1,8" SAS SSD

23.02.2013

SMART Storage Systems calls its new Optimus Series SSDs the industry's first 1,8-inch Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) SSDs. According to the manufacturer, these SSDs are designed for use in areas where high performance and reliability requirements are combined with size restrictions.

In particular, the Optimus 1,8-inch SAS models are designed for blade servers. According to SMART Storage Systems, in sequential read and write modes, they reach speeds of up to 500 MB / s, and performance on random access operations reaches 100 IOPS in read mode and 000 IOPS in write mode. The manufacturer notes that these indicators remain at a high level during the entire five-year warranty period for the operation of the devices.

200GB and 400GB drives are planned. They use consumer-grade MLC NAND flash. To increase the service life of drives to a level corresponding to the areas of application stated above, a set of technologies is used, collectively called the Guardian Technology Platform. As a result, SMART Storage Systems estimates that the drive can withstand 10 full overwrites daily for five years.

The first 1,8-inch SAS Optimus samples will begin shipping to customers in the second quarter of this year.

The existence of an entropy rule for quantum entanglement has been proven 09.05.2024

Quantum mechanics continues to amaze us with its mysterious phenomena and unexpected discoveries. Recently, Bartosz Regula from the RIKEN Center for Quantum Computing and Ludovico Lamy from the University of Amsterdam presented a new discovery that concerns quantum entanglement and its relation to entropy. Quantum entanglement plays an important role in modern quantum information science and technology. However, the complexity of its structure makes understanding and managing it challenging. Regulus and Lamy's discovery shows that quantum entanglement follows an entropy rule similar to that for classical systems. This discovery opens new perspectives in the field of quantum information science and technology, deepening our understanding of quantum entanglement and its connection to thermodynamics. The results of the study indicate the possibility of reversibility of entanglement transformations, which could greatly simplify their use in various quantum technologies. Opening a new rule ... >>

Energy from space for Starship 08.05.2024

Producing solar energy in space is becoming more feasible with the advent of new technologies and the development of space programs. The head of the startup Virtus Solis shared his vision of using SpaceX's Starship to create orbital power plants capable of powering the Earth. Startup Virtus Solis has unveiled an ambitious project to create orbital power plants using SpaceX's Starship. This idea could significantly change the field of solar energy production, making it more accessible and cheaper. The core of the startup's plan is to reduce the cost of launching satellites into space using Starship. This technological breakthrough is expected to make solar energy production in space more competitive with traditional energy sources. Virtual Solis plans to build large photovoltaic panels in orbit, using Starship to deliver the necessary equipment. However, one of the key challenges ... >>

New method for creating powerful batteries 08.05.2024

With the development of technology and the expanding use of electronics, the issue of creating efficient and safe energy sources is becoming increasingly urgent. Researchers at the University of Queensland have unveiled a new approach to creating high-power zinc-based batteries that could change the landscape of the energy industry. One of the main problems with traditional water-based rechargeable batteries was their low voltage, which limited their use in modern devices. But thanks to a new method developed by scientists, this drawback has been successfully overcome. As part of their research, scientists turned to a special organic compound - catechol. It turned out to be an important component that can improve battery stability and increase its efficiency. This approach has led to a significant increase in the voltage of zinc-ion batteries, making them more competitive. According to scientists, such batteries have several advantages. They have b ... >>

Alcohol content of warm beer 07.05.2024

Beer, as one of the most common alcoholic drinks, has its own unique taste, which can change depending on the temperature of consumption. A new study by an international team of scientists has found that beer temperature has a significant impact on the perception of alcoholic taste. The study, led by materials scientist Lei Jiang, found that at different temperatures, ethanol and water molecules form different types of clusters, which affects the perception of alcoholic taste. At low temperatures, more pyramid-like clusters form, which reduces the pungency of the "ethanol" taste and makes the drink taste less alcoholic. On the contrary, as the temperature increases, the clusters become more chain-like, resulting in a more pronounced alcoholic taste. This explains why the taste of some alcoholic drinks, such as baijiu, can change depending on temperature. The data obtained opens up new prospects for beverage manufacturers, ... >>

AUO to release 4,3-inch AMOLED panels 05.08.2012

AU Optronics (AUO) President Paul Peng has announced plans for mass production of 4,3-inch AMOLED panels. According to him, the production of products was supposed to begin in the second quarter of this year, however, due to some delays, it had to be postponed until the third quarter.

According to Mr. Penh, the development of new technologies and the development process are not the only challenges faced in the production of panels. An important factor is close cooperation with suppliers of materials and players in the final market.

The products in question will have a density of up to 257 ppi (with a diagonal of 4,3 inches, this corresponds to a resolution of 960 x 540 pixels), which is a record for AMOLED panels to date. AUO engineers are working to integrate in-cell touch technology into AMOLED panels to make displays thinner and lighter, as well as achieve higher sensitivity.

Another direction of development is the one glass solution (OGS) technology, the essence of which is to combine the elements of the display and the outer glass together, which also makes it possible to reduce the thickness of devices. In addition to smartphones, the technology will find application in ultrabooks and tablets, but their share will be only 2-3%.
