Texas Memory System delivers 5 TB flash solid state disk
Texas Memory Systems' new RamSan-620 flash solid-state disk (SSD) claims to deliver up to 5 TB of storage in a single-2U chassis while using less power than hard disks.
A single RamSan-620 unit offers up to 5TB of single-level cell (SLC) Flash, making it the highest capacity SLC Flash SSD on the market, according to Texas Memory. The flash device also offers 250,000 sustained IOPS for random reads and random writes, and throughput is 3 GB per second. Latency is low, at 80 microseconds for writes - 60 times less than high-performance hard disks-- and it draws only 325 W of power, the company reported.
No price information was available.
