Editor's notes:-
June 2012 - Biwin
only came to my attention recently when it started Biwin America, Inc. in March
2012.
The company uses a variety of controllers including
SandForce and
JMicron.
For
competing suppliers take a look at these directories:-
tiny SSDs,
1.8" SSDs,
2.5" SSDs,
SATA SSDs,
notebook SSDs
and PCIe SSDs. |

In May 2012 -
Biwin launched a range of
SF driven 2.5" enterprise SSDs under the
NuvoDrive
PX brand - that support up to 85,000 random write IOPS and features data
loss protection in the event of
sudden power
failure. These use synchronous MLC NAND flash as a storage medium, and can
also be built to order with eMLC or SLC NAND.
In June 2012 -
Biwin showed a (slow)
prototype
PCIe SSD at Computex 2012 -
signalling its intention to ship marketable PCIe SSD products soon. |

| Surviving SSD
sudden power loss |
Why should you care
what happens in an SSD when the power goes down?
This important design
feature - which barely rates a mention in most SSD datasheets and press releases
- has a strong impact on
SSD data integrity
and operational
reliability.
This article will help you understand why some
SSDs which (work perfectly well in one type of application) might fail in
others... even when the changes in the operational environment appear to be
negligible. |
