Data Storage Systems, Inc. (DSS, Inc.) is a Value Added Reseller
(VAR) for SanDisk / Pliant Technology, providing our customers
with un-parralled support, services and competitive pricing.
SanDisk / Pliant Technology Enterprise Flash Drives (EFD) are
designed around a new controller plus, new software architecture
that provides the enterprise data center with increased levels of
performance and reliability than hard disk drives and current solid
state disks.
Historically, storage systems have favored the 3.5-inch drive form
factor for superior capacity (GB/drive) and therefore lower cost/GB.
The Lightning LS is based on an advanced controller design and
software architecture that delivers dramatic I/O performance and
reliability improvements over existing SSD technology.
Lightning LS 150S, LS 300S
Highlights:
Increase performance over hard disk drives in enterprise data centers.
Less power consumption than hard disk drives
No moving parts means increased MTBF. Roughly double than that of of hard disk drives.
