Are MLC SSDs Safe in Enterprise Apps?

This is a follow up article to the popular SSD Myths and Legends which, a year earlier demolished the myth that flash memory wear-out (a comfort blanket beloved by many RAM SSD makers) precluded the use of flash in heavy duty datacenters.

This new article looks at the risks posed by MLC Nand Flash SSDs which have recently hatched from their breeeding ground as chip modules in cellphones and morphed into hard disk form factors.

Can You Trust Your Flash SSD's Specs?

Editor:- I've noticed is that the published specs of flash SSDs change a lot -from the time a product they are first announced, then when they're being sampled, and later again when they are in volume production.

Sometimes the headline numbers get better, sometimes they get worse. There are many good reasons for this.

The product which you carefully qualified may not be identical to the one that's going into your production line for a variety of reasons... ...read the article

Z's Laws - Predicting Future Flash SSD Performance

A a reader asked me a very good question.

"Is there an industry roadmap for future flash SSD performance?"

That prompted other questions like...

How fast are flash SSDs going to be in 2009?, 2010? or 2012?

What are the technology factors which relate to flash SSD throughput and IOPS?

How close will flash SSDs get to RAM SSD performance?

There wasn't a simple answer I could give at the time. Clues lay scattered all across this web site and in my many one on one discussions with readers about the market...

But I agreed there should be a single place on the web where these answers could be found.

Forget Moore's Law. That gives you the wrong answer, and this article explains why. ...read the article

SPARC history see this SPARC oem page as it looked in years gone by. 1997, 1998, 1999, 2000, 2001, 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005

Manufacturers of SPARC compatible cards & systems Note about this list:- during the 1990s this directory included over 30 manufacturers of SPARC compatible systems, and nearly 200 manufacturers of proprietary Sun SBus compatible cards. Today, in Q308, there are only a handful of remaining OEMs which actively market SPARC platforms and the add in cards are industry standard PCI / cPCI / PCIe with Solaris drivers. We're working on culling and updating this list to filter out companies which have exited the market. But we will also add in and update Solaris supported peripherals.
