OCZ Technology today launched the Deneva 2 and Intrepid Series mSATA SSD lineup for OEMs.

These small form factor drives are designed for a wide range of embedded applications including slim servers, tablets, dual drive notebooks, and network security devices.

OCZ mSATA SSDs are small in size with no outer housing, making them an easy to deploy storage solution.

The mSATA industry-standard design combined with OCZ's firmware support provides high levels compatibility for simplified system integration, with proprietary caching software made available to OCZ's OEMs for data management appliances. OCZ Deneva 2 mSATA SSDs include key enterprise reliability features such as endurance (e.g., minimal write amplification, intelligent block management and wear-leveling), and advanced encryption and ECC. For maximum performance, the Deneva 2 mSATA series offers 6Gbps throughput rates with up to 80,000 random 4k write IOPS and 550MB/s of bandwidth. Likewise, the OCZ Intrepid mSATA Series features Indilinx Arowana Flash Translation Layer with Hyper-Queuing, resulting in increased sequential write speeds and IOPS. The Intrepid Series also maximizes the lifespan of low-endurance flash with Indilinx Ndurance Technology with wear-leveling algorithms for reduced write amplification and advanced over provisioning.

OCZ is currently sampling the Deneva 2 and Intrepid Series mSATA solid state drives to OEMs.
