NGD Systems: Availability of High Capacity Low Power EDSFF E1.S NVMe Up to 12TB SSD

NGD Systems, Inc. announced a high capacity, low power EDSFF E1.S NVMe SSD.

The Newport platform EDSFF is a NVMe SSD with 12TB capacity that also makes available the company’s ‘Computational Storage‘ capabilities known as ‘In-Situ Processing’. The platform does this without impact to the reliability, QoS or power consumption, already available in the current shipping company’s other NVMe Computational Storage Drives (CSD).

The ability to support low power and symmetrical form factor designs allow the firm’s solution to offer a range of solutions in the E1.S form factor.

With work being done in the SNIA (Storage Networking Industry Association) and OCP (Open Compute Project) working groups on alternative form factors for power hungry devices, the company has provided the flexibility that customers need to ensure success of their system level designs. This is especially true for edge and non-traditional data center deployments where space, power and processing are paramount. Partnering with many current server manufacturers to provide customers solutions has also been something the firm has accomplished to allow for broad and immediate deployment of this new form factor.

“Partnering with NGD Systems to qualify and deploy their EDSFF E1.S solutions in our latest products is helping ensure broad and fast adoption of our latest products as well,” said CT Sun, CTO and VP, engineering, AIC, Inc. “Through collaboration and evaluation of the product we can assist our customers with finding solutions that are not available from any other vendor when it comes to capacity, flexibility or available resources like Computational Storage Engines. We are very excited to have a valuable partner like NGD Systems on our available products for integration into our platforms.“

The Newport platform family of drives are in production and available for deployment. The Newport Platform EDSFF E1.S is available in capacities of up to 12TB and a NVMe Computational Storage Drive (CSD) EDSFF product.
