STEC has unveiled CellCare and Secure Array of Flash Element (S.A.F.E.) technologies that enable its MLC-based Solid State Drives (SSDs) to enhance write endurance and data reliability.

The implementation of the new technologies enable meet 5-year enterprise endurance threshold and eliminates data integrity issues, including failures and data loss, on STEC’s MLC-based SSDs, the firm said.

STEC claimed that its CellCare technology substantially reduces the cost of SSD implementation in the enterprise by enabling SSDs to use lower cost MLC Flash components.

The new MLC-based SSDs utilising S.A.F.E. technology are designed to eliminate all failures associated with MLC Flash, the company said.

STEC president and CTO Mark Moshayedi said that the company’s new STEC CellCare and S.A.F.E. technologies provide the needed peace of mind for implementing MLC-based SSD offerings, while reducing the total cost of ownership.
