Phison 15.36TB QLC Customizable Enterprise 2.5-Inch SSD Based on S12DC Controller

Phison Electronics announces availability of 15.36TB QLC customizable enterprise SSD solution based on the company’s S12DC controller.

The firm provides its customers with industry SSDs that are customized to their needs by leveraging the company’s firmware, controller, PCBA design, and manufacturing. The S12DC QLC SSD is a storage solution by delivering performance, lower power consumption, and greater rack storage density for read intensive storage applications that currently source HDDs.

Key features:

Capacity 2.5″ (7mm) 15.36TB QLC SATA SSD. 1.92TB, 3.84TB, and 7.68TB QLC SSDs are also available from this product family
Performance and low power specs make it an easy decision to replace HDDs:
- - 530MB/s sequential reads
  - 220MB/s sequential writes
  - 90,000 random read IO/s
  - 10,000 random write IO/s
  - 4.5W maximum active power
  - 0.1 DWPD

Rack storage density – fitting in the 2.5″ (7mm) standard form factor with 15.36TB, the S12DC QLC SSD uses approximately 1/8th of the physical space of a similar capacity 3.5″ HDD
Enterprise SSD feature set includes end-to-end data path protection, power loss protection capacitors (pFail), and a 5-year warranty

The company began shipping the S12DC QLC SSDs to customers in August 2020.

“The adoption rate of QLC SSDs in the data center market segment continues to gain traction in 2020,” said Don Jeanette, VP, SSD research, Trendfocus. “With 4 bits per cell, the cost savings will continue to come down and provide customers value for these read intensive applications. Trendfocus forecasts the enterprise SSD market will maintain greater than 10 million units per year for a number of years out. Enterprise and data center customers looking for high capacity, lower cost SATA storage solutions will have a very viable option with this high capacity QLC based solution.“
