2 TB PCIe Solid State Hard Drive!

Posted by FreshCare Support

While researching hardware for a customer who required a very fast and very large storage solution i came across this AMAZING product from Intel. The .

Its 2 TB in size (Which is 2048 GB or 2,097,152 MB)That’s bigger than the conventional hard drives in the average Computer. But what really so incredible about it, is the speed. Its up to 6 times faster then Standard Solid States drives which is already 3 times faster than a traditional spindle type Hard Drive. WOW thats quick!

The best bit is you can contact your friendly Fresh Team to get your very own!!

Below is a brief from Intel’s Data Sheet on the Intel PCIe Solid State Hard Drive

The Intel® Solid-State Drive (SSD) Data Center Family for PCIe* brings extreme data throughput directly to Intel® Xeon® processors with up to six times faster data transfer speed than 6 Gbps SAS/SATA SSDs

The Intel SSD DC Family for PCIe* is capable of reading data up to 2.8GB/s and 460k Input/Output Operations Per Second (IOPS) and writing up to 2.0GB/s and 175k IOPS. The performance of a single drive from the Intel SSD DC Family for PCIe*, specifically the Intel® Solid-State Drive Data Center P3700 Series (460K IOPS), can replace the performance of 7 SATA SSDs aggregated through an HBA (~500K IOPS). At 200 IOPS per Hard Disk Drive (HDD), 2,300 15K HDDs would be needed to match the performance of one Intel SSD DC Family for PCIe* device. Intel SSD DC Family for PCIe’s* consistently amazing performance provides fast, unwavering data streams directly to Intel Xeon processors making server data transfers efficient. SSD performance consistency provides scalable throughput when multiple SSDs are unified into a single storage volume. The massive storage bandwidth increase feeds Intel Xeon processor systems giving data center servers a performance boost. Servers can now support more users simultaneously, compute on larger data sets, and address high-performance computing at lower Total Cost of Ownership (TCO).
