"Texas Memory Systems Introduces the RamSan-710: The Best 1U Storage Ever"
 The RamSan-710 provides 5 GB/s bandwidth with 5 TB of SLC Flash storage
 in a small 1U footprint that minimizes power and cooling costs.

  "... to introduce its second RamSan Series-7 system: the 1U rackmount
   RamSan-710. Powered by the new Series-7 Flash Controller with 32nm
   SLC Flash from Toshiba, the RamSan-710 is the fastest (5 GB/s) 1U
   shared storage system. It is easy to install, with four 8-Gb Fibre
   Channel or QDR InfiniBand ports. The RamSan-710 turbocharges
   datacenters with minimal impact on power and space.



   The Series-7 Flash Controller that powers the RamSan-710 is based
   on high-performance Xilinx FPGAs and an embedded PowerPC core. It
   manages Flash, corrects faults, tracks performance, and logs
   operational data. Incorporating patented Variable Stripe RAID (VSR)
   technology, standard chip-level RAID, and an advanced ECC algorithm,
   the Series-7 Flash Controller provides the RamSan-710 with an
   expected lifespan of 10 years. The Series-7 Flash Controller is
   exclusively available in the RamSan-710 and other Texas Memory
   Systems Series-7 products."
.....
  "The RamSan-710 includes 21 Flash boards, 2 high-bandwidth I/O
   modules (2 ports each), 1 management Ethernet port, and a fast
   cross-bar switch that connects everything for smooth data flow
   through the system. These components combine to optimize the
   RamSan-710 bandwidth, IOPS, latency, and reliability."

  "Flash translation tables are held in battery-backed RAM that is
   written to Flash in the event of power loss, so users don't have to
   waste time waiting for indexes to rebuild when power is reconnected."
