Ramsan-400 Sets Performance Records
January 29, 2008: Texas Memory Systems has laid claim to another world data storage performance record, and at the same time it claims to have broken another price versus performance record.
The solid state disk storage (SSD) specialist says the new records were achieved using standard server and storage network hardware, combined with its RamSan-400 SSD.
According to results submitted to the Storage Performance Council (SPC), the RamSan-400 solid state disk delivered a record 291,208.58 SPC-1 IOPS (input/output requests per second) with a record average response time of 0.86 milliseconds.
As for price-performance, the RamSan-400 took out another record by delivering this performance at US$0.67 (AU$0.76) per SPC-1 IOPS.
“Texas Memory Systems is to be congratulated for its use of the industry-standard SPC-1 benchmark to validate the world record performance and price-performance of the RamSan-400,” said Walter E. Baker, Administrator of the Storage Performance Council.
“This outstanding SPC-1 Result further illustrates the applicability of SPC Benchmarks to measure and compare a wide range of storage products including innovative solid state storage systems such as the RamSan-400.”
