Today Memblaze Technology Co., Ltd. launched its next generation of PCIe SSD Series with comprehensive support for the NVMe 1.1 standard and PCIe 3.0 interface, the PBlaze4 700 Series. First announced back in December of 2014, the new PBlaze4 700 Series is based on PMC’s Flashtec NVMe controllers and is designed to provide a high-performance and high-reliability SSD for hyperscale data centers and enterprise clients.
With Big Data growing by the day, the need for enterprise-class SSDs grows with it. According to IDC, in 2017 the total available market for enterprise-class SSDs will climb to $1.6 billion, where the attach-rate of cloud data centers will be more than 90%. IDC also predicts that PCIe interface will account for 53% of the market gradually overtaking SATA/SAS as the main SSD interface.
The new PBlaze4 700 Series comes in capacities ranging from 800GB to 3.2TB in both 2.5” and add-in card form factor. There is also the new C900, which is a full-height, half-length add-in card with 6.4TB of capacity. Memblaze makes performance claims of up to 4.0GB/s for read bandwidth and 2.5GB/s for write bandwidth, and 800K IOPS for random read and 250K IOPS for random write.
Along with the new drives, Memblaze upgraded its core technologies to version 2.0, including MemSpeed and MemSolid. MemSpeed 2.0 contains FTL, write cache, hardware multi-Q, multi-core and Adaptive Smooth Technology to ensure the maximum release of flash performance edges. MemSolid2.0 contains data protection technologies such, as strong BCH ECC, Enhanced Power Failure Protection, RAIN, Randomize, pSLC and Fast Recovery guaranteeing high reliability and high availability.
