Hitachi Global Storage Technologies (Hitachi GST), a leading
supplier of enterprise-class solid state and hard disk drives,
today announced that EMC® Corporation (NYSE:EMC) has qualified and
is now shipping Hitachi Ultrastar™ SSD400S SLC–based (single level
cell), 2.5-inch, SAS solid state drives (SSD) in its “all Flash”
VNX® Unified Storage systems for mission-critical Microsoft and
Oracle environments. The Ultrastar SSD400S family is the world’s
first jointly develop SAS and FC enterprise-class SSDs, combining
Hitachi GST’s proven enterprise HDD strength with Intel’s extensive
capabilities developing high-endurance SLC NAND flash memory and
advanced SSD technology. All of this powers Hitachi GST’s leading
line SSDs with high endurance, reliability and sustained
performance for Tier 0, mission-critical server and storage
workloads.

Pushing the limits of ultra high I/O performance, Hitachi
Ultrastar SSDs deliver the highest sequential throughput in the
market, reaching up to (535MB/s) read throughput with its 400GB 6Gb
SAS (single port) drive and 390MB/s throughput with 4Gb FC. The
Ultrastar SSD400S family also delivers up to 46,000 read and 21,000
sustained write IOPS, speeds 100 times faster than hard drives,
resulting in rapid response times for real-time transaction
processing access to “hot” enterprise data for improved
productivity and operational efficiency. As fewer SSDs are required
to achieve the same HDD ultra-high performance, the new Ultrastar
SSD400S family offers significant value in terms of IOPS per Watt,
while reducing total cost of ownership (TCO) through low power
consumption, efficient cooling and reduced space requirements.
The EMC VNX family delivers industry-leading innovation and
enterprise capabilities for file, block and object storage in a
scalable easy-to-use solution. Utilizing Hitachi Ultrastar SSDs,
EMC’s VNX5500-F system delivers 10X the performance and 80 percent
lower cost per TPM (transactions per minute) compared to an all-HDD
EMC VNX® system in Oracle OLTP environments. The EMC VNX5500-F is
also designed for five-9 availability (available 99.999% of the
time), a requirement for mission critical Microsoft and Oracle OLTP
workloads. As a member of the EMC VNX series, the VNX5500-F
delivers data integrity, multiple RAID options, and proactive
global sparing and diagnostics. Advanced software suites also
provide local and remote data protection, application protection,
security and compliance.
“Hitachi GST is committed to delivering quality solutions for
the enterprise, and their Ultrastar SSDs are a perfect match for
our flash VNX unified storage solution,” said Rich Napolitano,
President, Unified Storage Division at EMC. “They understand our
stringent design and qualification process, and delivered a solid
solution that helps extend the reliability, endurance and sustained
ultra high I/O performance that our customers demand. It is a
pleasure working with the Hitachi team and we look forward to
qualifying additional SSDs in the future.”
“Our enterprise-class SSDs continue to gain traction with our
Global OEMs as tier-0 enterprise applications are of increasing
importance to enterprise IT managers, especially as they redesign
their data centers for improved TCO, and to support advances in
cloud computing, virtualization and thin provisioning,” said Mike
Cordano, Executive Vice President of Sales & Marketing and
president, Branded Business, Hitachi GST. “Over the years, Hitachi
has developed a strong working relationship with EMC and we’re
thrilled to have our SSDs selected in their VNX platform. We look
forward to continuing our relationship and working with them to
complete additional qualifications in the months and years
ahead.”
Hitachi GST Ultrastar SSD400S SLC
SSDs
The Ultrastar SSD400S family combines enterprise-grade SLC NAND
flash memory, advanced endurance management firmware and exclusive
Power-loss Data Management technology to extend reliability,
endurance, and sustained performance over the life of the SSD. The
Ultrastar SSD family achieves an extraordinary 0.44% annual failure
rate (AFR) and endures up to 35PB of random writes over the life of
the drive—the equivalent of writing 19.2 TB per day for five years.
For complete end-to-end data protection and reliability, the
Ultrastar SSD400S family incorporates the T10 Data Integrity Field
(DIF) standard, extended error correction code (ECC), Exclusive-OR
(XOR) parity to protect against flash die failure and
parity-checked internal data paths without an external write
cache.
Hitachi GST is currently shipping its 400GB, 200GB and 100GB SLC
Ultrastar SSD400S drives in volume. The Ultrastar SSD400S family is
backed by a five-year limited warranty, or the maximum petabytes
written (based on capacity).
Hitachi GST is also shipping its Ultrastar SSD400M MLC (multi
level cell) SSD family – the most advanced in the industry
utilizing Intel’s 25 nanometer (nm), highest endurance
Enterprise-grade, MLC NAND Flash and delivering outstanding
performance. Ultrastar SSD400M family is available in a 2.5-inch
form factor with a 6Gb SAS interface in capacities of 200GB and
400GB.
