As the biggest producer of NAND flash in the world, Samsung has been in the enterprise SSD space for a very long time, but unless you?re one of Samsung's big partners, you probably had no idea.

Even as a SSD reviewer, I was quite stunned when I recently attended the Samsung SSD Global Summit when they showed off a vast selection of enterprise SSDs, most of which I hadn't even heard of, yet would probably do well in the retail market. Of course, I?m sure Samsung thought the same thing as earlier this year, Samsung took a big leap forward into the retail enterprise SSD space by introducing their first ever enterprise SSD designed for the channel, the Samsung 845DC EVO.
