Samsung develops high-performance SSD for enterprise servers By Kim Bo-eun Samsung Electronics said Thursday it has developed a new solid-state drive for enterprise servers that offers up to two times faster data transfer speeds of current devices and consumes up to 30 percent less power than the previous generation. The chip giant said that the PM1743 SSD integrates a peripheral component interconnect express 5.0 interface with Samsung's sixth-generation V-NAND. This boost is expected to lower server and data center operating costs significantly, while also helping to reduce their carbon footprint. Available in a wide variety of capacities from 1.92 terabytes to 15.36 terabytes, the PM1743 will be offered in the conventional 2.5-inch form factor, as well as in a 3-inch enterprise and data center standard form factor ― an increasingly popular SSD form designed specifically for next-generation servers and data centers. "The introduction of our PCIe 5.0 SSD, along with PCIe 6.0-based product developments that are underway, will further solidify our technological leadership in the enterprise server market," Samsung Electronics Executive Vice President and Head of the Memory Controller Development Team Song Yong-ho was cited as saying in a press release.
