RunCore shows off fast 3.5" SSD with 1TB

RunCore has recently released a 3.5-inch SSD with its maximum capacity of 1TB. This SSD is not only with a large capacity, but also supports SATA III 6GB with a fancy performance of more than 500MB/s.
 
In the current SSD market, the maximum physical size of SSD is 2.5 inch due to limited number of Flash memory chips, which also limite SSD's maximum capacity. Therefore, some SSD users had to prepare an extra large capacity HDD in order to store large amount of files. The new product of RunCore is a good solution to such occasion. The performance of this 3.5 inch SSD almost reached the limit of SATA III 6 GB, plus specially designed to increase the function of different mode selection, which is, switching the button can select correspondingly high-performance mode or data backup mode.
 
how can they do the SSDs so fast?
 
seems like they've packed 2x Sandforce 1200 controller and connected them to a RAID chip. so this trick could work, because each controller is managing 512GB and has a read / write performance of ca. 280MB/s. so theoretically the performance is nearly 580MB/s.
 
If you open the casing of the SSD, you could see that the "content" of the SSD is quite "substantial". Large size of PCB, both sides covered with flash chips, and symmetrically divided into two groups. Each flash group has a Sandforce controller, which is equivalent of two Sandforce 1200 single drive. The read and write performance of each drive can be respectively reach 285MB and 275MB. These two groups of flash chips are connected to co-work by a RAID chip which is located in between.
 
i hope, i can get a sample for a trial to see for myself the power of Runcore's new flashdisks. if you are curious about what Runcore is capable off, read my 2.5 review about their Pro V SSD here.
