HGST Enterprise Storage Experience 
HGST leverages decades of proven enterprise storage expertise in Serial Attached SCSI (SAS)
design reliability, firmware, customer qualification and system integration to the new
Ultrastar™ SSD1000MR solid-state drive (SSD) family. The synergistic relationship between
HGST’s new throughput-enhancing SSDs and traditional HDDs provides cost effective,
end-to-end enterprise-class storage solutions, delivering reliability, compatibility, capacity,
cost and system performance. This combination makes HGST a leading HDD/SSD provider
with the experience and technology needed to meet escalating reliability, endurance, and
performance in the most demanding enterprise environments.
Maximum Performance, Reliability, and Endurance
The new Ultrastar SSD1000MR delivers high sequential throughput, up to 1200MB/s read
and 700MB/s write (12Gb SAS). The Ultrastar SSD1000MR also delivers up to 145,000 read
and 20,000 write IOPS, reaching speeds >100 times faster than HDDs and double the speed
of current 6Gb SSDs, allowing rapid access to “hot” enterprise data for improved productivity
and operational efficiency. The new Ultrastar SSD1000MR family offers significant value
in terms of IOPS per Watt, while reducing total cost of ownership (TCO) through low power
consumption, efficient cooling and reduced space requirements.
The Ultrastar SSD1000MR family combines enterprise-grade MLC NAND flash memory,
advanced endurance management firmware and power loss data management techniques
to extend reliability, endurance, and sustained performance over the life of the SSD. The
Ultrastar SSD1000MR family achieves an extraordinary 0.44% annual failure rate (AFR) or
two million hour mean-time-between-failure (MTBF). The 1000GB capacity Ultrastar SSD
endures up to 3.7 Petabytes (PB) of random writes over the life of the drive - the equivalent of
writing 2.0 Terabytes (TB) per day for five years.
For complete end-to-end data protection and reliability, the Ultrastar SSD1000MR family
incorporates the T10 Data Integrity Field (DIF) standard, extended error correction code
(ECC), Exclusive-OR (XOR) parity to protect against flash die failure, parity-checked internal
data paths without an external write cache, and an exclusive power loss data management
feature that does not require supercapacitors. The Ultrastar SSD1000MR family is backed by
a five year limited warranty, or the maximum Petabytes (PB) written (based on capacity).
