Mushkin has unveiled its latest solid-state drive products at CES
2013. The new products fall into the enterprise class of SSD devices
called ProSpec. The SSDs use enterprise-level MLC flash NAND.
Mushkin
says that the drives offer random read performance of 80K IOPS and
random write performance of 42K IOPS. The SSDs also promised a sustained
transfer rate of 560 MB per second. The drives use a SandForce SF-2582
SSD processor.
The technology used in the SSDs promises
to provide 10 times the write endurance level without any performance
degradation over the life of the drive. Mushkin also features 128-bit
AES hardware encryption and TRIM support. The SSDs are available in
capacities ranging from 100 GB to 400 GB at an undisclosed price.
