Looking at the SATA SSD Market

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.

The single big idea about SSD acceleration is that it can give you the same performance increase as doubling or trebling your processor clock speed!

In datacenters that means faster applications and budget saving by deploying less enterprise servers. In notebooks it means better performance and longer unplugged.. ...SSD Market Adoption model
