QLC Flash for the Data Center
Seeking to enable flash storage solutions to store more and power more, storage suppliers are always searching for methods to insert more bits and bytes into their flash system
Quad-level cell drives use an electrical charge to determine whether a cell is a “0” or a “1,” and there are billions of these kinds of cells on a silicon substrate, which means these flash drives can store terabytes of information.
Initially, flash technology sought to store a single bit in each cell, referred to as single-level cell (SLC) technology
Not long after the advent of this technology, storage suppliers realized they could store more than one state by using a range of voltages and thus brought about the beginning of multiple-level cell flash technology. The term “quad-level cell” refers to flash technology geared to storing four bits of data using 16 different states, which results in 16 different voltages.
Compared to TLC (triple-level cell) equivalents, this QLC Flash solution stores up to 33% more data in every memory cell for a dense, high-performing solution.
