The IBM Power6 8203-E4A (#1890) 69GB SFF SAS Solid State Drive

The 69GB SFF SAS Solid State Drive (SSD) provides 69.7 GB of very high performance storage, much faster than spinning disk drives with their delays due to positioning the disk arm and waiting for the spinning disk to rotate under the arm. SSD also provide lower power utilization than spinning or hard disk drives (HDD). The drive is formatted to 69.7 GB and can be used by AIX, Linux The IBM Power6 8203-E4A (#1890) and IBM i The IBM Power6 8203-E4A (#1909). Both are identical drives, but have different feature codes to help the IBM configuration tools understand how the SSD is used.
