OCZ Demonstrates Native PCIe SSDs

@ 2012/06/05
OCZ showed us its Kilimanjaro based Z-Drive R5 (native PCIe controller jointly developed with Marvell) running a 4KB random write test at Computex today. The drive was pushing as much as 800K 4KB random write IOPS, although by the time we got to the demo the drive had been dirtied to the point that it was delivering around 570K IOPS and over 2GB/s.

The R5 features sixteen PCIe 2.0 x1 Kilimanjaro controllers behind a PCIe 3.0 x8 switch, enabling tons of bandwidth.
