The X25-E Extreme SATA Solid-State drives are designed to maximise the number of input/output operations performed per second. According to company officials, this will deliver higher performance and lower energy consumption, maintenance, cooling and space costs. "[A]n SSD-based data centre will reduce overall infrastructure costs while increasing performance-per-square-foot by as much as 50x," they claimed. Single-level cell technology stores one bit in each memory cell. Although manufacturing costs are relatively high, it delivers faster transfer speeds and reduces power consumption. Furthermore, it increases the number of times that data can be successfully written to any given cell. |
