Samsung Data Center SSD Line Up for Enterprise and Business Big Data Applications

Consists of 860 DCT, 883 DCT, 983 DCT and 983 ZET, up to 3.84TB for 860 DCT.

Samsung Electronics America, Inc. unveiled the Samsung Data Center SSD (SSD) lineup to address current and future trends in HPC storage in the big data era for SMBs.

SAMMSUNG SSD-860 DCTDSHTThe family of Data Center SSD solutions, which consists of the 860 DCT, 883 DCT, 983 DCT and the 983 ZET, are engineered to meet the evolving needs of SMBs, including faster, sustained performance, higher capacities and enterprise reliability and security.

The Data Center SSD portfolio will raise the bar for efficiency compared to legacy storage systems, requiring fewer servers and reduced power and cooling for a lower TCO. This lineup delivers better QoS for SMBs by reducing latency and lowering data delays. The line provides enhanced reliability and endurance for 24/7 operation backed by a 5-year limited warranty and high Drive Writes Per Day (DWPD) ratings.

Samsung’s Data Center SSD portfolio provides SMBs with a future-proof lineup to fit their unique business needs in the incredibly diverse market,” said Richard Leonarz, director, product marketing, Samsung Electronics. “Samsung leveraged years of memory product engineering expertise to deliver a simple, yet optimized SSD lineup that addresses today’s super computer trends.

SSD lineup includes following solutions to meet widest range of SMB storage needs:

  • 860 DCT is designed for servers requiring SSD-levels of sustained performance and is suitable for read-intensive workloads. It allows for a lower TCO compared to HDDs and offers capacities up to 3.84TB. It is a solution for content delivery network systems and comes with a 0.20 DWPD rating.

  • 883 DCT is designed for servers used to safeguard critical data, including power loss protection and end-to-end data protection. It offers a high QoS under the SATA interface and will be available in capacities ranging from 240GB up to 3.84TB at a 0.8 DWPD rating.

  • 983 DCT is a performance solution for servers using an NVMe interface, which allows for fast speeds and responsiveness. It comes in two form factors – U.2 and M.2 – and will deliver jaw-dropping sequential RW speeds of up to 3,000/1,900MB/s (U.2) and 3,000/1,400MB/s (M.2). The 983 DCT is for real-time big data analytics applications and comes with a 0.8 DWPD rating.

  • 983 ZET is a cache memory solution that offers a level of performance with low latency, high level of QoS, speeds and reliability. It is the storage solution for NoSQL DB such as application workload case, and it comes with a ten DWPD rating.

All Data Center SSDs integrate with the Samsung SSD Toolkit, which allows for simple maintenance, such as firmware updates, data erasure, over-provisioning setup and disk status.

The 860 DCT, 883 DCT and 983 DCT are available and the 983 ZET will be available September 24.

(2) For detail test conditions, please refer to each product’s respective data sheet.
(*) 860 DCT, 883 DCT: Performance measured using FIO 2.18 with queue depth 32, Z270 Intel 6Gb  SATA port. Measurements are performed on whole LBA range. Write cache enabled. Performance vary depending on capacity.
(*) 983 DCT: Based on PCIe Gen3 x4, Random performance measured using FIO 2.7 in CentOS6.6 (kernel 3.14.29) with 4KB (4,096 bytes) of data transfer size in queue depth 32 by four workers and Sequential performance with 128KB (131,072 bytes) of data transfer size in queue depth 32 by one worker. Actual performance may vary depending on use conditions and environment. 1MB/s = 1,000,000 bytes/s was used in sequential performance
(*) 983 ZET: Based on PCIe Gen3 x4, Random performance measured using FIO in CentOS 7.0 with queue depth 32 by four workers and Sequential performance with queue depth 32 by one worker. Actual performance may vary depending on use conditions and environment. 1MB/s = 1,000,000 bytes/s was used in sequential performance
(
3). TBW (Total byte written) is measured while running 100 % random 4KB writes across the entire SSD (TBW = DWPDx365x3xUser capacity)
(*) All documented endurance test results are obtained in compliance with JESD218 Standards. See for detailed information on JESD218 Standards
