IBM United States Hardware Announcement 111-051, dated March 1, 2011 New generation of High IOPS Adapters in capacities ranging from 320GB to 1.28TB continues to offer ultrahigh-performance storage based on solid-state device technology for IBM System x and BladeCenter Table of contents 1 Overview 7 Publications 2 Key prerequisites 8 Technical information 2 Planned availability date 12 Terms and conditions 2 Description 13 Pricing 3 Product number At a glance These SSD-based high-performance server-class storage adapters can provide the performance required for extensive computations while utilizing a reduced storage footprint. Features: Up to 1.28TB of SSD storage in a standard PCIe adapter: Significantly lower power and cooling costs, low management overhead, smaller storage footprint in the data center, and a much greener storage solution An alternative to SSD-based hard drives: Accelerates applications, improves response times, and boosts efficiency IBM branding: A single point of serviceability and an enterprise-grade warranty to enable interoperability with a variety of IBM and partner products The ability to do more with less during these tough economic times: Lower operational expenditure (OPEX) and capital expenditure (CAPEX) in applications that require high IOPS compared to solutions that use a larger number of HDD and SSD devices to achieve equivalent IOPS Overview 320GB SLC TM, 640GB SLC Duo, 640GB MLC, and 1.28TB MLC Duo High IOPS Adapters for IBM System x and BladeCenter come with many of the benefits of standard storage in addition to enterprise-class high performance of up to 1000,000 sustained IOPS. These adapters are designed primarily for performance-hungry servers and computing appliances while providing the added benefits of lower power and cooling costs, low management overhead, and smaller storage footprints. Based on standard PCIe architecture coupled with silicon-based NAND clustering storage technology, the High IOPS Adapters are optimized for System x racks and can be deployed in blades via the PCIe expansion units. These scalable designs come with both Single Level Cell (SLC) and MultiLevel Cell (MLC) technologies in standard PCIe form factors. While MLC offers a cost-effective alternative, SLC provides over 12X more endurance and up to 30% better performance over MLC. These adapters use NAND flash memory as the basic building block of solidstate storage and contain no moving parts, thus they are less sensitive to issues associated with vibration, noise, and mechanical failure. These adapters are built as IBM United States Hardware Announcement 111-051 IBM is a registered trademark of International Business Machines Corporation 1

block devices on a PCIe bus with advanced wear-leveling, ECC, and N+1 chip-level redundancy providing unparalleled reliability and efficiency. Whether enabling high-performance computing or reducing the storage footprint, IBM offers High IOPS Adapters to meet your computational requirements. These adapters are compatible with a wide variety of System x servers. The new adapters are: 320GB High IOPS SLC Adapter for IBM System x (81Y4535) 640GB High IOPS SLC Duo Adapter for IBM System x (81Y4539) 640GB High IOPS MLC Adapter for IBM System x (81Y4531) 1.28TB High IOPS MLC Duo Adapter for IBM System x (81Y4527) They offer: Standard PCIe design High reliability Advanced wear-leveling ECC used for maximum efficiency N+1 chip-level redundancy High endurance with Single Level Cell (SLC) technology High-capacity design with MultiLevel Cell (MLC) technology Warranty: Three-year limited warranty 1. 1 For information on the IBM Statement of Limited Warranty, visit http://www-947.ibm.com/support/entry/portal/wlup Alternatively, this information is available through your IBM representative or reseller. Copies are available upon request. With respect to on-site service, IBM sends a technician after attempting to diagnose and resolve the problem remotely. Key prerequisites These SSD PCIe Adapters can be used on supported System x and BladeCenter servers with an available PCI Express expansion slot. Planned availability date May 18, 2011 320GB High IOPS SLC Adapter (81Y4535) 640GB High IOPS SLC Duo Adapter (81Y4539) 640GB High IOPS MLC Adapter (81Y4531) 1.28TB High IOPS MLC Duo Adapter (81Y4527) Description Ideal for businesses requiring high-performance storage without sacrificing capacity, these adapters provide an opportunity to lower power and cooling costs while simplifying management overhead and reducing the overall storage footprint.

IBM Electronic Services IBM has transformed its delivery of hardware and software support services to help you achieve higher system availability. Electronic Services is a web-enabled solution that offers an exclusive, no-additional-charge enhancement to the service and support available for IBM servers. These services are designed to provide the opportunity for greater system availability with faster problem resolution and preemptive monitoring. Electronic Services comprises two separate, but complementary, elements: Electronic Services news page and Electronic Services Agent. The Electronic Services news page is a single Internet entry point that replaces the multiple entry points traditionally used to access IBM Internet services and support. The news page enables you to gain easier access to IBM resources for assistance in resolving technical problems. The Electronic Service Agent TM is no-additional-charge software that resides on your server. It monitors events and transmits system inventory information to IBM on a periodic, client-defined timetable. The Electronic Service Agent automatically reports hardware problems to IBM. Early knowledge about potential problems enables IBM to deliver proactive service that may result in higher system availability and performance. In addition, information collected through the Service Agent is made available to IBM service support representatives when they help answer your questions or diagnose problems. Installation and use of IBM Electronic Service Agent for problem reporting enables IBM to provide better support and service for your IBM server.
