The Pliant Lightning EFD product family is based on an advanced controller design and software architecture that delivers dramatic I/O performance and reliability improvements over existing solid state drive (SSD) technology, and exponentially higher performance and lower energy consumption than multiple traditional high-performance hard drives and the current generation of SSDs. By replacing many high RPM HDDs with a few Lightning EFDs, storage solutions deliver significant cost savings, improved performance flexibility, and substantially reduced energy and space requirements. In addition, Lightning EFDs fit into existing infrastructures without requiring changes to current storage management solutions.
The Lightning family of EFDs is available in 3.5-inch and 2.5-inch standard form factors, capacities from 150GB to 300GB and all with Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) interface to fit a range of storage and server systems requirements. Pliant Technology provides two sizes and three models of EFDs:
| Pliant Lightning Family | |||
| Model | Capacity | Form Factor | Interface |
| LS 300 | 300 GB | 3.5 inch | SAS |
| LS 150 | 150 GB | 3.5 inch | SAS |
