It has SanDisk Extreme Pro SSD with 10 Years Warranty
A new series of SSD goes to enrich the industry high-end consumer and is the SanDisk Extreme PRO, offered with a guarantee of 10 years.
SanDisk takes advantage of the Computex 2014 a new series of SSD for the consumer sector of high-end, waiting on the shelves during the course of this month. We’re talking about the Extreme PRO Series, very interesting from many points of view.
Let’s start by saying that the controller used is made in house, as well as the management firmware, while the technology is confirmed nCache already seen in other solutions.
These performances are in the order of 550MB per second read and 520MB per second write, values aligned with the best competition and close to the limits imposed by the interface SATA6Gbps. The new series clearly beats the competition, even when turned off, as regards the guarantee: SanDisk offers as many as 10 years, or twice as much as a few competitors who offer 5.
This is a test of strength, and a move aimed to convince those who are still skeptical about the longevity of Solid-State Drive; in 10 years is very likely that the rest of the hardware failures before the SSD. New NAND Flash chips, wear leveling algorithm’s more efficient and quality controllers have now removed the specter of premature death of such a disc, and this nice milestone of 10 years of warranty it is further confirmation.
SanDisk Extreme Pro SSD – Features
- SSDs Provide a Boost for Any Computer. Solid state disk drives provide performance benefits for laptops, desktops, and gaming consoles alike. Because they contain no moving parts, SanDisk SSDs are less likely to fail, which saves you time and the cost of a replacement while also avoiding potential data loss. With pro-level read and write speeds, the SanDisk Extreme Pro SSD delivers ultra-quick boot-up and boot-down sequences, fast application launches, seamless multitasking, and more.
- Quiet, Stable Operation and Low Power Consumption. Unlike traditional hard disk drives, solid disk drives contain no moving parts, making them cooler and quieter and less likely to fail. Plus, SanDisk SSDs consume less power than standard 7,200 RPM hard drives (2) so they’re more energy-efficient and can provide longer laptop battery life. According to a SanDisk research paper, an SSD can extend the life of a laptop by up to 33 percent.
- Ultra-Fast Write Speeds and Safer Data with nCache Pro. The SanDisk Extreme Pro SSD contains nCache Pro Technology, which optimizes your computing experience by balancing all-out speed with long drive life. A large, non-volatile write cache consolidates small writes to boost random write performance and the long-term data endurance of the drive. This technology from SanDisk is designed to mediate how modern-day operating systems and flash memory interoperate. The result is ultra-fast response times and seamless multitasking even in the most resource-intensive applications.
- Designed to Keep Your Data Safe. Housed in a durable aluminum case, the SanDisk Extreme Pro SSD has been engineered to resist shocks and vibrations, preserve the integrity of your data, and prevent data loss – so well that it comes with a 10-year warranty. Dynamic and static wear leveling help extend the life of the drive, while over-provisioning and over-clocking ensure consistent performance even under the heaviest workloads. Other features include bad block management, which prevents uncorrectable memory errors, and thermal throttling, which protects critical drive components against extreme temperatures.
- 2.5 inch Form Factor, 480 Capacity, SATA Revision 3.0 (6/Gb/s)
- Sequential Read up to 550 MB/s, Sequential Write up to 515 MB/s
- Random Read up to 100K IOPS, Random Write up to 90K IOPS
