What is New?              
We are pleased to announce the introduction of the new Fusion-IO ioDrive2 Solid State Storage Cards:      
785GB ioDrive2      
1.21TB ioDrive2      
2.41TB ioDrive2 Duo      
       
A flash based extension of the server memory hierarchy, this new memory tier uses Solid State Storage (flash memory) to store your data.      
       
Target Customers      
Transaction Processing      
Application Server      
       
Value Proposition      
Access speed is much higher in Solid State Storage compared to hard disks      
Substantial improvement in response time for i/o intensive applications      
Reduces storage latencies and eliminates i/o bottlenecks      
Accelerates applications, improves response times, and boosts efficiency
