Innovator of New Technology: Mtron SSD PRO 7000 Series

Experience the Difference with Mtron

Mtron Perspective

Companies are faced with increasingly complex business environments that require processing higher capacity transactions more quickly.

Investments are being made in the IT infrastructure to quickly adapt to the rapidly changing environment and take proactive roles in the marketplace. Even there have been remarkable developments in systems such as servers and storages, developers have reached limitations due to the fundamental problems associated with the hard disk. A new flash memory technology referred to as SSD(Solid State Drive) is now at the center of attention as the mans to provide the solution.

Mtron has developed proprietary technologies to implement the world’s finest controller, which is the key to the SSD. Based on the controller technology, Mtron has developed and introduced various SSD products and is the leader of the global SSD market.

Mtron SSD PRO

IT Infrastructure – Beginning of Innovation.

Mtron SSD(Solid State Drive) PRO is a high performance flash memory storage device for avoiding system bottlenecks often experienced while using conventional disk drives. Mtron SSD PRO can immediately replace your hard disk without any additional software installation. Because of its solid state design it is free of mechanical movements, thus enhancing reliability while also eliminating unnecessary seek time delays and expediting random data access. Because Mtron SSD PRO is also a semiconductor device consisting of flash memory, it can withstand substantial external shocks and vibrations and offers an MTBF(Mean Time Between Failure) greater than one million hours. With its powerful performance and high reliability, Mtron SSD PRO is an optimal storage device for enterprise and IT infrastructure applications.

Case Study for Mtron SSD Server System Application

A major portal site in Korea, which had been operating 1,000 HDD-based servers, introduced Mtron SSD to not only realize higher performance but reduce the number of servers to less than 400. This allowed them to save costs in terms of servers and hardware as well as other aspects including license purchase fees for OS-related applications and maintenance costs.
