- editor's rolling comments:- on HP's Unfolding SSD strategy...
On
a
historical
note - HP was the 1st company to offer solid state storage as a standard
option in consumer notebooks - back in 1993 - for the HP Omnibook 300. But
don't expect HP today to be a leader in this market. I expect - it will choose
a safe route - and will follow rather than lead SSD trends.
To be more
accurate - that 1993 flash
memory based product wasn't really a true "SSD" as
we use the term today - because it didn't include
wear-leveling.
In
March 2009 - Fusion-io
announced an oem deal with HP
whose new PCIe based
StorageWorks
IO Accelerator for for HP BladeSystem c-Class servers is based on
Fusion's ioMemory SSD technology. A low level formatting tool for the HP SSD
enables users to choose what level of
over-provisioning is
used - as a performance
tweaking option. |

SSD................ |
In 2016 there will be
just 3 types of
SSD in the datacenter.
One
of them doesn't exist yet - the bulk storage SSD.
It will replace the
last remaining strongholds of
hard drives in the
datacenter due to its unique combination of characteristics, low running costs
and operational advantages. |

The new model of the
datacenter - how we get from here to there - and the technical problems which
will need to be solved - are just some of the ideas explored in this
visionary article. | | | |
