1 Data Center Storage Solutions Enterprise hardware and software solutions you can trust When it comes to storage, most enterprises seek the same things: predictable performance, trusted reliability and superior value. The challenge is finding a storage solution that delivers those benefits in a way that makes sense for your business. A pioneer in solid state storage technology, SanDisk provides a wide array of data storage solutions, so you can select what works best for you. SanDisk enterprise Solid State Drive (SSD) products have been qualified, tested and proven by six of the seven tier-1 server and storage vendors as critical components in the enterprise systems they deliver to their data center customers. Easily integrated, scalable, simple to manage and boasting a low total cost of ownership (TCO), SanDisk hardware solutions have earned the trust of these tier-1 OEMs, time and again. Our data center storage solutions include enterprise hardware and software that deliver cutting-edge, workloadoptimized SAS and SATA SSDs, PCIe Solid State Accelerators (SSAs), and flash storage on DIMMs. Additionally, our FlashSoft software enables flash memory devices from any vendor to be seamlessly deployed in servers, increasing application performance and storage efficiency without changes to applications, virtual machines or storage systems. Powerful hardware designed for demanding enterprise requirements Enterprise SAS and SATA SSDs designed for workload optimization Not all data centers are created equal. That s why SanDisk offers a choice of 12Gb/s and 6Gb/s SAS and SATA SSDs tuned to specific application workloads.
