As the business’s first 24G SAS storage primarily based on 100+ layer vertical NAND, the PM1653 will present most pace and capability to successfully deal with AI and massive information workloads in enterprise servers
Samsung Electronics, the world chief in superior reminiscence know-how, at present introduced its launch of the business’s highest performing 24G SAS (SAS-4) SSD ― the PM1653. Based on the newest SAS interface, the brand new drive can help twice the pace of the earlier 12G SAS-Three era. The PM1653 can also be the business’s first 24G SAS SSD made with sixth-generation (1xx-layer) V-NAND chips, enabling storage capacities from 800GB to 30.72TB for superior enterprise server methods.
“As the leading provider of SAS storage for a decade, Samsung has been offering the most advanced and reliable enterprise solutions in full support of the critical workloads of global server OEMs, governments and financial institutions. Samsung enterprise solutions are also accredited by the U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology for the most powerful data security,” stated Kwangil Park, senior vice chairman of the Memory Product Planning Team at Samsung Electronics. “Like we have done with the PM1653, Samsung will continue to collaborate with our customers to accommodate the ever-growing demand of the enterprise server market for the most uncompromising offerings available.”
In order to construct a strong 24G SAS ecosystem throughout the enterprise market, host bus adapter (HBA) system readiness can also be important. Samsung has been intently working with Broadcom, a number one HBA supplier, to make sure a seamless and well timed transition to this new SAS milestone.
“Broadcom values the innovation that 24G SAS products, such as the Samsung SSD PM1653, will bring to the enterprise server market,” stated Jas Tremblay, vice chairman and basic supervisor of the Data Center Solutions Group at Broadcom. “The combination of the PM1653 SSD and Broadcom’s next-generation SAS RAID products delivers up to 5X RAID 5 performance; which will be critical to meet the strong demands of the 24G ecosystem.”
The PM1653 has been optimized for high-performance enterprise servers, providing the business’s highest random learn pace – a key metric for server storage efficiency – of as much as 800Ok IOPS. Its sequential learn pace can attain 4,300MB/s, which is the utmost out there pace for the 24G SAS interface and twice the pace of the previous-generation PM1643a drive.
Leveraging its dual-port system, the brand new SSD will give enterprise server OEMs the flexibleness of utilizing one or each ports relying on their system setting. Even if one port was to expertise a failure throughout operation, information will be transferred and accessed by the opposite port with superior enterprise-grade reliability. The PM1653 is able to supporting 24G and the legacy 12G SAS-Three platform as effectively.
Samsung has begun sampling the PM1653 SSD with choose clients, and plans to start mass manufacturing within the second half of this 12 months.
