Samsung Electronics Tuesday announced that it has launched SZ985 Z-SSD, the industry’s best performance 800-gigabyte (GB) solid state storage drive, for advanced enterprise applications including supercomputing for AI analysis.

Developed in 2017, the new 800GB Z-SSD provides the most efficient storage solution for high-speed cache data and log data processing, as well as other enterprise storage applications that are being designed to meet rapidly growing demand within the AI, big data and IoT markets, the company said in a statement.

The new single port Z-SSD features Z-NAND chips that provide 10 times higher cell read performance than 3-bit V-NAND chips, along with 1.5GB LPDDR4 DRAM and a high performance controller. Equipped with some of the industry’s most advanced components, the 800GB Z-SSD features 1.7 times faster random read performance at 750K IOPS, and five times less write latency - at 16 microseconds, compared to an NVMe SSD PM963, which is based on 3-bit V-NAND chips.

“With the leading-edge 800GB Z-SSD, we expect to maintain firm product competitiveness in next-generation supercomputing system and other premium SSD markets,” said a company official.

The company plans to release second-generation dual port Z-SSDs with extended availability within this year.

Samsung Electronics will introduce its Z-SSD line-ups and related technologies at ISSCC 2018 (International Solid-State Circuits Conference) to be held Feb. 11-15 in San Francisco.
