This white paper will discuss the concepts of the enterprise workspace, and how an SSD’s performance can be impacted by these environments. It will also present data from 3 different competitive SATA SSD devices in a true enterprise working environment run over a prolonged period of time to demonstrate how an SSD that is used under an enterprise workload can be affected by the use environment. Then we will recommend testing techniques for SSD devices so that you can gauge their true behavior and performance profile under enterprise level operating conditions.
