Abstract: Solid State Drives (SSDs) enable dramatically higher throughput and lower response times, providing the potential to significantly lower operational costs in the data center. IBM recently announced the IBM System Storage DS8000 Turbo series with Solid State Drives (SSDs).
This paper will discuss the advantages of SSD, highlight SSD best practices, provide an assessment of performance using DS8000s with SSD, and demonstrate energy, cooling, and space savings with SSD.
