Dramatically Accelerate Application Performance

Enabling IT organizations to realize unprecedented gains in application performance, the Seagate® X8 Accelerator, powered by Virident, delivers memory-class performance with storage-class capacity – plus enterprise reliability, availability, and data integrity – all in a low-profile PCIe card.

BEST-FIT APPLICATIONS:

- Virtualized desktop infrastructures (VDI)
- Oracle enterprise server applications
- MySQL applications
- Microsoft SQL Server applications
- VMware applications

Unprecedented Enterprise Application Performance

The X8 Accelerator provides fast, consistent performance, which is closer to DRAM performance than storage even when the device is full. Also, the X8 Accelerator PCIe:
- Delivers up to 2x higher performance than the closest competitor
- Provides up to 1.1 million IOPS with access latencies under 20μs
- Accelerates performance under the most I/O intensive workloads, enterprise applications and variable dataset sizes

PCIe Card Scalable for Growth

Perfect for space-constrained environments, the X8 Accelerator delivers high capacity in the smallest available footprint.

- Accommodates data intensive applications with up to 2.2TB user capacity
- Fits in nearly all servers with a small universal form factor using small half-length x half-height
- Ensures easy scalability using a single storage image (expandable in increments up to 2.2TB)

Simplified Storage Management

Storage management can be complex. The X8 Accelerator helps make storage management easier while reducing IT costs.
