The IDX22, codenamed Barefoot, is an SSD controller supporting up to512GB capacity using multi-level cell (MLC) NAND flash chips. It has aSATA II interface, that's 3Gbits/sec, and has read and write speeds of230MB/sec and 170MB/sec respectively using single-level cell (SLC)flash.
These slow to still impressive 200MB/sec (read) and 160MB/sec (write)with MLC NAND. The IDX22 has two independely operating groups of fourchannels and a DRAM cache. It uses two types of hardware errorcorrection code (ECC): Reed-Solomon; and Bose-Chadhuri-Hocquenghem. Thecontroller chip uses a 90nm process.
1.5 million hours mean time between failures (MTBF)
Mass production is scheduled in Q4 of this year
Super Talent的新品UltraDrive系列虽然同样为2.5寸SATA II规格,但主要针对企业市场。其中LE型号为SLC颗粒,读取速度高达230MB/s,写入也达到170MB/s,容量最大128GB。而ME系列为 MLC颗粒,最高读取速度200MB/s,写入速度160MB/s,容量最大256GB。该系列SSD将于明年一月上市,售价并未公布。
Milpitas, California (August 13, 2008) - Indilinx, a fab-less semiconductor company, unveiled Barefoot⑩, its high-performing solid state drive (SSD) controller with 90nm process technology, and made a presentation about “High Performance SSD and Benefit for Server Applications” at FLASH MEMORY SUMMIT held in Santa Clara, California from August 12 to 14.
Barefoot⑩ shows the fastest read speed 230MB/s of all the products currently available in the market and supports the capacity up to 512GB with multi-level cell (MLC) NAND flash. Industry experts appreciate the introduction of BarefootTM as a turning point to the times when high-performing SSD with bandwidth of over 200MB/s and random input-output (IO) of 20,000/s into various servers such as on-line transaction processing (OLTP) and a streaming server.
