Seagate 1200 SSD Quick Reference Guide
Seagate 1200 SAS SSD is Easy:

1200 SAS is BEST FIT
o SATA not keeping pace with increasing performance of SSDs
o PCIe is the future, but still considerable industry standards work to be done

1200 SAS is NOW

Seagate 1200 SAS for Software Defined Storage:

Microsoft REQUIRES SAS

Seagate 1200 SAS

Bulding a storage array with best of breed solutions (Microsoft & Seagate) lower cost of
storage for the industry

SSD Can Alleviate Pain Points for:


Business Service Level Agreements (SLAs) Not Being Met, end users become frustrated with
slow systems

System Failed to Scale – As your business grows, storage systems don't adequately scale
performance.

Networked Storage Bogged Down – Just adding SSD to your SAN/NAS only provides a modest
performance improvement, the network fabric latencies remain the challenge
SSD Solves System Bottlenecks in a Fraction of the Time and Costs Instead of:

Database Re-design and Testing

Adding More Servers & Networked Storage (and all the TCO overhead involved)

Re-architecting the Software Application
