SATA SSDs have long been used in data centers & cloud storage. But as capacity needs grow along with the necessity to access data with minimal latency, the adequacy of the interface bandwidth between the host & the drive comes under scrutiny. With no announced evolution of the SATA standard beyond SATA 3.x (6 Gbps), the use of SATA SSDs in the cloud has reached performance limits. While capacity & bandwidth can be scaled by supplementing more SATA drives, they will come at the cost of increased floor space & lower PUE (Power Usage Effectiveness). The sprawling effect of SATA SSDs can be mitigated by the use of Ultrastar DC SN620 NVMe-compliant SSDs. By delivering 3x the bandwidth of enterprise SATA SSDs, like Cloud Speed Gen. II SATA SSDs from the San Disk br&, Ultrastar DC SN620 SSDs can yield server consolidation benefits as much as 3:1. ...

Data is transforming the world & growing at an exponential pace. The SAS interface continues its dominance in traditional enterprise storage arrays, making the ever-increasing volume of data rapidly & reliably available. Storage solutions depend on SAS's protection features, such as dual-port failover for redundancy, & SAS's high reliability to power mission-critical applications such as ERP, OLTP, OLAP, & more. The Ultrastar DC SS530 SAS SSD is designed with a dual port 12 GB/s SAS interface for seamless integration into enterprise environments. Delivering performance up to 440, 000 random read & 320, 000 random write IOPS
- best in class among current 12 Gb/s SAS SSDs
