- Editor's comments:- March 2011 - as you know my main interest is in
trying to work out where companies fit in the SSD market and the long term
transition to solid state storage.
Hiren R. Patel the
founder of IntelliProp told me - "I don’t think we fit into the
category of SSD manufacturers,
nor do we fit into SSD
controllers, but we offer a
SATA to SATA
RAID (level 0, striping) bridge."
This bridge allows SSD
manufacturers to connect several smaller SSDs (250GB, for example) into a larger
drive (like 1 or 2 TB SSD drive). It makes 2, 4 or 8 drives look and feel like
one single SSD drive. Another benefit is the increased performance and since
we are 6GHz SATA compliant, we saturate the interface throughput. Some of our
customers are already listed as SSD manufacturers on your website. We plan to
have a SAS RAID bridge available soon as well." |

| SSD power down
management |
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. |
