“SSDs are being rapidly adopted as the preferred storage option
across the entire spectrum of the PC marketplace,” said Tarun
Loomba, vice president and general manager of Client Platform
Solutions, SanDisk. “In addition to the performance and durability
benefits that SSDs provide, the SanDisk Z410 SSD delivers storage
that is ample for most consumers and the right size for typical
corporate users. The Z410 is an important addition to our overall
SSD portfolio, as our customers require a complete range of storage
options, from home/office PCs to the latest high-performance,
ultra-thin laptops.”
SLC Cache Means a Better Computing Experience
Built on the successful SanDisk Z400s SSD platform, the Z410 SSD
features an SLC cache--a combination of SLC and TLC blocks to
maximize read and write speeds. This means PC users can expect very
short start-up and application loading, making the Z410 ideal for
multi-tasking and typical PC workloads such as home/office
productivity, web browsing, email, casual gaming and audio/video
entertainment.
"The price gap between SSDs and legacy HDD storage is
narrowing," said Jeff Janukowicz, research vice president for Solid
State Drive and Enabling Technologies at IDC. "Coupled with the
inherent performance and reliability benefits, it is helping to
propel SSD adoption into the mainstream PC market."
Build Durable, Reliable Systems with Ample Storage
Capacity
With up to 480GB of capacity, the Z410 is ideal for
manufacturers looking to design durable, energy-efficient computing
platforms. Validated for several top OEM platforms, the Z410 is
designed to consistently deliver high endurance and reliability for
typical corporate, educational and home applications. The Z410 SSD
boasts up to 1.75M hours Mean Time To Failure (MTTF), making it an
extremely reliable option for PC manufacturers and ultimately for
consumers.1 Featuring one of the lowest power draws of any SSD in
the industry, the Z410 consumes less power during active use, as
well as during slumber and low-power modes.
The SanDisk Z410 SSD is currently shipping in 2.5’’ (7mm) form
factor at 120GB, 240GB and 480GB capacities, and includes a 3-year
warranty. For more information about the SanDisk Z410 SSD, please
