Naturally, using the SATA 6Gb/s interface is essential to achieving those speeds.
All three Vertex 3 models are loaded with MLC NAND (25nm) flash memory.
Our review sample has sixteen 16GB Micron 29D128G08CFAAB NAND ICs for a total capacity of 256GB.
Like the original SF-1222 controller, the second-generation SF-2281 uses data compression technology called DuraWrite.
The same Tensilica DC_570T CPU we mentioned in our Vertex 2 review is being used in the SF-2281.
Although the CPU remains the same, the compression engine has improved.
