The increasing demand for high-performance
system storage device is easily met by the Premier Pro SP300 mSATA 3GB/sec solid
state drive. With a SandForce controller and 25nm (MLC) NAND Flash chips, the
SP300 reaches random read and write speeds of up to 12,500/46,000 IOPS. When
combined with the Sandy Bridge or Ivy Bridge platforms, the SP300 can achieve
amazing performance on both desktop and notebook systems. The implementation of
optimized firmware in the SP300 results in full utilization of the NAND Flash
components, which translates to maximized storage capacity: a 7% increase over
other solid state drives that use a SandForce controller. This zero percent
over-provisioning is implemented with no loss to performance or supported
features, and can be realized only by 100% screening and sorting of the
NAND Flash.
The SP300 utilizes a SandForce controller with 25nm (MLC) NAND Flash chips.
Random read/write speeds reach 12,500/46,000 IOPS. For energy saving and
environmental protection, the low power consumption of the mSATA SSD greatly
reduces electricity costs. When the SP300 and hard drive are used together in a
hybrid configuration (SSD Caching), costs can be reduced, while still reaching
nearly the speed performance of an SSD as primary drive. Compared to a sole
mechanical drive, performance is improved by up to 63%.
The SP300 is small and light, measuring only 50.95 × 30 × 4mm. It is
applicable to many motherboards on the market that have an mSATA slot, including
Z77 series motherboards (ASUS Maximus v Gene; Gigabyte G1 Sniper 3, Z77X, and
Z77P, Z77, H77, P75, B75; Asrock Z77E-ITX), Z68-series motherboards (Gigabyte
Z68XP-UD3, Z68XP-D3, Z68AP-D3, and Z68P-DS3), as well as laptops (Acer TM8481G;
micro-GT70).
