Optimus SSD - The Faster, Larger, Better Replacement To Your Slow Hard Drives
Want to know what is better than a 1.6TB memory drive? It is the fact that it can read at a speed of 1GB/sec for any data type through out its life. And Smart Modular Technologies have come up with just one such drive. All this awesomeness is packed into a 2.5 inch form. The estimated writing speed is 500 MB/sec and apart from the news making 1TB form, smaller ones with a memory of 200GB, 400GB and 800GB are also available. Optimus was developed using SMART's extensive experience in flash technology, SAS firmware, and enterprise storage.
#-Link-Snipped-#The Optimus Solid State Drive (SSD) is meant for Enterprise storage applications and promises to be fail-safe with an added range of technologies, including Flash Guard, Drive Guard, and Ever Guard (the entire set is called Guardian technologies) , to ensure the safety of your data and the longevity of the drive. Optimus is the industry's highest capacity and fastest SAS multi-level cell (MLC) SSD. It involves a native Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) 6 GB/s interface that gives the above mentioned speeds. Optimus caters to the needs of the industry with a high performance, reliability and endurance, and a cost effective combination. SMART claims to be perfectly poised to satisfy the arising needs.
The confidence that SMART Technologies has in its product is at its peak and is reflected by the 5 year warranty they offer. A part of the confidence comes from the use of previously mentioned Guard Technologies. The Flash Guard technology provides industry leading flash management capabilities thus making it capable of bearing the enterprise storage workloads thus guaranteeing you the 5 year warranty period. Drive Guard and Ever Guard make sure no compromise is made when it comes to data integrity and drive reliability.
The cost of Optimus has not been released yet. The press release states that the drive is going to be cost effective. But the feel in the industry is that it might cost you higher than the laptop in which you plan to put it in and make the common people loyal to their slower drives!
