Density Dynamics Announces InDrive-Tiering(TM) Technology; Delivers Superior Price Performance with Expanded Capacity
Posted by ssh on October 08, 2009 at 05:23 PM
GERMANTOWN, Md., Oct. 8 /PRNewswire/—Density Dynamics, a majority owned
subsidiary of Speedus Corp. (Nasdaq: SPDE), announced today it is offering a new InDrive-Tiering enhancement for its RamFlash Jet.io Solid State Drive. The design includes up to 32GB of DRAM storage capacity for heavy write requirements as well as extended capacity using Flash for less accessed storage. This patent-pending technology allows for significant capacity expansion in the Jet.io RF-SSD for applications that have more focused write workloads. The Jet.io products come in a uniquely compact 3.5-inch form factor alleviating I/O bottlenecks using dramatically lower power than other storage solutions.
"For customers with certain types of applications, this mix of RAM and Flash storage using our InDrive-Tiering technique will provide the durability and performance they need while providing higher capacity at a lower price point. This new version of the Jet.io RF-SSD will be available in the 1st quarter of 2010," said Dave Wilkerson, CTO of Density Dynamics.

Density Dynamics Launches 1st Pure DRAM Solid State Drive; Overcomes Degradation Cited in Flash SSD for Write Intensive Trading Platforms
Posted by ssh on September 21, 2009 at 02:18 PM
GERMANTOWN, Md., Sept. 21 /PRNewswire/—Density Dynamics, a majority owned subsidiary of Speedus Corp. (Nasdaq: SPDE - News), announced today it has released a new DRAM solid state drive (DR-SSD) designed exclusively with DRAM memory.
DR-SSD technology is now available in the newly available DRAM Jet.io(TM). The Density Dynamics proprietary design utilizes DRAM memory for "hot" core storage functions in a uniquely compact 3.5-inch form factor alleviating I/O bottlenecks using dramatically lower power than other storage solutions.
"We use DRAM as the core of our solid state drive because it doesn't degrade like flash based SSDs used by most SSD vendors. Prospective customers have told us of their real world experience with flash SSD degradation for high volume random write (w-ops) applications. DRAM Jet.io targets customer applications that do not require a non-volatile solution. No other SSD suppliers have a 100% DRAM SSD in a 3.5" form factor available today," said Dave Wilkerson, CTO of Density Dynamics. "While the market for SSDs has grown dramatically, the focus on flash based solutions has left many customers wondering about the durability limitations of flash as we have explained in our recently published white paper," added Wilkerson
"Flash SSD degrades under high write volume applications such as trading networks and other financial platforms. These findings have been cited in recent articles. The industry continues to highlight the problem and announce ongoing fixes using sophisticated algorithms within proprietary software. Density Dynamics addresses these issues with its DRAM Jet.io and RamFlash Jet.io(TM) products with DRAM being the only medium in use in full operation mode of our SSD," said Shant Hovnanian , CEO of Density Dynamics.
