Samsung starts cranking out 512GB eUFS storage

500 ish GB of storage in one chip is a great thing for enterprise IT and IOT

Getting away from talks about gaming and cars, and back to the article.

IoT and Edge controllers for IoT need storage for sensor data, and if the local CPU can do some filtering on the data it can reduce WAN impacts of monitoring.

What we need to know is that is the wear leveling of the chip. If the chip is replaceable then if it wears out (max writes to a significant number of cells to require replacement) then this is a great idea, if this is only usable in a fixed configuration at manufacturing then the impact to Enterprises, remote IoT devices, and autonomous vehicles could result in catastrophic events where write events causes a design issue.

A value that was not presented what the power consumption/heat generation of the component and if that would cause a problem vs the existing 256 GB product.

IBM dive-bombs into all-flash array pool

Re: Why ask the competition?

I actually loved seeing someone other than myself asking the competition to comment. As I am aware of the other vendors products seeing what they choose to talk about becomes significant to me. As

The Register" allowed IBM to rebut comments I thought it was a very valuable use of my time.

The only think I with "The Register" would have done is force IBM to fully qualify the statement that their new array has which specific data services as the other vendors seem to think there are shortcomings worth pointing out which the IBM rebuttal did not specifically address.

A version of Consumer reports chart of features would have been a nice graphic to have.

IBM splits with Solaris 10 on x64

This article is out of date HP now supports Solaris 10 x64 again

As the previous post related (if you followed the link) that HP and Oracle reversed course and HP is back in the game of supporting Solaris 10 x64 on HP hardware.

I look at it this way, Oracle by letting 3rd party hardware vendors get on the HCL (Hardware Compatibility List) and offer support Oracle will at least buy it time to redesign their x86 product line.

Dell does not support Solaris 10 x64

I just met with Dell (July 2010) and they don't support Solaris 10 x64 is what I was told by our account team.
