Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd, a global leader in advanced semiconductor technology solutions, today announced its fourth generation green memory solution at the annual Memory Solution CIO Forum at the Shilla hotel, Seoul, Korea. Designed to achieve superior system level performances, the new solution introduces a combination of its advanced 20 nanometer (nm) class DDR3 and 20 nm-class SSDs based on high-performance SATA 6.0 Gb/s and SAS interfaces respectively.

The new green memory solution addresses the benefits of green memory for next-generation enterprise servers, server storage solutions and personal computing solutions, broadening the benefits of green memory solutions even further throughout the IT industry. The reduced costs and optimized IT expenditure efficiencies are well in-line with the creating shared value (CSV) framework.

In his keynote, Wanhoon Hong, executive vice president of Memory sales and marketing, Device Solutions, Samsung Electronics, noted, "With the introduction of Samsung's advanced green memory solutions, the shared value created through the technology advances are adopted to PC platforms enhancing consumer experience and thus contributing to the expansion of an eco-friendly IT industry."

He added that, "Samsung will continue to proactively respond to diverse consumer needs with the timely development of differentiated next-generation green memory devices and solutions, and thus reinforce market leadership that adds to the evolving market of advanced premium memory solutions."

The performance benefits were achieved by incorporating Samsung's advanced 20 nm-class DDR3 technology and its powerful SSD solutions; the SATA 6.0 Gb/s interface SM843 for server systems and the SAS interface SM1625 for enterprise storage.

In comparison with a datacenter utilizing 40 nm-class DRAM and HDD, the overall performance rises six-fold while power consumption decreases by 20 percent on server systems and 60 percent on storage systems.
