the top 20 SSD
companies............................. |
Editor:- April 13, 2011 -
StorageSearch.com recently
published the 16th quarterly edition of the top 20 SSD companies
- based on reader search volume in the
1st quarter of
2011.
With new commentaries for each listed company it's a useful
intro to the SSD companies who will dominate market trends in the coming
years.
StorageSearch currently tracks over 300 SSD companies - which is
6x more than when this series started - and 30x more than when
we started publishing real-time updated SSD vendor lists here in 1998.
It's
natural to just look at the companies in the list - but you can learn more
about how the market has changed by looking at the products which readers are
searching for too. |

Back in
2007 - when
these quarterly lists started - 7 out of the top 10 companies sold
2.5" SSDs. Now
in this new edition
- 8 out of the top 10 companies sell SSDs which are compatible with
PCIe. | | | |
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. |
