Lite-On Storage Group, a global leader in the design, development and manufacturing of enterprise and client solid-state drives announces the debut of its next generation EP2 NVMe M.2 PCIe Gen 3x4 storage solution at Dell World 2015 in Austin, Texas.
In most datacenter environments, having an unacceptably high latency SSD might not be beneficial for some enterprise applications or usage. The importance of incorporating a high performing SSD, like Lite-On’s EP2 ensures the fastest and most consistent command response times in the industry. With 4KB random read and 4KB write performance of up to 250K IOPS/25K IOPS and ultra-low latencies of 35/35 (μs) Lite-On’s EP2 SSD is the right choice for many users looking to combat latency issues. Servers are well equipped to handle all high-performing SSDs and the importance of having such storage devices are favorable to host CPU efficiency for processing the I/Os.
The EP2 employs the NVMe protocol with Lite-On’s proprietary firmware brings a unique approach to datacenter solutions. The EP2 supports high-performance computing (HPC), server virtualization, virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI), big data, and indexing. The EP2 offers power loss protection (PLP), scalability, end-to-end data protection, low power consumption, high endurance, and sustained performance. The M.2 solution can shrink your datacenter, as a high density drive it allows more SSDs to be integrated into a single server, and reduces total cost of ownership (TCO). With its lower power consumption and small form factor, less power and less cooling (airflow demand) are needed, which further reduces total cost of ownership (TCO). Lite-On End-to-End Data Protection conforms to the industry standard of T10 DIFF to protect against silent bit error.

Innodisk, the service-driven flash provider, announces its latest series of SATADOM disk-on-module SSDs featuring a new cable-less power technology. This latest series of SATADOM and ServerDOM come in the same compact form factor but feature a new way of delivering power to the flash drive directly through the SATA connector itself for less clutter and superior reliability. The new patented Pin 8 technology powers a series of SATADOM drives which will come in a variety of compact form factors and flash flavors including SLC, MLC and iSLC, as well as DRAM-less versions for 100% data integrity in the face of power loss. Besides SATADOM with Pin 8 Technology, Innodisk is updating its full line of SATADOM SSDs including SATADOM powered by Pin 7 power and external power cables. The new SATADOM SSDs will feature higher capacities and DRAM-Less SSD technology.
SATA Pin 8 Vcc Power Technology
Patented by Innodisk, SATA Pin 8 Vcc uses the SATA connector itself as a power supply to drive the device without external cables. Extra pins on each side of the drive's connector mate with pins in the motherboard's SATA interface to provide a power source that eliminates the need for cables. Already available on motherboards from top manufacturers, Innodisk's Pin 8 Vcc technology joins Innodisk's SATA Pin 7 Vcc technology to enable compact, cableless SATA storage solutions.
