Enterprise storage/computing is becoming less centralized in datacenters and controlled environments and becoming more distributed. Data is being driven to the edge where operating conditions are more extreme, locations are not easy to reach, and often, on the constant move. A new breed of storage solutions is needed, which combines the benefits of industrial solid-state drives (SSDs) and enterprise solutions.
ATP Electronics, the global leader in specialized storage and memory solutions, proudly unleashes a product class like no other, going beyond the limits of traditional storage solutions, and offering the best of both of industrial and enterprise worlds: THE NEW INDUSTRIAL ENTERPRISE Series.
The Industrial Enterprise N651Sie Series SSDs leverage NVMe PCIe Gen4x 4 and are available as M.2, U.2, and E1.S. They are built for the age of data deluge as centralized computing increasingly moves to the edge, and enterprise operations in uncontrolled environments become more prevalent.
They combine the best of enterprise and industrial features, making them excellent as boot drives, data storage drives, or mixed-use drives.
Best of Both Worlds:
Engineered for Enterprise-Class Workloads in Uncontrolled Environments
Best Enterprise-Class Features
- Endurance. The N651Sie Series offers varied endurance ratings suitable for specific uses.
- Data Retention. With 100% P/E cycles, Industrial Enterprise SSDs can store data for up to a year at 55°C. This exceeds JESD219A standards for Enterprise-Class SSDs typically operating at 55°C for 24 hours a day, which should be able to retain data for three months at 40°C after it is powered off.
- Consistent Performance for Enterprise Workloads. Sequential Read/Write performance of up to 6,450/6,050 MB/s along with high Sustained Sequential/Random Write of up to 3,200/1,280 MB/s translate to consistency and not just very high burst performance.
- High Quality of Service (QoS). A QoS 99.9999% with Read <90µs and Write <10µs for M.2; Read <80µs and Write <10µs for U.2 and E1.S.
- Reliability. Very low uncorrectable bit error rate (UBER) value of less than 1 in 10^17 validated through End-of-Life testing and Reliability Demonstration Testing (RDT).
Best Industrial-Grade Advantages
- I-Temp Support, Robust Cross-Temp Error Handling. Industrial Enterprise SSDs operate reliability within a 125°C temperature range for reliable operation from -40°C to 85°C). ATP Electronics’ Cross-Temp Error Handling Solution maintains the reliability and data integrity of NAND flash under severe temperature changes and even towards the storage device’s end of life.
- Hardware Power Loss Protection (HW PLP) protects stored data as well as data in transit to prevent data loss or corruption, especially in high-performance computing environments where devices are running 24/7.
ATP’s Enterprise Readiness Standards: Over 70% of companies listed on Gartner’s Magic Quadrant report for Primary Storage, Data Center and Cloud Computing, and WAN-Edge Infrastructure consider ATP as a strategic supplier.
ATP excels in supporting enterprise infrastructures with its extensive testing and validation capabilities. This includes utilizing prime NAND packages, conducting rigorous NAND integrated circuit (IC) characterization, and performing 100% NAND screening and validation. Additionally, ATP enhances its offerings with custom-developed firmware, specialized hardware configurations, and advanced technologies. Consequently, over 70% of companies featured in Gartner’s Magic Quadrant for Primary Storage, Data Center and Cloud Computing, and WAN-Edge Infrastructure regard ATP as a key strategic supplier.
Under ATP’s WE BUILD WITH YOU program, the following enhanced Firmware Customization Services are available on a project basis to meet various enterprise customer needs in Server, Storage and Compute.
- Performance Behavior Tuning. Performance behavior analysis and customization to optimize throughput and latency in a customer host application.
- Power Loss Protection (PLP) Tuning
- Optimized Flush Cache Timing. Ensures that the flush cache is completed within the capacitors’ hold-up time to ensure the integrity of data in flight and at rest.
- PLP Capacitor Monitoring. Performed using the onboard microcontroller unit (MCU), includes regular capacitor health checks during SSD bootup and operation.
- Thermal Management Customization. ATP’s adaptive thermal throttling solution is distinguished by the ability to adjust the temperature settings according to the customer’s application-specific requirements.
- Enhanced Read Disturb Resilience. The ATP FW monitors and refreshes frequently read and read-only data by moving it to another block when the error criteria or threshold is met. ATP can modify the FW to enhance its ability to withstand Read Disturb events in specific Enterprise use cases, such as Boot-Up Scenarios.
- SMART ID Customization. The firmware includes a range of Self-Monitoring, Analysis and Reporting Technology (SMART) ID attributes that can be customized based on customer requirements.
- Download Microcode Capability. This service is part of flexible firmware maintenance, enabling Enterprise customers to rapidly make updates to their specific configurations via field updates, avoiding the hassle of sending SSDs back to ATP for reinitialization.
