- editor mentions on StorageSearch.com profile
- editor's comments:- February 2011 - as you can see from this
archived
datasheet (pdf) - Gnutek's 3.5" flash SSDs had 18,000
write IOPS
and 52,000 read IOPS - which was a very good figure in 2006 and would still be a
respectable performance today.
I first heard about the company in
September 2005 when the SSD's designer Simon Haynes
contacted me about advertising and free listings about their upcoming Maracite
SSD in our SSD directory.
It didn't take long for Gnutek to get noticed.
