OCZ Technology Introduces the RevoDrive 3 Max IOPS Edition

btarunr · Nov 8, 2011, 06:18 AM

OCZ Technology Group, Inc., a leading provider of high-performance solid-state drives (SSDs) for computing devices and systems, today launched the RevoDrive 3 Max IOPS and RevoDrive 3 X2 Max IOPS solid state drives. Designed to deliver maximum throughput in multithreaded applications, the new Max IOPS edition is an extension of the company's industry-leading RevoDrive 3 product line, supporting workstation users that require greater transactional throughput and bandwidth.

The RevoDrive 3 X2 Max IOPS series combines a proven cutting-edge PCI Express architecture and OCZ proprietary Virtualized Controller Architecture (VCA) 2.0 flash virtualization layer with premium NAND flash components to deliver exceptional 4KB random write performance of up to 245,000 IOPS, along with increased transfer rates at 1900 MB/s reads and 1725 MBs/ writes.

"The new RevoDrive 3 Max IOPS solid state drives further expand on our original PCIe series, and are designed to deliver even more bandwidth for the most demanding applications," said Daryl Lang, VP of Product Management, OCZ Technology Group. "Engineered to leverage the benefits of multi-threaded processors and applications, the Max IOPS provides both the performance and features required by clients to address the most intensive workloads common in high performance computing and workstation environments."

The RevoDrive 3 Max IOPS edition will be available in 120GB to 480GB capacities while the RevoDrive 3 X2 Max IOPS edition will be available in 240GB to 960GB capacities, providing ample space for primary persistent storage, multimedia files, and operating systems with the superior durability, energy efficiency, and reliability of SSDs. The new RevoDrive 3 Max IOPS and RevoDrive 3 X2 Max IOPS will be available throughout OCZ's global distribution channel and come with a three warranty.

I want one but I'm sure the price will prohibit that. Sounds awesome for those that are getting high end SB-e chips though.

Rowsol · Nov 8, 2011, 06:47 AM

245k IOPS? If it didn't have the name OCZ it would be sweet.

n-ster · Nov 8, 2011, 07:25 AM

I'm interested in that X2 MAX IOPS 240GB

dieterd · Nov 8, 2011, 08:02 AM

this one has a heatsink! small, but it brings back old days - when GPU's had such a heatsinks... maybe after 10 years there will be ssd with need of 3 slot 2 fand cooling solutions

Foley huck what a beast. Wouldn't mind an X2 MAX IOPS 240GB myself, n-ster.

Hayder_Master · Nov 8, 2011, 11:35 AM

Hoooooooooooooly s**t, this is crazy dammmmmmmmn i want one.

Red_Machine · Nov 8, 2011, 11:41 AM

I'm sorry, but when I look at that I can't help but thinking of a RAM addon board for an IBM PC compatible.
