In the field of SSDs, “Huashan Swordsman” has new participants. Samsung Z-SSD introduced the M.2 interface model.
The Z-SSD is Samsung's top-level enterprise product developed to fight against Intel Optane storage. It also features ultra-high read/write and low-latency features. In January 2018, it announced the PCIe interface, the expansion card in the form of the SZ985.
According to Anandtech report, Samsung Open Compute Project (OCP) Summit 3. Samsung displayed the MZ2 SZ985 SSD on the platform.
Interestingly, outsiders have speculated that Samsung will pile out black technology from the main control to flash memory like Intel. However, after careful identification The main control is actually a Phoenix 8-channel product, like the PM981, which is likely to be used in the successors of the future 960 Pro/EVO.
Performance is still impeccable, supporting the NVMe protocol, Take the PCIe x4 channel, capacity 240G and 480G, continuous read and write maximum speeds are 3200MB/s and 2800MB/s respectively,
In terms of reliability, the hard disk write per day (DWPD) is 30, taking 240GB as an example, which means that During the warranty period (generally 5 years), the daily write volume can reach 30 times of 240GB (30 rounds of total), which is 7200GB... It is really terror to the fingertips.
