Solid State Disk with reading speed up to 500MB per second? How about copy a 2TB drive within an hour and it could be used non-stop for five consecutive years without worry of slowing down the performance! Great isn’t it?

Pliant Technology has their 3.5-inch enterprise SSD that fit all above description. The SSD could read at speeds up to 500 megabytes per seconds and write 320 megabytes per second.

Apparently the mojo behind the Lightning EFD LS (and the slightly slower, 2.5-inch EFD LB) is that it uses a proprietary ASIC design that relies on a SCSI data transfer interface, as opposed to the more common Fibre Channel interface. As a result they’re currently able to achieve speeds of 6 gigabits per second (vs. the 4 Gb/s that Fibre Channel provides).

This SSD is available for order, but no independent benchmark tests carried out yet, so, the accuracy of those speed claims are not yet a proven figures.
