Lightning SAS Enterprise Solid State Drives Do More for Less
SanDisk continues its heritage of innovation with Lightning® Solid State Drives (SSDs). This complete portfolio of reliable, high performance SAS storage solutions is designed for I/O-intensive environments including financial services, high performance computing (HPC), video on demand (VOD), and enterprise data centers.
Lightning-fast sustained performance and a highly advanced parallel architecture deliver predictable results over a wide range of workloads. Improve performance while saving money and reducing space and power consumption with a hard drive replacement strategy, or accelerate server performance in conjunction with FlashSoft™ SSD caching software.
Explicitly designed for mission-critical, 24/7 environments, the Lightning portfolio includes solid state storage solutions optimized for Mixed-Use, Write-Intensive, and Read-Intensive applications. A single firmware binary for all models simplifies the qualification process, while full S.M.A.R.T. monitoring implementation gives organizations a complete toolset for managing and optimizing SSD deployments.
Lightning SAS SSDs are available in capacities from 200GB - 1.6TB and up to 118,000 input/output operations per second (IOPS).
