Balanced Drive

SanDisk® G3 SSD, an optimally balanced drive, providing enhanced user experience with uncompromising reliability and endurance

SanDisk® G3 SSD (G3 SSD) is an optimally balanced drive that is ideal for supporting all your computing needs.

With SanDisk® G3 SSD, PC users benefit from smoother multi tasking capabilities and improved system responsiveness so their everyday computing experience can be much more productive and pleasant, for as long as they need it to be.

SanDisk® G3 SSD delivers uncompromised reliability and endurance, as it is supported by a paged based algorithm - ExtremeFFS™ technology2 which has the potential to accelerate random write performance thus extend the endurance of SanDisk® G3 SSDs inside PCs that use operating systems such as Windows XP and Windows 7.

In addition, SanDisk developed a metric called LDE1 (Long-term Data Endurance) that quantifies how much data can be written to a SSD in its lifespan expressed in terabytes written (TBW). SanDisk® G3 SSD delivers up to 80 TBW (Terabyte written) of LDE. With such long-term reliability and endurance, SanDisk® G3 SSD is an excellent storage solution for PC users looking for faster computing3.

 

Footnotes:
1 Approximations based on LDE (Long-term Data Endurance) - an industry metric, introduced by SanDisk, that quantifies how much data can be written to a SSD in its lifespan expressed in terabytes written (TBW). Data is written using typical PC transfer size, written at a constant rate over the life of the SSD, and data is retained for at least 1 year upon LDE exhaustion. Based on SanDisk internal measurements, a typical client PC user writes 4GB/day.

2 ExtremeFFS is a SanDisk page-based flash management algorithm, optimized for popular operating systems, has the potential to greatly increase SSD random write speeds and efficiency thus accelerating the performance and extending the endurance of SSDs inside PCs

3 Based on SanDisk internal testing using Microsoft Windows Performance Tool Kit. Performance varies depending upon OS and application. Platform: Dell Optiplex 760, Intel Core 2 Processor E8400, 2GB DDR2; OS: Microsoft Windows 7 Ultimate; HDD:Seagate HDD 7200.4 RPM 250 GB; SSD: G3 RC304 60GB.
