POSTER:computer news || MICRON SSD 3 TIME FASTER THAN INTEL X25- E
DATE:2008-11-30
This week we already had the capability to estimate the performance of Intel X25- E SSD. Those SSD are faster than classical hard disks.
We note that those SSD are intended for the servers market, where the disk speed is very important. According to this index SSD exceed HDD by ten and hundreds of times. In this case it is worthwhile to focus attention on this graph, where they measured the number of reading operations per second:
Thus, Micron technology developers achieved a performance level considerably exceeding Intel X25- E . Micron technology use on its creation two chips, each has a sixteen-channel memory controller . Intel SSD in this case are equipped only with ten controller channel . The demonstrated Micron SSD speeds reach 800 Mbytes per second for reading operations and 540 Mbytes per second for record operations .
The number of produced by disk operations input/output reaches 200 000. For comparison, Intel X25- E has 250mb/s and 170 Mb/s, and the number of input/output operations reaches only 35000 IOPS. It is worthwhile to note that the productivity of this SSD proportionally grew with the increase in the channels number relative to SSD from Intel production .
The reading speed demonstrated BY X25- E is about 250 Mbytes per second with the ten-channel controller( about 25 Mbytes per second per channel ). SSD from Micron use 32 channels in order to reach 800 Mb per second, which correspond to the same 25 Mbytes per second per channel.
Micron SSD use the interface PCI-Express 4x, instead of SATA, which ensures the maximum capacity 1000 Mbytes per second, with the use of all four lines.Furthermore, this solution is completely justified since SATA is limited to 300 MB/s.
In this photograph two prototype are installed, it is possible to note that both are equipped with additional power. Obviously, 75 watts from the PCI-Express are insufficient.
Actually, each disk uses a active cooling, which consists on two fans, which cool the pair of sixteen-channel controllers .
In the following photograph, the dimensions of Micron SSD are demonstrated.
The appearance of SSD prototype from Micron technology and its characteristics can be considered as final.
