Marvell releases the qlc driver offering 670,000 iops

QLC is the next big step in flash SSD memory, which enables increased density and lower price revision for flash-based products using this new technology.
New Marvell QLC Drivers Deliver 670, 000 IOPS and 3, 500 MB / s Speed
Intel's 660P SSDs use QLC memory and are expected to deliver 1, 800 MB / s in sequential read and up to 1, 200 MB / s in sequential write speeds with 150, 000 IOPS. All this increase in density with QLC would not mean much if a controller that unleashes its potential, for this purpose, Marvell has announced its new controllers for SSD drives with QLC.
The new controller will eventually replace the NVMe 1.1 Eldora (88SS1093) used in some popular SSDs, such as Plextor's M9Pe.
Marvell's new controller was able to achieve an impressive 670, 000 IOPS and 3, 500 MB / s in one of the demos, although there is no information on the density of the drive that was used. Although it is not representative of the final performance of the QLC memory and its controller, it is good to know the first tests are showing impressive performance.
The most interesting thing about this technology will be the lowering of the costs of the SSD drives. Currently the only impediment for SSD drives to replace traditional hard drives are their costs for Gigabit. We believe that over the years this gap will become shorter and shorter and we will have larger drives at prices that are close to that of a hard drive, in addition to the consequent increase in speed.
