Maximize Storage and Server Scalability with SAS SSDs Data is transforming the world and growing at an exponential pace. The SAS interface continues its dominance in traditional enterprise storage arrays, making the ever- increasing volume of data rapidly and reliably available. Storage solutions depend on SAS’s protection features, such as dual-port failover for redundancy, and SAS’s high reliability to power mission-critical applications such as ERP, OLTP, OLAP, and more. Proven Architecture with Industry-Leading Quality and Reliability Ultrastar DC SS530 leverages the proven architecture of the prior generation Ultrastar SS300 with second generation 3D TLC NAND flash memory. The Ultrastar DC SS530 achieves an extraordinary 0.35% annual failure rate (AFR) or 2.5 million hours mean-time-between-failure (MTBF). DC SS530 offers three endurance options of 1, 3 and 10 drive writes per day (DW/D) to meet the most stringent data center requirements. Help keep confidential data secure by deploying self-encrypting drive technology that supports Trusted Computing Group (TCG) Enterprise standards for security services and FIPS 140-2 validation for cryptographic-enabled drives that are required for certain government applications. The Ultrastar DC SS530 is backed by a five-year limited warranty or the maximum petabytes (PB) written (based on capacity), whichever comes first. Trust Your Storage Systems with SSD Products Developed by Experts in Enterprise Storage Ultrastar SAS SSDs leverage decades of proven enterprise storage expertise in Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) design, reliability, firmware, customer qualification, and system integration. The synergistic relationship between the new throughput-enhancing SSDs and traditional HDDs provides cost-effective, end-to-end enterprise-class storage options that deliver reliability, compatibility, capacity, cost savings, and system performance. This combination makes Ultrastar storage drives an ideal choice to help meet escalating reliability, endurance, and performance requirements in the most demanding data center environments.
