AMD and The Solid-State Drive Market


The solid-state drive market has AMD entering it again with Radeon drives. These Radeon drives are for laptops and desktops. With a very low price for the 120GB, in US dollars it comes out to be only $40.99. They happen to be compatible with the SATA III 6GB interface, it is also able to plug into a computer’s 2.5-inch hard drive slot.


The only way you can purchase this product is through Amazon and the way it is listed is by “AMD Memory R3.” There are two different sizes and prices. They can also be used in PCs with chips such as Intel or AMD. There was no clues given that the company was going to launch this product. Just like its other products It could give it that push to come up with new products down the line.


“The sequential read speed for the SSDs is between 510MBps (megabytes per second) and 520MBps. The sequential write speed is 360MBps for the 120GB drive and 450MBps for the 960GB drive.”

On the 120 GB drive the random read speed is 57,400 IOPS which means input-output per second, and 79,520 IOPS on the 960 GB drive. The company that actually made the SSDs is called Galt. They are also responsible for support. The companies that are now in competition with AMD is now competing with Intel, SanDisk, and Samsung in the SSD market. The way that the SSD can read and write speeds varies depending on manufacturing technology, and controller on the drives and the cell structure,. Although it will make the drive more reliable, the controller could slow it down as well.
