The Samsung PM893 Series 960GB SATA SSD Drive delivers performance up to the maximum allowable for SATA attached drives: up to 560 MB/sec sequential access, and up to 98,000 IOPS for 4KB random read access. Maximum performance not only allows your workloads to be completed a quickly as possible but also allows efficient shared use of high capacity drives, to maximise the performance per gigabyte of data stored. The Samsung PM893 Series 960GB SATA SSD keeps your private data confidential, with encryption via a hardware-based AES-XTS 256-bit encryption engine, and management via the TCG Opal 2.0 standard.
Key Features:
- High speed with low latency.
- Enhanced reliability, better performance.
- Best solution for heavy demands.
- Reliable storage, 24/7 operation.
- Top solution for diverse applications.
Enterprise Power Loss Protection The Samsung PM893 Series 960GB SATA SSD Drive includes enterprise power loss protection (PLP). During normal power-off periods, the host server allocates time to preserve data integrity by transmitting a standby command to each device. In the event of an unexpected power loss, though, the cached data in a storage device’s internal DRAM buffers can be lost. This can occur with unexpected power outages, or when users unplug devices from the system. The Samsung PM893 Series 960GB SATA SSD Drive has been designed to prevent data loss resulting from unexpected power shutdowns with its PLP architecture. Upon detection of a failure, the SSD immediately uses the stored energy from its PLP capacitors to provide enough time to transfer the cached data in DRAM to the flash memory, ensuring no loss of data.
Optimized for data center demands
Coming in a 2.5-inch form factor and 6 Gb/s SATA interface with 960GB storage, PM893 meets the demands of server storage systems, with added reliability for critical data thanks to end-to-end data protection.
*1GB=1 billion bytes by IDEMA. Actual usable capacity may be less (due to formatting, partitioning, operating system, applications or otherwise).
Performance fit for mixed workloads
PM893 is designed to achieve optimal performance with a high level of QoS (quality of service) under the SATA interface. The sequential read/write speeds of up to 550/520 MB/s and random read/write speeds of up to 98,000/30,000 IOPS are ideal for handling massive amounts of data.
*Performance measured using FIO 2.7 in Linux RHEL 6.5 (Kernel 2.6.32) with queue depth 32, Z170 Intel SATA 6G port. Measurements are performed on whole LBA range. Write cache enabled. Performance may vary depending on capacity, use conditions, and environment.
Secure critical data
Data integrity is critical to data center SSD. PM893 is safeguarded with end-to-end data protection to ensure consistency over the entire data transfer path and prevents data corruption in case of power failure with power loss protection.
Enhanced operations efficiency
Accomplish far more with less. Achieve higher efficiency and performance compared to legacy storage systems, with fewer servers, reduced power and cooling, and lower TCO*,all with efficient management from the advanced Samsung SSD Toolkit software.
*Based on internal test results, compared with 2.5-inch 7200 RPM SATA HDDs
