. These disks allow administrators of data centers easily switch to SSD performance and significantly increase throughput. Since the space and cooling are critical parameters for modern data centers, these benefits are changing the rules of the game,” said Hamid Sekhose, President of Viking Technology.
About the cost of new drives is not reported.
