How fast is the LightningPRO SC180 and LightningPRO SE300 Flash Rackmount NAS?
Thecus’ LightingPRO series currently comprises of the SC180 and SE300. The SC180 is a 1U rackmount that delivers 360K sustained IOPS with 10 hot-swappable SATA SSDs. For more power, the SE300 is also a 1U Rackmount, yet delivers extremely high transfer speed of more than 700K1U rackmount for 4KB random writes with 8 SSDs using the NVMe interface which gives the whole system a lot more performance.
Thecus utilizes FlexiRemap technology1 which reorders random write data into sequential traffic to increase write performance. Unlike RAID algorithms, FlexiRemap remaps the data whenever beneficial before passing it to the underlying flash memory, avoiding unnecessary overhead and extending the lifespan of SSDs. That allows businesses to remove bottlenecks and achieve sub-millisecond performance.
What are the Highlights of the LightningPRO Series?
- Powerful performance, over 700K IOPS at predictable response times under 1ms
- Sustained performance over time, regardless of workload intensity
- Everything is built into the software platform
- Extended array and SSD lifespan
- Fault tolerance and automatic data reconstruction upon drive replacement
- Low TCO and high energy efficiency, enabling enterprises and datacenters to do more with less
