High performance SDDs don’t have to cost the earth

Nexenta has claimed a record level of storage performance for solid state drives (SSDs) along with reseller EraStor.

The EraStor 25S all SSD appliance uses 24 STEC SDDs to reach 253,469 sustained write IOPS at low latency.  This means sustaining 2.8GBps throughput with less than 2ms of latency.

The 35S appliance is available with 4.5TB raw capacity, scaling up to 17.6TB of performance storage.

The NexentaStor service also allows the ability to unify SDD, disk and hybrid use cases in one scalable system, in order to move towards all SSD storage at a manageable pace.

“We believe that our mission to provide enterprise-class storage extends to delivering high- performance SSD-based solutions,” said Evan Powell, Nexenta CEO.

“This result shows that striking a balance between high performance and low cost is not only possible, but readily achievable by all types and sizes of customers by using best-of-class SSDs.
