Intel Introduces Solid-state drives for notebook and desktop computers
New Intel (R) High-Performance SATA Solid State Drive offers users Responsive, rugged, reliable and Low-Power Storage Solution to replace a hard disk
Santa Clara, Calif. - (BUSINESS WIRE) - September 8, 2008 Intel Corporation today announced it has begun shipping Intel (R) X18-M and X25-M Mainstream SATA Solid-State Drives (SSDs) based on multi-level cell (MLC) NAND flash technology for laptop and desktop computers. The new high-performing storage devices give computer buyers a new level of responsiveness of the system in a lightweight, rugged, low-power package that href = "http://install-how.blogspot.com/2010/05/intel-80gb-solid-state-drives-ssd-get.html"> can replace the traditional hard drives.
Validated for Intel-based computers, the X18-M is a 1.8-inch drive and the X25-M a 2.5-inch drive, offering several advantages over hard drives including faster overall system response, boot and resume times. With no moving parts, SSDs run cooler and quieter and more reliable have an option than hard drives. In addition, SSDs remove input / output (I / O) performance bottlenecks associated with hard disk drives that help maximize the efficiency of the Intel processors, including Core (TM) family of products. For example, lab tests show that the Intel X18-M and X25M storage system performance nine times over traditional hard disk performance.
"Validated by our rigorous testing and OEM customer feedback, we believe that we have an SSD that delivers the promises of SSD computing development, "said Randy Wilhelm, Intel vice president and general manager of the NAND Products Group." By combining our experience in flash memory design with our processor and computing expertise, we have added advances such as our parallel 10-channel architecture, proprietary controller, firmware and memory management algorithms that address write amplification and wear leveling issues SSD performance and reliability for computing platforms redefine. "
The Intel X18-M and X25-M SATA Mainstream SSDs are available in 80 gigabyte (GB) capacities, with 160GB versions sampling in the fourth quarter of this year. The 80GB drive reaches up to 250MB per second read speed to 70 MB per second and write speeds of 85 microsecond read latency for fast performance. The 80GB version is priced at $ 595 for quantities up to 1,000. These SSDs are now availability and end-customer products containing the Intel (R) High-Performance SATA SSDs are expected to be shipping in the coming weeks.
The company is also expected a line of single-level to introduce cell (SLC) SSDs for the server, storage and enterprise environments within the next 90 days. The Intel (R)-X25 EExtreme SATA Solid-State Drive, these products are designed to maximize the the Input / Output Operations Per Second (IOPS), which equates to higher performance and lower costs for businesses. Since SSDs lower energy consumption, maintenance, cooling and space costs, an SSD-based data center will reduce overall infrastructure costs while increasing performance-per-square-foot with up to 50x.
The giant has semiconductor company made its debut in the SSD market with a 80GB SSD, which is priced at a relatively expensive $ 595. This new model will come in 1.8 "or 2.5" sizes that are indicated by the X18-M and X25-M model names.
The SSD world, where actual real-world performance to differ materially from what is said (take everyone upset about the MacBook Air SSD, for example). Intel SATA disk to 250MB / s read and 70MB / s writes, with 85-microsecond latency
