OCZ Technology OCZSSDPX-ZD2P841T hard drive specifications
OCZ Z-Drive R2 PCI-Express SSD p84 - solid state drive - 1 TB - PCI Express x8
The Z-drive p84 R2 SSD maximizes bandwidth by taking the SATA bottleneck out of the equation and utilizes the speed advantages of the PCI-Express interface. Unlike competing solutions, the Z-drive family is bootable and with 8 PCI-E lanes and a four-way RAID 0 configuration, the R2 p84 delivers performance ideal for enterprise applications that are limited by HDD technology. What also makes the R2 especially exceptional is the use of interchangeable modules in the place of permanent, surface-mounted NAND; this unique feature-set is designed to make the Z-drive field-serviceable and field-upgradeable. Addressing the emerging performance demands of storage area networks (SANs), workstations, and servers, the Z-drive R2 creates possibilities in enterprise data management. The p84 R2 delivers extremely fast transfer rates while offering enhanced reliability and durability compared to mechanical hard drives. Promoting greater productivity for a broad range of applications spanning across virtualization, caching, and high-end storage, the Z-drive R2 can also provide cost savings when considering the total cost of ownership (TCO) versus complex and hard to maintain HDD infrastructures. The p84 R2 makes SSDs a viable alternative to large, power-consuming hard drive arrays.
