Atos Origin Pilot Proves That IntelSolid State Drives Are More Than a Flash in the Pan

Atos Origin wanted to assess whether SSDs were more than a nice-to-have technology. The company wanted to establish both total cost of ownership and return on investment for SSDs. Atos Origin aimed to measure SSDs against traditional hard disk drives (HDDs). The company launched a three-month pilot with laptops using Intel X25 - M 80GB High-Performance Solid-State Drive. The pilot measured the performance of Intel SSDs against existing Atos Origin laptops that used HDDs.
