STEC Enterprise Solid State Drives
Enterprise storage is computer storage designed for high-demand, high-performance and large scale enterprise companies. These environments are usually with-in industries that demands high standards such as the financial, medical, computing and military to name a few. These large-scale, high-technology environments of large OEMs require higher performance, higher scalability, reliability, endurance and a demand for “always-on” devices.
Main enterprise storage Markets:
Online Storage:
Mid to very large storage systems solutions; fast access, constant and frequent access with increase reliability
Backup:
Off-line storage for data protection. Usually less expensive than online storage at the same time less demanding in terms of performance
Archiving:
Long term retention of data usually utilized on tape storage medium; cheapest in cost and lowest in performance demands
Disaster recovery solutions:
Data protect and recovery in case of disasters. These solutions are becoming more and more demanding of large scale enterprise as part of continuity plans

What is the performance of an Enterprise-grade SSD?
The speed of an Enterprise grade SSD varies from product to product, with our flag-ship ZeusIOPS SSD leading at 45K IOPS to our server enabling MACH8IOPS SSD at 10K+ IOPS. However, sheer speed of a drive is just one aspect of an Enterprise-grade SSD. The ability to perform tasks consistently and maintaining that speed without failure or lost of performance, 24 hrs – 7 days/wk – 365 days/yr is the mark of a true-enterprise ssd. This mentality of “always-on” is what top OEMs are in pursuit of.
