Microsoft’s new Windows 7 is the first operating system to detect the presence of a solid state drive (SSD) in a system and then optimize the OS to boost performance and endurance of the drive’s NAND flash memory blocks.
I had a chance to sit down with Micron’s Matthias Buchner, director of segment marketing for Micron’s DRAM product group, to talk about the launch of Windows 7, the memory impact and other trends in the industry.
We’re pretty passionate around here about engineering SSDs that get the highest performance possible. Part of that engineering effort is within the devices themselves—ensuring that our SSDs live up to the potential that our NAND flash offers. That said, there are many variables outside of the SSD that impact performance—like the operating system or [...]
