Innodisk Announces Launch of Edge AI SSDs
TAIPEI, July 29, 2022 /PRNewswire-AsiaNet/ --

Innodisk, a global leader in industrial-grade storage and embedded peripherals, 
is pushing the development of edge AI technology, and in doing so has 
officially launched a new edge computing solid-state drive (SSD) product line, 
consisting of the 2.5" SATA 
3TS6-P<https://www.innodisk.com/en/products/flash-storage/ssd/25-sata-ssd-3ts6-p
>, 3TS9-P and M.2 (P80) 
4TS2-P<https://www.innodisk.com/en/products/flash-storage/m2-sata/m2-p80-4ts2-p>
 drives. Innodisk's new edge AI SSDs feature low latency, high DWPD (drive 
writes per day), and large capacities. In addition, the included 
iCell<https://www.innodisk.com/en/technology/stability/icell-technology> and 
AES<https://www.innodisk.com/en/technology/security> technologies protect data 
from losses and breaches. Aiming at smart retail, smart city, smart fleet 
management, and NAS network storage applications, Innodisk is providing high 
speeds, reliability, and industrial-grade high quality to respond to the rising 
market needs.

Research suggests that the edge data center market is expected to reach a 
compound annual growth rate of 24.58% between 2020 and 2028. With the rapid 
development of AI, IoT, and 5G, data utilization has shifted from cloud to edge 
applications, driving the demand for edge servers and edge data centers. 
Innodisk is ready to roll out edge server market solutions and open up new 
business opportunities.

Edge AI SSDs inside edge servers are required to process data at high speeds at 
the source, instead of sending all data back to a central data center, thus 
improving latency and reducing cost. As an example, smart street lights and 
traffic monitoring units rely on the SSD to provide high-speed read/write, a 
large capacity, and low-latency to process data in real time, and the same can 
be said for edge data centers. With the series reaching 6.4TB, these new SSDs 
are sure to disrupt the edge storage market and improve experiences for end 
users.

CC Wu, GM of Innodisk's Flash Division, pointed out that Innodisk has already 
actively started focusing on applications for the fast-growing 5G and AI 
fields. This new product line integrates Innodisk's R&D capabilities in 
software, hardware, and firmware. With the introduction of specialized SSDs 
that combine the advantages of industrial SSDs with the characteristics of data 
center SSDs, Innodisk hopes to seize edge computing business opportunities and 
meet the needs of the ever-growing sector.
