The company introduced the first SandForce processor for SSD-drives designed to run on cloud computing. Cloud systems have specific requirements for performance and reliability, SSD, and SF-2481 chip is aimed at meeting these needs by using MLC NAND-memory.
The new processor technology is implemented DuraWrite, which provides the highest balanced performance in the industry and the most effective cleanup. Speed ​​sequential read / write operations up to 500 MB / s and a maximum capacity of random operations of 60,000 IOPS. It is also noted automatic double encryption algorithm AES.
