Based on Western Digital 64-layer 3D NAND, the SanDisk X600 3D NAND SATA SSD delivers high performance, high capacity, and superior endurance. It achieves this while expending up to 25% less power than the previous generations of SATA SSDs.
The X600 3D NAND SATA SSD combines Western Digital's state-of-the-art 64-layer 3D NAND technology with SanDisk's proven SSD platform. It also incorporates nCache 2.0, a tiered caching technology designed to improve responsiveness for corporate and consumer workloads. nCache 2.0 uses a combination of both SLC (single level cell) and TLC flash blocks to improve endurance, increase efficiency, and boost performance. Writing data first to the SLC cache reduces write amplification on the TLC blocks.
The X600 3D NAND SATA SSD is optimized for the demanding power management requirements of ultra-thin and small-form-factor products. It features Device Sleep (DEVSLP), more frequent use of low-power modes, and faster transitions between various power modes. Also included for superior error recovery, DataGuard Client provides a robust on-the-fly error handling technology.
