Texas Memory Systems RamSan-620 The RamSan-620 2U solid state disk is special because its price point (self-service price quote) is significantly lower than other enterprise SSDs. It's available in capacities up to 5 terabytes and it can sustain 250,000 I/Os per second. Using hard disks to achieve that performance would require 500 of the fastest drives in 36 enclosures, 22X the electricity and the system could cost upwards of $500,000.

The RamSan-620 is a rack-mounted SLC NAND Flash SSD that provides plenty of shareable, high performance storage for IT organizations that need to respond to the growing storage and performance needs of their users and applications. It is a greener, more efficient alternative to hard disk drive-based systems. The RamSan-620 has extremely low latency and delivers 250,000 IOPS of sustained performance, compared to the 300 IOPS that a high end mechanical disk drive can achieve.

SLC Flash and innovative controller designs give the RamSan-620 enterprise reliability and data protection. With capacity options of 2 - 5TB in a 2U enclosure that uses only 325 Watts, the RamSan-620 can handle data growth very efficiently. It installs quickly and easily and is managed in the same way as our other RamSan systems, integrating seamlessly into almost any SAN environment using Fibre Channel or InfiniBand connectivity. The RamSan-620 is extremely versatile and especially well suited for performance-demanding applications such as data warehouses, online transaction processing, batch processing, and video editing.

Flash has enabled TMS to deliver high performance storage solutions to a much broader customer base. For over 30 years we have been at the forefront of storage performance and application acceleration for enterprises. With this 15th generation RamSan-620 we are combining expertise and technology to solve challenging problems of performance and efficiency in enterprises of all types and sizes.
