Conduant Delivers High R/W Data Rates With M.2-Based Storage Modules for PCIe Systems

Conduant Corporation introduced the Big River DM-4M.2 3U storage unit delivering up to 4TB of M.2 storage capacity.

The DM-4M.2 with a PCIe Gen3 x8 host interface delivers data rates for sequential writes of 3.25GB/s and sequential reads of 3.4 GB/s to PCIe systems. The Big River DM-4M.2 3U is designed to provide high- speed storage for use in the fields of industrial control and test and measurement.

The single slot design of the Big River DM-4M.2 3U storage unit preserves valuable chassis space allowing for maximum storage flexibility and is software RAID configurable. The DM-4M.2 complies with PCIe Gen3 protocol standards for the highest bandwidth possible and increased R/W performance.

The DM-4M.2 is designed to meet the non-volatile memory express (NVMe) specification for maximum throughput on the PCIe bus and operates under major OSs including Windows, Linux, Unix, Solaris and VxWorks.

“Conduant designed the DM-4M.2 to leverage the latest high speed interconnect available using Gen 3 PCIe components,” said Ken Owens, founder and CEO. “The resulting R/W speeds bring a whole new level of performance to PXIe based storage. We’ve taken advantage of the compact form factor of the M.2 for a single slot design and eliminated cable management and data connectors. It’s simple, elegant and offers the highest R/W performance available today.“

Pricing for the DM-4 M.2 3U starts at $3,700 with 512GB. Units are available with a 30-day lead time.
