Why OWC SSD?
- One of the fastest Internal SATA 2.5" SSD with available data rates up to 285MB/s.
- SandForce DuraClass™ technology with Ultra-efficient Block Management & Wear Leveling offers highest endurance, performance, and power efficiency in a SATA SSD.
- SandForce® Processor maximizes read and write performance to greatly extend the endurance and overall reliability of the drive.
- Up to 100X greater data protection than what the highest rated enterprise class conventional hard disk drive (HDD) provides.
- Best in class error correction (ECC) and SandForce RAISE™ (Redundant Array of Independent Silicon Elements) technology provides RAID like data protection and reliability without loss of transfer speed due to parity.
- Intelligent "recycling" for advanced free space management
- Highly secure… all data automatically stored in AES-128 encrypted format.
- Designed and built in the U.S. from domestic and imported parts
Over Provisioning & Wear Management Explained
Some of the drive space in OWC SSDs are allocated for RAISE – which provides real time data redundancy, ECC Error Correction, and reserve cell space.
Example: An OWC Pro SSD that's 240GB in size with 7% over-provisioning is actually a 256GB drive with 7% allocated for data management, and to maintain the drive's high-performance level.
Unlike most SSDs on the market today, the Mercury Pro family uses advanced
DuraWrite™ wear-leveling and block management technologies to keep Read/Write
performance at peak while others see performance fall.
