As data sets grow, the need for more efficient and higher capacity storage is imperative. Learn how Solidigm is planning to address higher capacity, higher performance and greater overall efficiency with the current and future QLC SSDs. Presented by Yuyang Sun, Senior Product Marketing Manager for QLC Products at Solidigm, this presentation discusses the evolution and potential of QLC (Quad-Level Cell) storage technology, emphasizing its advantages over traditional TLC (Triple-Level Cell) storage in terms of cost, capacity, and performance.

Sun highlighted the increasing demand for QLC SSDs in data centers, noting that QLC can significantly enhance capacity and provide a cost-effective solution for specific workloads. Solidigm’s QLC SSDs are designed to accommodate data-heavy applications, such as machine learning, with capacities ranging from 3.84 terabytes to a maximum of 61.44 terabytes. The cost-effectiveness of QLC, which stores four bits per cell compared to three bits for TLC, translates into approximately 25% savings in NAND costs, making it an appealing option for customers looking to optimize both performance and expenses.

The presentation also addressed concerns about endurance, clarifying that the drive’s performance should be viewed in the context of modern usage patterns. With most data center SSDs operating at less than one drive write per day (DWPD), QLC’s endurance rating allows it to cater to a wide range of applications without sacrificing reliability. Sun wrapped up by showcasing Solidigm’s fourth-generation QLC portfolio, which showcases significant advancements in performance and efficiency over previous iterations and competitive technologies, reinforcing the company’s commitment to delivering high-capacity, efficient storage solutions for data centers.

Presented by Yuyang Sun, Senior Product Marketing Manager, QLC Products, Solidigm.
