These new solutions target slim servers, network security devices, but also dual drive notebooks and tablets. The mSATA-enabled Deneva 2 makes use of a SandForce controller, has 20nm-class MLC NAND Flash memory, a MTBF (mean time before failure) of 2 million hours, TRIM support, and delivers up to 80,000 random 4k write IOPS and a 550 MB/s bandwidth.
The Intrepid mSATA drives feature the Indilinx Arowana Flash Transition Layer that provides increased sequential write speeds and IOPS, and the Indilinx Ndurance Technology for enhanced endurance.
