[The new high-performance PM830 SSDs]
Samsung¡¯s new high-speed SSDs are ideally suited for use in high performance OEM notebooks and tablets. Sample production of the SATA III 512GB SSDs began in May this year. The new drives are expected to replace SATA IIbased SSDs by year-end.
The SATA III SSD shortens system boot-up time to about 10 seconds, while its high-performance allows users to download up to five DVD video files in less than a minute. The 512GB SSD utilizes Samsung¡¯s most advanced 20 nanometer (nm) class*
32Gigabit multi-level cell (MLC) NAND memory chip incorporating the toggle DDR interface.
A proprietary NAND controller facilitates exceptional performance levels that take full advantage of the toggle DDR architecture and the 6Gbps SATA III interface. The new SSD doubles the performance of a SATA II drive, with sequential read speeds of 500 megabytes per second (MBps) and sequential write speeds of 350MBps.
The drive also features the industry¡¯s highest level of security, which uses an AES 256-bit encryption algorithm to protect personal or corporate data from unauthorized access. Samsung¡¯s SATA III SSDs are available in 512GB, 256GB and 128GB densities. The new high-performance SSD line-up is targeted for use in premium OEM notebooks, and tablets.
