Are Flash Solid-State Disk Drives Ready for the Enterprise?

BiTMICRO's aggressive product development will also reflect on its 2U rack mount Flash-SSDs, providing impressive throughput for enterprise class applications. Engineering trends strongly indicate the possibility of packing at least 24 (double than current drive densities) 2.5-inch drives by the year 2007, with performance expected again to increase at least threefold in 2008 as the 2nd generation SAS (6 Gbits/sec) SSDs are utilized. Sustained R/W rates for 2U rack mount systems are expected to improve by a factor of 30, reaching 20 GBytes/sec in 2008. Likewise, random IOPS performance is projected to ramp up drastically, rising from 110,000 in 2004 to 2,000,000 in 2008.
