ZeusIOPS® is a unique solid state drive designed to create a storage performance revolution for enterprise applications. ZeusIOPS enables storage systems to realize outstanding, sustainable Input/Outputs per second (IOPS) to relieve performance bottlenecks associated with traditional rotating media disk drives.
ZeusIOPS breathes new life into existing storage infrastructures, increases server utilization, and reduces the total cost of ownership.
ZeusIOPS eliminates the wait time for processors associated with rotating media access latency. One ZeusIOPS drive can replace multiple hard drives, eliminate the need for additional volatile DRAM, and ease the cliff-like performance drop-off in performance from DRAM to rotating media. ZeusIOPS Solid State Drive is revolutionizing the way businesses access critical data by overcoming the performance bottleneck inherent to traditional rotating media HDD storage.
 Customers are everything. Plain and simple, the faster things move in today's society the more efficient and effective the value proposition of the companies processing the data, the happier the customer.
In the world of finances, this is even more key. Do you want to lose customers due to access of data? Of course not. At the same time, you have reporting, block transfers, and other analytics that need to be completed to keep the overall corporation successful.
When it comes to multitasking all these needs, the HDD industry has finally come up dry. So how does one solve this issue? Implement SSDs. The ZeusIOPS SSD from STEC has been proven over and over again to see great success in providing customers the results they have never been able to achieve in the past.
Whether you are going to a Hockey game and need an Icee for your kids, or you are standing at an ATM waiting for that "transaction to complete", solutions based on ZeusIOPS SSDs have been shown to make customers happier with response times, lower latencies, faster recovery and even longer reliability.

2The drive saturates the IO bus
• Random Transactional Performance in excess of 120,000 IOPS sustained
• 3.5" Form Factor for drop-in replacement into existing storage systems
• Less than half the power consumption of 15K HDD's
• Sustained random or sequential large blocks transfers to 350 MB/s
• Built-in Wear Advanced Leveling
• Enabling MLC and SLC media for enterprise class performance
ZeusIOPS Solid State Drive delivers the performance
of 200 HDDs with just one drive. While hard drive access
times are measured in milliseconds, access times for ZeusIOPS are in microseconds, enabling a significant increase in
random transactional processing.
ZeusIOPS Solid State Drive uses no moving parts and is
twice as reliable as the best-in-class enterprise class
disk drives. ZeusIOPS provides a new level of reliability
for critical computing environments.
With data center storage capacity requirements increasing
50-60% per year without an end in sight, it is more important
than ever to keep volatile power and cooling requirements
in check. Without motors to spin or parts to move, ZeusIOPS consumes about a third of the power of a typical data center
disk drive and requires far less cooling. ZeusIOPS is available in a lead-free (RoHS-6) version.
The ZeusIOPS SSD drive that fits
seamlessly into existing enterprise storage infrastructures.
Because there are no drivers required, ZeusIOPS appears
to any system or RAID controller as just another drive that
can be managed by existing storage management tools; true
plug-and-play elegance.
For comparable performance requirements, a 200 hard disk
drive storage system can cost 5-6 times as much as a ZeusIOPS system because of additional up-front hardware as well as
recurring maintenance, power and cooling costs.
