Technology Overview | SSD Benefits | Solid State Drive vs. Hard Disk Drive
Imation Solid State Drives powered by Mtron use industry-leading solid state storage and controller technology
to provide an ideal solution for drive-intensive applications. An Imation Solid State Drive (SSD) emulates a hard
disk drive (HDD), but has no motors or moving parts, providing faster and more reliable data storage than
traditional HDDs and with reduced heat and noise generation.
Compared to a HDD, an Imation SSD powered by Mtron delivers improved read/write performance, reduces overall
power consumption and enhances lifetime reliability, making it ideal for high-performance, drive-intensive
applications.
Some applications where Imation SSDs powered by Mtron would be appropriate include:
- Web servers
- Network appliances
- Database servers
- Storage arrays (RAID)
- Custom system builders
- High-end PC workstations
