OCZ Technology today unveiled the Indilinx Everest SATA 3.0 SSD
platform. The Everest platform features support of 6Gbps interface
speeds, high transactional performance that is optimized for
compressed files, and capacities up to 1TB.
The new Indilinx Everest platform supports Multi-Level Cell (MLC)
NAND components and next generation three bit per cell NAND Flash.
The ability to leverage Triple-Level Cell (TLC) NAND Flash with
proprietary Everest and Indilinx Ndurance Technology provides SSD
makers cost reductions associated with moving to the new process.
The platform features a controller that supports 200 mega transfers
per second (MT/s) synchronous-mode flash, up over the 166 MT/s
supported by other NAND Flash controllers. Everest supports 1TB
capacities in a single controller SSD design with current generation
Flash components. Its eight channel design with up to 16-way
interleaving ensures performance, while the full data path and power
fail protection delivers data integrity and reliability.
Everest's design delivers sequential speeds up to 500MB/s and is
optimized for small file writes at the 8K file size with next
generation page mapping technology, which increases transactional
performance optimized for 4K to 16K compressed files, by matching
file sizes to the 8K page size typical in newer generation NAND
Flash.
Indilinx's new boot time reduction algorithms can be configured to
decrease system boot time by up to 50% over existing SSD controller
architectures.
