EDGE SSD
Oering larger storage capacities with exceptional performance, the
EDGE Boost Server Solid State Drive (SSD) is a premium storage
upgrade solution for servers and datacenters.
Enterprise level SandForce controllers provide the Boost Server SSD
with data enhancements as well as ultra fast read and incompress-
ible write speeds. Performance gains associated with data access,
backup, and recovery are immediately realized upon installation.
Boost Server SSDs consume less power per transaction than hard
drives, resulting in a desirable blend of performance and eciency.
Power Fail support is an available option to protect against data loss
in the event of system power failure—an essential function for serv-
ers and mission critical applications. SSDs without power fail protec-
tion are prone to corruption or complete failure if a system suddenly
loses power.
AES hardware encryption comes standard and secures 100% of data
when enabled.* The feature-rich SandForce controller enhances
stability and reliability with support for TRIM, S.M.A.R.T., Garbage
Collection, Wear Leveling, and ECC. SandForce exclusive functions -
Durawrite and RAISE - further improve data eciency and increase
the lifespan of the SSD.
Boost Server SSDs are compatible with many popular operating
systems, including Windows Server and Linux, and work in both SATA
and SAS** enabled systems. Optional server upgrade kits are also
available from EDGE Memory.
With savings on power and cooling costs, decreased system down-
time, and increased productivity, upgrading a server to the Boost
Server SSD is a sound investment. For more write heavy environ-
ments , eMLC and SLC versions are also available (please contact an
EDGE Memory representative for details). All EDGE Boost SSDs are
backed by a three-year warranty.***
*Consult your computer’s manual to ensure drive encryption is a supported function of the BIOS.
**Will function in a SAS environment but we not have SAS specific features
