IBM Storage & SDISSDs – Flash Pretending To Be Spinning Disk

When Reading or Writing to the HDD, instructions must be sent which tell the drive head where it needs to move with respect to Data Tracks, Cylinders and Sectors.

When Reading or Writing to an SSD, in spite of not having any moving parts, instructions must be sent which tell the non-existent drive head where it needs to move with respect to Data Tracks, Cylinders and Sectors. This is because it must follow the same communications protocol as the HDD it is mimicking.

ENERGY STAR certified products

IBM has a long history with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) ENERGY STAR® program. ENERGY STAR is a voluntary program which sets energy efficiency and labeling requirements for different product types to identify and promote energy-efficient products.

One of IBM's product energy efficiency goals is to certify at least two-thirds of eligible new server products and at least one storage product in each of three categories to the U.S. EPA's ENERGY STAR program criteria.

As of May 2019, IBM had three Power Systems servers and eight storage products certified to the ENERGY STAR requirements. The Power Systems servers meet the EPA's requirements for power-supply efficiency, idle power limits or power management capability, and Standard Performance Evaluation Corporation (SPEC) Server Efficiency Rating Tool (SERT) metric data reporting. The storage products meet requirements for power-supply efficiency and reporting of the Storage Networking Industry Association Emerald Power Efficiency Measurement Specification results.

All ENERGY STAR certified IBM FlashSystem® storage products and certified IBM server products also have 80 PLUS Platinum certified power supplies.
