Hitachi first with 25nm SLC NAND flash enterprise SSD

By

Hitachi GST claims its latest Ultrastar solid state drives are the first enterprise-class SSDs to use 25 nanometre SLC NAND flash memory technology.
Hitachi's Ultrastar SSD400S.B family of SSDs use 25 nanometre SLC NAND flash memory technology for reliability over a long life.

Using enterprise-grade flash memory from Intel, the new drives are offered in 100GB, 200GB and 400GB models. The 400GB unit is said to be good for up to 35TB of random writes, "the equivalent of writing 19.2TB/day for five years" according to Hitachi officials.

The drives are packaged with 2.5in 6Gbps SAS interfaces, and include proprietary endurance firmware and power management techniques. A self-encrypting option is available to provide greater security and the ability to effectively erase a drive simply by erasing the onboard key.

HItachi GST is in the process of being acquired by Western Digital.
