VP1-250-eSSD 3U Open VPX NVMe by Phoenix International

Phoenix International Systems, Inc. unveiled its 3.2TB capacity VP1-250-eSSD 3U Open VPX NVMe SSD storage module at AFCEA/USNI West 2017 conference and exposition.

NVMe is an industry-standard registered interface designed to accelerate the performance of nonvolatile PCIe SSDs. The protocol was established in collaboration by server industry leaders to standardize a scalable PCIe interface, making it easier for designers to unlock the potential of PCIe. NVMe provides opportunities for increased data throughput and reduced latency all while reducing the number of drives needed – both now and in the future.

Adoption of this industry standard is driven by a consortium of storage technology providers and an ecosystem of drivers across multiple OSs.

The VP1-250-eSSD is 3U VPX SSD storage module that delivers performance via a single Fat Pipe (PCIe 4x). Designed from the ground up to remove legacy layers of HDD interfaces such as SATA and SAS, it takes advantage of the speed and parallelism of solid state nonvolatile memory. Streamlined efficient queuing protocol combined with an optimized command set register interface enables low latency and performance. Data is delivered fast and efficiently with minimal burden on the host CPU.

Features of VP1-250-eSSD storage module:

• Out-of-the-box software, drivers and manageability enable easy adoption and storage interoperability

• Capacities from 800GB to 3.2TB

• Optimized register interface and command set lowers latency

• Performance:

  • Sequential 128KB read: 3.0GB/s

  • Sequential 128KB write: 2.0GB/s

  • Random 4KB read: 750,000 IO/s

  • Random 4KB write: 300,000 IO/s

• Operating shock: 1,000G/1ms

• Operating vibration: 3.1GRMS 5-800Hz@30 min/axis

• Advanced flash management for enhanced reliability and durability

• Streamlined protocol with efficient queuing mechanism to scale for multi-core CPUs

• 2,000,000 hours MTBF
