OWC Mercury Enterprise Pro 6G SSD Released

by Brian Beeler

OWC has announced the Enterprise Pro 6G SSD which is designed for use in server, SMB and production studio use. The Enterprise Pro 6G will be available by the end of Q1 2012 and will ship in 50GB, 100GB, 200GB and 400GB capacities. The SSDs are powered by SandForce SF-2500 processors and enterprise-grade synchronous Toggle eMLC NAND and use a SATA 6Gb/s interface. Perhaps the biggest highlight of all though is the record-shattering sever year warranty offered by OWC on these drives.
