  • editor's comments:- in March 2009 - Dolphin launched the StorExpress a rackmount SLC flash SSD with upto 960GB capacity. The PCIe connected SSD has R/W throughput upto 2,700MB/s and 50 microsecond access latency. Dolphin quotes a figure of 270,000 IOPS but the initial datasheet doesn't break out IOPS figures for reads and writes. The StorExpress can be located upto 10m from the host bus using copper cable and 300m with optical fibre.

    In April 2009 - MAGMA and Dolphin jointly announced they have collaborated to develop an improved version of the latter's previously announced 2U StorExpress PCIe SSD product line, which will ship next month. Capacity options include 0.5TB (under $20K), 1TB and 2TB. It achieves 270K read and write IOPs (512 bytes to 4KB blocks) and up to 2.8GB/s of sustained bandwidth. Latency is less than 50µS. The StorExpress enclosure can be positioned 1,000 feet away from the host server using fiber.

    In May 2009 - Dolphin's CEO, Tim Miller shares his SSD Bookmarks with readers of StorageSearch.com.
