The new Micron S600DC SSD series offer IT managers a compelling solution by incorporating a better overall package of customer benefits than previous drive offerings, including consistent performance, industry-leading storage capacity, and superior data availability and security. The SSD series is the first product family developed as part of Micron's strategic agreement with Seagate earlier this year. It combines flash innovation and SAS expertise from both companies.
Flash technology is driving significant growth in SAS markets. Micron projects a 59 percent growth rate for SAS SSDs over the next four years*. SSD adoption is gaining quickly in business-critical, data-intensive applications, such as credit card transactions and health records processing, which place significant emphasis on data availability and reliability.
The S600DC series, which includes the S610DC, S630DC and S650DC, delivers the performance benefits of Micron's trusted flash storage technology while still providing the enterprise-hardened reliability, capacity, and encryption demanded by today's storage architects.
"These new SAS drives fill a critical position in our enterprise SSD portfolio, expanding storage solutions that cross applications, workloads and interfaces," said Darren Thomas, vice president of storage at Micron. "These offerings extend our leadership as an end-to-end enterprise flash storage provider, from technology all the way to our workload-optimized SSDs."
"Our partners and customers depend on flash technologies to meet the challenges of providing fast performance in data analytics, while staying within expenditure limits. The Micron - Seagate partnership created the storage technology necessary in this offering to exceed their expectations," said Brett Pemble, general manager, flash products division at Seagate Cloud Systems and Electronics Solutions.
