OCZ announces a range of SSD with the Indilinx Everest controller

OCZ announces a range of SSD with Indilinx Everest controller.After of excellent DSS based on Indilinx Barefoot, a time not so long ago, but yet well gone. Performance has greatly progressed so Everest will replace Barefoot Indilinx or rather OCZ, the latter being owner of Indilinx recently.The Indilinx Everest controller is compatible with a wide choice of components while enabling a rich range of SSD.Thus, Everest is compatible with memory Flash (single-Level, 1 Bit per cell) SLC, MLC (Multi-Level, 2 Bits per cell) and TLC (Triple-Level, 3 Bits per cell).Everest also supports memory ONFI 2.0 and Toggle Flash 1.0 on eight channels with a flow rate up to 200 MT/s (mega-transfer per second), there where other controllers reach 166 MT/s from OCZ.

Advanced by OCZ sequential performance would be 500 MB/s. Everest is also optimized for writing small files with a size of 8 KB, thereby increasing performance for compressed files with a size of 4 KB to 16 KB.System startup time would also be 50% faster than the competition with new algorithms always from OCZ.

For successfully to all this, the Everest controller based on ARM processor dual core supported by of the DDR3 running at 400 Mhz with a capacity up to 512 MB. The maximum supported capacity is 1 To. It will also support the SATA 3.0 (6 GB/s) interface and will be therefore retro-compatible SATA 2 (3 GB/s) and SATA (1.5 GB/s) 1It remains only to wait and see what will actually be worth Everest competition that renews itself fairly quickly.Know also that Everest is already proposed for OEMs to be validated.The complete list Indilix Everest features:
