New Delhi : Seagate announced a series of SPC-1C and SPC-2C. It helps system integrators estimate storage component performance.

The SPC-1C and SPC-2C benchmarks allow storage component vendors such as Seagate to produce audited benchmark results using the same workloads as SPC-1 and SPC-2, but at a component level, ranging from a single storage device to a small subsystem of 24 devices or less.

"The SPC congratulates Seagate on taking a leadership role in releasing the first set of SPC-1C and SPC-2C benchmark results. As IT budgets face continued constraint, but application client demands continue to soar, SPC-1C and SPC-2C tests will undoubtedly become increasingly important to the entire industry," said Walter E Baker, Administrator and Auditor, Storage Performance Council (SPC).

"We're especially proud to lead the industry with these new, audited SPC component benchmark results because they clearly show that Seagate's SAS storage solutions are an ideal pathway to best deliver and serve the needs of IT professionals who may be evaluating SAS vs SATA in their own enterprise storage environments," said Sherman Black, Sr VP-Marketing and Strategy, Core Products Group. "Delivering continued value and easing integration for our customers is critical, and no company is more focused than Seagate on ensuring that IT professionals will obtain that as well as industry-leading I/O performance, reliability, and data integrity for the life of their storage system," he added.
