DDRdrive hits the ground running - PCI-E RAM-based SSD

[news 28]

Today, previously unknown DDRdrive LLC released its flagship product, the

DDRdrive X1. We burned through the weekend to provide a first peek on

release day. Read on to see how the X1 fares against the ioDrive 160 and an

Intel X25-M. If results like "nearly 300k IOs per second" interest you, I

think this article will be worth a look!

Quote: "The DDRdrive was purpose built for pure unadulterated random IO, and

from what I have seen, it absolutely delivers. The only thing holding it

back from decimating the competition is the single channel PCI-E bandwidth.

Enterprise environments requiring hugely random yet persistent storage (i.e.

database transaction logs), may benefit from the X1, provided the storage

space is sufficient and their IOPS requirements fall within the X1's

respective sweet spots."

 

Thanks for a post!
