OCZ Deneva 2R SSD

The OCZ Deneva 2 is an enterprise-class SSD that interfaces over SATA 6GB/s and has several different models utilizing an array of NAND. The model incorporates eMLC NAND to offer users more write cycles than standard MLC, and simultaneously it provides economics closer to MLC than the more expensive SLC. The Deneva 2 also comes in two different series to provides users flexibility in their choices. The R series includes a similar feature set to the C series but with a couple of additional features including power loss data protection and over-provisioning.The over-provisioning is geared more toward heavier write scenarios and is noticeable when users check capacity differences between the C and R models. The OCZDeneva 2 ReMLCNAND 200GB capacity drive. One more design note is that architecturally, the Deneva 2 comes in a 2.5\" form factor, but OCZ can tailor it per application.

The Deneva 2 R is a SATA based drive. SATA drives benefit from more flexible form factors and price points, though the SAS-based SSDs offer greater performance. As for performance figures on the Deneva 2 R, OCZ claims that it doubles speed compared to the previous generation. OCZ also says that Deneva 2 R\'s figures max out at 550MB/s read and 500MB/s write with up to 80,000 4K random write and 55,000 read IOPS. These numbers are quite impressive given the class.

    • Design and Build

    The OCZDeneva 2 R hasa metallic gray casing for the body. The top-side sticker labels the drive with OCZ Deneva 2 branding on a blue backdrop and also provides white space for the drive to be user-labeled. On the bottom of the drive is the Deneva 2R\'s barcode sticker with drive information.

    As with other SSDs, the side profile presents the screw holes that enable the drive to be mounted. The drive comes in a 2.5\" form factor, and the spec sheet dimensions place it near 9.5mm for standard applications. The remaining feature on the drive is its standard SATA power and data connectors on the front.

    The 200GB OCZDeneva 2 R model utilizes a SandForce SF-2582 controller and 16 NAND die in 16GB NANDpackages. This gives the SSD a total capacity200GBwhich has been over-provisioned for users. The eMLC 24nm NAND helps to increase the endurance and long-term viability of the SSD, while giving a substantial cost benefit over SLC-based SSDs.
