# Seagate & Newisys Demonstrate Flash Storage Architecture Capable Of 1TB/s

by Adam Armstrong on December 1, 2015

Today Seagate Technology and Newisys, a division of Sanmina Corporation, announced that they have broken the 1TB/s threshold in a single rack. The two companies announced that 21 Newisys NSS-2601 with dual NSS-HWxEA Storage Server Modules deployed with Seagate’s newest SAS 1200.2 SSD drives can be combined in a single 42U rack to achieve block I/O performance of 1TB/s with 5PB of storage. This marks the industry’s fastest flash storage design. Each individual 2U Newisys supports up to 60 Seagate SSDs and has a bandwidth up to 49GB/s.

Some applications need super high speeds and microsecond difference matter when processing massive amounts of data. These new flash speeds would be invaluable in industries using high-performance computing (HPC) including metadata caches for large data centers, as well as prediction models for financial markets, oil and gas, and weather.

As stated above the Newisys NSS-2601 is a 2U enclosure that can support up to 60 2.5” SAS drives and two NSS-HWxEA Storage Server Modules. These Server Modules are high-performance, high-availability, and high density while covering a broad spectrum of cost-performance requirements. The server modules can be configured as either single or dual socket and support the Intel E5-2600 v3/4 family of Xeon processors and they enable 32 12Gb/s SAS lanes each. The enclosures support the 12Gb/s data path completely through to the end devices.

The [Seagate 1200.2 SAS SSD](https://www.storagereview.com/seagate_announces_new_enterprise_sas_ssd_with_speeds_of_1800mb_s) is an SSD developed through their collaboration with Micron. The new drive comes in a variety of capacities up to 3.84TB, with several different endurance models, and multiple encryption models. Seagate and micron state that the drive can have a throughput of 1900MB/s for sequential reads.
