Intel announced a new SATA interface enterprise solidstatedrive (SSD) that uses 25 nm multi-level cell flash memory (this is 2 bit per cell technology referred to as MLC).
Intended to support both the enterprise and rugged markets, these products are expected to deliver more than 400, 000 random write transactions per second, scale up to more than 5TB of pure solidstate storage capacity, ensure enterprise-class drive life endurance, and offered in SAS, SATA, Fibre Channel, and PCIe interfaces.
