2 Product Specifications
2.1 Performance
Table 2-1: Maximum Sustained Read and Write Bandwidth
Notes:
1. Performance measured using IOmeter 06 with queue depth set to 32.
2. Write Cache enabled with DDR cache.
3. Refer to Application Note AN0006 for Viking SSD Benchmarking Methodology.
4. Data is based on SSD’s using Synchronous NAND devices (ONFI or toggle mode)
Table 2-2: Random Read and Write Input/Output Operations per Second
(IOPS)
Notes:
1. Performance measured using Iometer 06 with queue depth set to 32.
2. Write Cache enabled with DDR cache.
3. Random IOPS cover the entire range of legal logical block addresses (LBA’s). Measurements are
performed on a full drive (all LBA’s have valid content).
4. Performance may vary by NAND type and host.
5. Refer to Application Note AN0006 for Viking SSD Benchmarking Methodology.
6. Data is based on SSD’s using Synchronous NAND devices (ONFI or toggle mode), i.e 30GB
2.2 Timing
Table 2-3: Timing Specifications
Time to Erase (ATA Secure Erase) 9 sec
Notes:
1. Device measured using Drivemaster.
2. Sector Read/Write latency measured up to 2048 block transfers (512B/sector = 1 Block)
3. Queue depth set to 32 for NCQ
4. Sequential IOPS cover the entire range of legal logical block addresses (LBA’s). Measurements are
performed on a full drive (all LBA’s have valid content
5. DRQ (Data Transfer Requested) bit being asserted
2.2.1 STANDBY IMMEDIATE Command
The Power-On-to-Ready time assumes a proper shutdown (power removal
preceded by STANDBY IMMEDIATE command. A STANDBY IMMEDIATE
before power down always performs a graceful shutdown and does not require
