Mangstor Accelerates Enterprise NVMe Storage Devices with ST-MRAM From Everspin


CHANDLER, Ariz. --(Business Wire)--

Everspin Technologies, Inc, the world's leading developer and manufacturer of MRAM worldwide, and Mangstor, Inc, a leading supplier of high performance Non-Volatile Memory Express (NVMe) Solid State Storage Solutions, today disclosed how the EMD3D064M ST-MRAM from Everspin offers compelling benefits in Mangstor's recently introduced MX6000 family of High Performance NVMe Intelligent Storage Devices designed to accelerate enterprise and cloud workloads.

Designed for storage and memory markets, Everspin's EMD3D064M 64Mb DDR3 ST-MRAM combines the speed and endurance of DRAM with the non-volatility of Flash. It is the world's first commercially-available Spin Torque MRAM and the first product in Everspin's roadmap of ST-MRAM solutions that meets tomorrow's storage system requirements. ST-MRAM from Everspin gives designers of high performance storage systems the ability to achieve ultra low latency, increase reliability with high cycling endurance, and protect data in the event of power loss.

"Everspin's ST-MRAM allows Mangstor to buffer data writes to NAND Flash, significantly reducing write data latency while protecting against unexpected power loss," said Paul Prince, CTO of Mangstor. "The ST-MRAM provides high performance caching of critical data during operation resulting in faster device start times. Everspin's ST-MRAM also provides increased sstem reliability when recovering from unplanned shutdowns during power failures because ST-MRAM eliminates the need for super capacitors."



"With today's announcement, Mangstor is shaking up the traditional storage markets through new levels of data efficiency, integrity, and performance," said Phill LoPresti, President and CEO of Everspin Technologies, Inc. "We are excited to launch production of ST-MRAM for Mangstor's high performance PCI (News - Alert)-Express NVMe intelligent Storage Solutions based on enterprise MLC NAND Flash and ST-MRAM Technology."

Mangstor will demonstrate the MX6000 family of Intelligent Storage Devices utilizing the Everspin EMD3D064M ST-MRAM at the Flash Memory Summit, August 5-7, 2014, in Santa Clara, California.
