BUILT IN - ARTICLE INTRO SECOND COMPONENT

En décembre 2021, Solidigm [www.solidigmtechnology.com], a subsidiary of SK hynix, a acquis l'activité NAND  d'Intel Corporation, y compris les produits SSD NAND Intel®. Les anciens matériaux Intel seront fournis jusqu'à la fin de la transition.

Designed to meet today’s increasingly demanding service levels and support broader cloud workloads, while reducing storage costs.

Built from the success of its cloud-inspired predecessor – the Intel® SSD DC P4600 Series – and architected with 64-layer TLC Intel® 3D NAND Technology, the Intel® SSD DC P4610 Series delivers performance, quality of service (QoS), and capacity improvements to further optimize storage efficiency, enabling data centers to do more per server, minimize service disruptions, and efficiently manage at scale.

Built on NVMe* specification 1.2, these PCIe* SSDs are available in 1.6TB, 3.2TB, 6.4TB, and 7.68TB in the U.2 2.5” (15mm) form factor.

An SSD Built for Cloud Storage Architectures
Multi-Cloud has become a core element for any enterprise strategy, and top cloud providers have responded by openly embracing PCIe*/NVMe*-based SSDs with scalable performance, low latency, and continued innovation.

As software-defined and converged infrastructures are swiftly adopted, the need increases to maximize efficiency, revitalize existing hardware, deploy new workloads, and yet reduce operational expenditures.

The SSD DC P4610 Series meets these requirements. It significantly increases server agility and utilization, and accelerates applications across a wide range of cloud workloads.

Do More Per Server
Intel’s 64-layer TLC 3D NAND technology enables the DC P4610 to increase available capacity up to 20% more compared to its immediate predecessor, the Intel® SSD DC P4600.1 This increased density is the key to supporting broader workloads, allowing cloud and enterprise service providers to increase users, and improve data service levels. Better QoS is ensured with an intelligent firmware algorithm that keeps host and background data reads and writes at an optimum balance.

With the DC P4610, host applications will not only have access to higher capacity, but will also be serviced at up to 35% faster write rate, up to 35% more endurance per drive, and up to 4x reduction of service time at a QoS metric of 99.99% availability for random access workload.2 3 4

With this level of workload ability and agility, data centers can refresh existing hardware and reduce operational expenditures.

Minimize Service Disruptions
To ensure telemetry information without disrupting ongoing I/Os, the DC P4610 includes enhanced SMART monitoring of drive health and status, using an in-band mechanism and out-of-band access. A power loss imminent (PLI) protection scheme – with a built-in self-test – guards against data loss if system power is suddenly cut.

Coupled with our industry-leading end-to-end data path protection scheme, PLI features enable ease of deployment into resilient data centers where data corruption from system-level glitches is not tolerated.5 The DC P4610 combines firmware enhancements with new 3D NAND features to prioritize host workload and ensure better service levels.

Efficiently Manage at Scale6
To help data centers make the most of increased SSD capacity per server, dynamic namespace management delivers the flexibility to enable more users and scale deployment. The DC P4610 also provides security features like TCG Opal* 2.0 and built-in AES-XTS 256-bit encryption engine, required by some secure platforms.

With the capability to manage multiple firmware versions on a drive and to support updates without a reset, the DC P4610 improves integration and increases the ease and efficiency of deploying at scale.

Choose the DC P4610 for Data Center Storage
With the increased density of 64-layer Intel® 3D NAND and enhanced firmware features, the DC P4610 is built to handle mixed workloads and beyond. The DC P4610 creates greater quality of service, bandwidth, and performance, leading data centers through their evolving transformation.1 2 3

Par la protection des données de bout en bout, on entend l'ensemble des méthodes utilisées pour détecter et corriger l'intégrité des données sur tout le chemin d'accès tel qu'il est lu ou écrit entre l'hôte et le support et le contrôleur de l'unité de stockage SSD. Nous basons nos affirmations sur la moyenne des taux d'erreurs d'Intel par rapport à la moyenne des taux d'erreurs des unités de stockage des concurrents. Nous utilisons la radiation neutronique pour définir les taux de corruption invisible des données et pour mesurer l'efficacité générale de la protection des données de bout en bout. Les erreurs invisibles ont été mesurées en runtime et après le redémarrage, après qu'une unité de stockage soit restée « suspendue », en comparant les données attendues aux données réelles renvoyées par l'unité de stockage. Le taux annuel de corruption de données a été projeté à partir du taux constaté pendant le test accéléré, divisé par l'accélération du rayon (voir la norme JESD89A du JEDEC). Les performances sont basées sur les tests réalisés en mai 2019 et peuvent ne pas refléter toutes les mises à jour de sécurité disponibles.
