Netlist Launches New Mini PCI Express SSD
Netlist today announced the expansion of its Embedded Flash product portfolio with the new mini PCI Express (PCIe) SSD. Featuring a smaller form factor, the mini PCIe SSD offers storage capacity of up to 128GB with multi-level cell (MLC) Flash and up to 64GB with single-level cell (SLC) Flash. Netlist’s mini PCIe SSD is fully compatible with PCI Express v2.0, supports DDR ONFI 2.2 Flash and bi-directional transfer rates to 5GT/s (Giga transfers per second) on the PCIe bus. It supports read performance up to 350MB/s and write performance up to 170MB/s. The company will begin general availability sampling in July.
“Netlist’s expanding and innovative Flash product portfolio continues to address space constraints that occur in both cloud datacenter and enterprise class servers, storage, and embedded systems,” said Steve McClure, vice president of worldwide sales and marketing for Netlist. “Based on PCIe v2.0 protocol with 5GT/s, the modules are ideal for cache acceleration in tiered storage caching accelerator applications as well as virtualization, boot, and operating system loaders. These new modules are an excellent complement to our recently announced mSATA Slim and mSATA Mini SSD modules.”
