The main solid-state disk enemies are the low longevity : the lifetime of MLC memory is measured by tens thousands of write cycles, SLC memory - hundreds of thousand write cycles. If for home application this still acceptable, then in the server solutions usually a higher longevity is required.
Micron company together with Sun Microsystems developed the solid-state memory (SLC) , which was capable of maintaining up to million of write cycles. Thus, on base of new SLC chips, produced on 34 NM technology, it is possible to create disks with the high longevity and performance. Sun plans to use them in its server solutions.
Currently, Micron supplies microcircuits models ( new memory type) with density up to 32 Gbit. Mass production will start in the first quarter of the following year. Related Products :
