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
