OWC's SSD vs HDD Shootout!
OWC's A Closer Look
ROI as Fast as the Drive
By deploying Mercury Enterprise Pro 6G SSDs for an I/O-intensive task such as an Extract Transform Load (ETL) process,
an IT department can reduce data sessions involving up to 25 million records from eight hours to two hours. With six hours
of newfound data analysis, an IT staff can execute multiple sessions on the same day. That's a competitive advantage that
can be used to deliver an immediate ROI impact on the bottom line.
Double the Data Security
Highest-level security protocols are used to ensure data stored in the Mercury Enterprise Pro 6G is safe from loss, theft, or repurposing. Data is automatically stored in a highly secure AES-128 hardware double encrypted format.
Up to 90 Percent Lower Total Cost of Ownership
The Mercury Enterprise Pro 6G offers up to 90% lower TCO compared to traditional hard drives because fewer SSDs are required to achieve the same IOPS performance level that multiple hard drives provide. With fewer drives required:
- Power consumption is dramatically reduced by up to 90%
- Drive environment cooling requirements are significantly reduced
- Fewer storage racks are needed
- Data center space expansion can be delayed or even eliminated

OWC Mercury Enterprise Pro 6G SSDs can be used anywhere you can use 2.5" or 3.5" (with adapter) SATA Revision 1.0, 2.0, or 3.0 drives.

- 1GB = 1,000,000,000 bytes. Total accessible capacity varies depending upon operating environment (typically 5-10% less). The actual total capacity will depend on your own defined file settings/preferences.
- In terms of standard gigabytes, 1GiB ≈ 1.074GB and refers to the actual formatted capacity of shown under Mac OS 10.5 or earlier and Microsoft Windows OS.
- Specific application environments such as temperature and duty cycle will affect the overall reliability.
- Specifications provided by SandForce.
- Temperature reporting is currently an unsupported feature because due to the operating characteristics of SSDs, it is highly unlikely one would ever exceed an OWC Mercury SSD's stated operating temperature ceiling of 158F/70C. However, we are looking into supporting this feature in the future via a firmware update. Firmware updates can be found here: http://eshop.macsales.com/tech_center/OWC/SSD.
