With the number of
SSD manufacturers in the
market now approaching 100 - I thought it was time to create a
separate listing of SSD oems
who offer native
SATA interfaces.
There are over 30 manufacturers of SATA SSDs listed here and
new ones being added weekly.
SATA SSDs are the most popular product
ads and editorial subjects viewed by our readers in the past few quarters. This
reflects the wide range of applications for SATA SSDs which spans from
notebooks, and DAS server storage right upto datacenter accelerators integrated
into SSD RAID systems.
The rise to dominance of the SSD market by SATA
devices is chronicled below.
In 2004 - when storagesearch.com
conducted the industry's first
SSD Buyer Preferences
Survey 53% said that SATA compatible SSDs would suit their
applications best. At that time there were no SATA SSDs in the market.
SSD oems took heed of these results and by the end of 2005 there
were 4 SSD manufacturers offering SATA.
This had grown to 11 at the
end of 2006 and rapidly accelerated in the following years to 30+ companies by
the end of 2008.
Looking ahead at the
Flash SSD Performance
Roadmap
Indilinx and
MOSAID Technologies say
they are working on a 600MB/s SATA-3 SSD controller design. So users can expect
to see even more innovation in this part of the SSD market. |
