The expansion is definitely warranted, given that OCZ saw solid growth last quarter: SSD unit sales ramped from an average of 15,000 units per month in Q1 2010 to over 54,000 units in August. Furthermore, OCZ supports a complete spectrum of interfaces including SATA, SAS, Fibre Channel, PCI-Express, USB 3.0, and the proprietary High-Speed Data Link (HSDL) introduced earlier this month, so the company is anticipating a growing demand of its current and future SSDs in both the consumer and enterprise markets.
"As our SSD revenues continue to expand, we are happy to announce our new state-of-the-art manufacturing facility in Taipei, Taiwan," Ryan Petersen, OCZ CEO, said in a statement. "Our new 20 000 square foot facility was set up in response to increased demand from OEMs for our enterprise solid state drive products and significantly increases our monthly SSD capacity."
Awesome! I love OCZ's SSD's, hopefully this will help in pushing prices down as well.
I thought it was only Japan that dealt in square Feet? Geisha knowledge req.
production increased by 180% but sales up 200% plus ...
Lower prices please.
Hopefully, the abundance of OCZ's SSD's might lead to an increase in competition, resulting in lower SSD-prices. One can merely wish that SSD's will become mainstream before 2011...
Lower prices please.
