- Nytro 5000 NVMe M.2 SSD and Nytro 3000
SAS SSD Bring New Levels of Performance, Capacity and Scalability
to Enterprise Data Centers
- New 64TB SSD Demonstration Shows What’s
Possible for the Future of Hyperscale
Seagate Technology plc (NASDAQ: STX) announced today at the 2017
Flash Memory Summit (FMS) enhanced versions of two flash
technologies to boost performance and capacity for mixed data
center workloads. The updated solid-state drives — including the
Nytro® 5000 M.2 non-volatile memory express (NVMe) SSD and the
Nytro 3000 Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) SSD — address different
segments of the cloud and data center markets and help
organizations maximize the value of their data. Anticipating the
needs of a range of hyperscale data centers and cloud providers in
the future, Seagate also will highlight a 64-terabyte (TB) NVMe
add-in card (AIC) reading 13 gigabytes per second (GB/s) — the
fastest and highest-capacity SSD ever demonstrated.
As next-generation versions of the Seagate Nytro XM1440 M.2 NVMe
SSD and the Seagate 1200.2 SAS SSD, respectively, the Nytro 5000
NVMe M.2 SSD and Nytro 3000 SAS SSD offer new levels of performance
and scalability. The Nytro 5000 NVMe M.2 SSD is a cost-effective,
lower-power technology ideal for the demands of today’s data center
environments with 2TB of industry-leading capacity. It also boosts
random write performance levels as high as 67,000 input/output
operations per second (IOPS) — double the performance levels of the
previous version. The SSD’s new features match the growing needs of
demanding enterprise applications like data mining, weather
modeling and online transaction processing, where fast data access
and processing power are paramount to an organization’s success.
The SSD also comes with configurable overprovisioning, providing
additional layers of flexibility so organizations can adjust the
drive’s endurance and capacity properties based on their specific
data storage needs — all in a small footprint to allow data centers
to more easily scale and accommodate exponential data growth.
For data center environments where data availability and
capacity are critical to operations, such as content streaming
services and software defined storage (SDS) configurations, the new
Nytro 3000 SAS SSD offers enhanced capacity and performance
features, and a dual-port SAS interface to maintain data integrity
in the event of an unexpected communication channel loss. The drive
provides up to 15TB of capacity, more than four times the capacity
of the previous version. It also offers up to 2,200 megabytes per
second (MB/s) in sequential read performance through a 12 gigabits
per second (Gb/S) SAS dual or wide port interface, helping prevent
storage bottlenecks and ensuring high data reliability,
availability and scalability. Organizations can choose from
multiple configurations, endurance, and security options to fit
their application needs, and avoid having to compromise on
functions and features or pay for more than necessary.
“Seagate is investing heavily in their already broad range of
NVMe and SAS enterprise-class products aimed directly at the data
center, cloud, and hyperscale storage markets,” said George Crump,
lead analyst of Storage Switzerland. “With some product
specifications increasing by as much as five times over the last
generation, these products are ideally aligned to meet the
ever expanding requirements of this market.”
Reflecting the continuous growth of data and the need for
organizations to incorporate technologies that address capacity and
performance needs, Seagate is also demonstrating a 64TB NVMe AIC
that includes performance of up to 13 gigabytes per second (GB/s)
in a single PCIe NVMe add-in-card with full power fail protection.
The technology takes advantage of the industry standard M.2 form
factor to combine multiple SSD controllers into a single PCIe card.
As a result, servers benefit from eight high-performance
controllers managing the SSD’s flash capacity through the one PCIe
socket. Customer samples of the technology are anticipated in the
first half of 2018.
The Nytro 5000 NVMe M.2 SSD and Nytro 3000 SAS SSD will be
available later this year using leading 3D NAND flash
technology.
“Large-capacity SSDs are in high demand in hyperscale computing,
a market that is growing faster than any other sector,” said Jim
Handy, general director of research firm Objective Analysis.
“Seagate’s new SSDs, with their high-performance interfaces and
high capacities, should find ready acceptance in this market and
other data center applications.”
Flash Memory Summit – Product Demos and Keynote
Presentation
Seagate will demonstrate the 64TB NVMe AIC, Nytro 5000 NVMe M.2
SSD and Nytro 3000 SAS SSD in booth #505 at the 2017 Flash Memory
Summit. Other planned demonstrations and displays include:
- A Seagate RealStor™ 5005 all-flash
array using the Nytro 3000 SAS SSD
- A Nytro Q-Boost technology
demonstration with IO Determinism and Multi-Streams
Matt Rutledge, senior vice president of marketing at Seagate
Technology, will present the FMS keynote address, “Mission
Impossible: Surviving Today's Flood of Critical Data,” on
Wednesday, Aug. 9, at 1 p.m. Pacific. The presentation will examine
the role of flash memory and new storage technologies in
managing—and benefitting from—a deluge of data deemed increasingly
life-critical.
