OCP APAC 2025: Trusta/Adata Highlights SSD Power Efficiency for AI Servers

Trusta, enterprise storage brand of memory Adata Technology Co. Ltd., announced its first-ever participation in the Open Compute Project APAC Summit, the annual technical conference for the open compute industry in Asia-Pacific region, debuts in Taiwan this year, gathering industry leaders to focus on innovations in data centers and AI infrastructure.

In collaboration with Fadu, Inc., enterprise SSD controller brand, Trusta is showcasing their latest technological achievements, presenting a key solution for the sustainable development of data centers in the AI era.

Emphasizes SSD Power Efficiency Amid AI Boom and Corporate Sustainability Challenges
With the explosion of AI applications, data centers are facing unprecedented storage pressure. Since 2012, the computing power required for large language models has grown 4.7 times ⁽¹⁾ annually. Industry forecasts indicate that by 2030, the data volume for AI inference will surpass that of training data by 3.8 times, ⁽²⁾ with energy consumption demand reaching 1.65 times that of 2023. At the same time, GenAI is accelerating the widespread adoption of synthetic data to surpass real-world data. The resulting data explosion – combined with the 24/7 operation of modern data centers – is intensifying the conflict between technological innovation, energy demand, and carbon emissions.

In light of this, Jeffery Lee, VP, enterprise application, ADATA, stated, “Trusta emphasizes a performance standard based on ‘IOs/Watt’ or ‘Bandwidth/Watt’. This standard focuses on the balance between performance and power consumption under heavy workloads, helping customers make smarter procurement decisions based on objective data. It will ultimately reduce data center operating costs and help enterprises achieve their carbon neutrality goals.“

Unveils 1.6x More Efficient PCIe 5.0 SSD among same class for AI Workloads

T7P5 PCIe 5.0 SSDs

To meet the stringent demands of AI and cloud computing for memory and storage, Trusta leverages Adata‘s manufacturing strength as a global leader in DRAM and SSDs, combined with Fadu‘s SSD controller design, to provide customers with a complete solution from DRAM to NAND storage. Trusta’s comprehensive portfolio includes not only high-performance enterprise SSDs but also server-grade DDR5 R-DIMM memory modules, offering speeds up to 6,400MT/s and capacities from 32 to 128GB/module. Its SSD lineup ranges from the PCIe 5.0 and mainstream PCIe 4.0 to SATA 3, and supports diverse form factors such as U.2, E1.S, E3.S, and M.2, making it adaptable to a wide array of server architectures and workloads. The spotlight product at the summit, the T7P5 PCIe 5.0 SSD, delivers blazing-fast RW speeds of 13,500 / 10,300MB/s. Its power efficiency, tested at 447MB/s/Watt, is 1.6 times that of competing products in the same class. With a Drive Writes Per Day (DWPD) rating of up to 3, the T7P5 highlights the company‘s commitment to products with higher durability and performance. It is for write-intensive workloads such as AI/ML model training, Online Transaction/Analytical Processing (OLTP/OLAP), big data exchange, and graphics processing, offering a choice for enterprises to balance sustainability, performance, and cost management while pursuing innovation.
