ExaDrive DC100 SSD: Need more space on your PC? The new SSD Nimbus Data ExaDrive DC100 at 100TB may be for you.
Built into a 100D NAND flash, the ExaDrive DC3 gives you 100TB of storage on a standard 3,5-inch drive, meaning it can act as disc plug-and-play on an existing server.
But the largest capacity in the world is not the only extra of the ExaDrive DC100. It is also the most energy efficient SSD in the world, using just 0,1 W per TB, which makes the drive 80 to 90% better than anyone on the market.
This reduced power consumption translates into not only energy savings, but also cooling and rack space savings of up to 85 percent per terabyte compared to other companies' SSDs.
100TB capacity also means that a 3,5-inch drive can offer eight times the capacity of any current large hard drive.
In terms of durability, Nimbus Data offers a five-year warranty that covers unlimited DWPDs (Drive Writes Per Day), unlike two up to five DWPDs offered by other companies.
Performance now: the ExaDrive DC100 offers up to 100.000 IOPS random read and write up to 500 MBps. Although the random read speeds are slightly better than those offered by regular business SATA SSDs, the random write speeds are impressive.
According to Nimbus Data, this performance also helps improve processor performance by 50% or more.
The ExaDrive DC100 will be released on SATA and SAS.
At the moment we don't know her price of disk, but don't count on miracles.. Nimbus Data says the dollar per GB price will be comparable to existing MLC SSDs.
The ExaDrive DC100 will be available from the summer of 2018.
