Ethics to Practice: Analysis of 'end of life' decision making
The foregoing discussion is an incursion into nursing ethics. Implication(s) to 'omission' of information as a customary practice within our healthcare institution is reviewed in relation to best practices pertaining to 'informed consent,' and hospital policy is not definitive. Directed at the evolution of ethical decision making, the general query to the study focuses on the parameters of informed consent where individual practice is concerned.
In the nation of Canada where I am a nurse the number of situations where patient informed consent decisions might be subject to our national code of nursing ethics is many. We face critical ethical dilemmas every day, as emergency procedures and critical care interventions are standard practice. Complexity in decision making is furthered in the conduct and approaches made by international colleagues on contract in our institution by way of exchange.
The primacy of informed consent and the serious staff shortages faced by our hospitals are of course linked. The ranks of foreign nurses graciously contracting to fulfill Canada's quotas, engenders a climate of continuous knowledge sharing and training. Lessons learned from those mutually beneficial workshops and training forums is that taken for granted assumptions about internal 'policy' are, in fact, not reliable at all when legal stipulations or other mandated practice frameworks are not present.
I begin with a brief case study of a 31-year-old cancer patient, whom was admitted to our hospital with inoperable cancer of the tongue and throat, the tumor was around the carotid artery. During the course of treatment, the patient continuously engaged nursing and physician staff with queries of "how was he going to die?"
In the Canadian hospital institution environment, medical teams may chose not to forewarn patient of the process of by which he would face extreme morbidity, and ultimately mortality by bleeding to death. 'Omission' it is thought, is superior to disclosure, as it precludes informed consent to treatment, and is not at all mandatory. In the case study, exercise of our professional expertise determined that there was no benefit to the patient to tell him how he would likely die.
We are also covered by immunities. Exception is made when it is perceived that knowledge of non-consensual information, where not part of the treatment intervention, may induce more harm than benefit. The 'benefit' element of our decision served as the pivotal point to quality of life discussion amongst the Team.
In retrospect, I would argue that the decision was consistent with policy, and obviously protected the integrity of our institution from reactionary liability in case that the patient responded with misapprehension or self-abuse. After all, the patient had already been exposed to the near fatal state of his condition, and there was little we could do beyond upholding professional 'duty to a standard of reasonable care' as understood in Canada's adherence to informed consent guidelines.
Concern over the protocol of conduct within our hospital institution has never overshadowed confidence in our practice. Personal conduct is necessarily measured against evidence-based practices, and continuous training is integral to the design of our service framework. Collaboration reinforces the competency of our patient treatment model, and synergy is in essence our prospectus to fulfilling professional standards and ultimately our 'duty' to care.
Still, nurse-patient synergy is a core competency that is meant to be refined over time. Each step in the intervention process model is intended to improve methods of caring for patients, and the structural aspect to our Team management approach includes unstated rules about adherence to physician oversight in cases where an ethical dilemma might present itself. Omission was at issue when our patient pressed for details to his devolving physical condition. In instances where there is even an element of doubt, and our patients express worries about what he/she may 'feel,' we are exceptionally protective when technical discussions related to intervention and treatment occur. Distress, even where not warranted in terms of urgent condition is, however, possible wherever perceptions of ethical engagement are cloudy.
In a study on the phenomenon of moral distress in nursing practice, by Pauly et al. (2009), the researchers look at Registered nurses' perceptions of moral distress and ethical climate. In this replication study, a random sample of registered nurses was surveyed with Corley's Moral Distress Scale and Olson's Hospital Ethical Climate Survey (HECS). Outcomes to the study reveal that each HECS factor (i.e. hospitals, managers, patients, peers, and physicians) had correlation with moral distress. Recommendations were targeted at the nurse-patient relationship, where the prevalence of psychological discomfort is likely to affect procedural intervention. This includes sustained communications between nurse and patient, up to point of informed consent. In Canada, there are four (4) elements to informed consent that are also composite to any claim of physician malpractice mentioned in Table 1.
1. There must be a duty of care owed to the patient;
2. The physician must fail to meet the standard of care reasonably to be expected in the circumstances;
3. The patient must suffer harm;
4. The physician's shortcoming must be causally related to the harm.
Table 1. 'Duty to a reasonable standard of care' in Canada.
Source. CMPA 2010. Web.
In spite of the relative immunities to medical practice in Canada, there is still potential that any procedure done without consent and outside of an emergency situation might affect a practitioners licensure; hence the custom of reservation of right to not explain 'technical details' where not requested directly by patients. Learning our rights and responsibilities as nurses and physicians helps us to inform patients of their own protections and obligations to their own care. Ethical decision making constitutes the grey area in the rights to self, responsibilities to patient matrix, and a number of scholarly works in the area of nursing law in the last three decades has been dedicated to thorough going articulation of the relationship of national nursing ethics and the laws upon which they are founded.
If contemporary nursing practice is called upon to articulate ethical codes of conduct in detail, delineating 'where' the right to omit information is relevant, in doing so Canada's practitioners are also quick to acknowledge that professional obligations to patient safety may be conceded in such a rigorous policy environment. Once policy mandate overrules independent professional discernment, respective 'duty' to patient protections may not be achieved in the process. I
In Hoey (1998), review of The CMA's Health Information Privacy Code: Does it go too far? looks at a policy that the Canadian Medical Association (CMA) has adopted which severely limits the use of health information arising from the physician-patient relationship. The article cites 'ethical precepts that govern physicians' interactions with patients as rationale to the Health Information Privacy Code (HIPC). A requirement to Canada's informed consent guidelines, the Privacy Code furthers strictures by mandating modes of dissemination and exactitude in interpretation.
Opponents to the HIPC cite the 'legal and ethical development of informed consent' as the official model to healthcare institution decision making (Whitty-Rogers et al., 2009). According to arguments in support of full disclosure, a true patient-centric model may only be realized through auto-decision, and that includes self-advocacy through independent voice. The assumption to the argument sees choice as formative to participatory wellness; promoting patient dignity and quality of life. This includes communication in support of patient decision at the end of life.
The complexity of the ethical decision making framework presented by the CMA involves practitioners in the scope of policy mandated criteria to practice. When not strictly defined within official policy, or institutional protocols, the authority of 'custom' as a mechanism of consensus between professionals serves as substitute to those instruments. In O'Connor, Legare and Stacey (2003) Risk communication in practice: the contribution of decision aids an investigation of the practical and effective approaches to patient consultation used by medical professionals captures the dynamic between informed consent policy, and institutional decision making. The study's goals address decision making of select health services that stand to increase the chances of value added health outcomes, while minimizing the risk of undesired consequences in the scope of scientific options.
In general, decision support should be synergistic to individual 'patient values, personal resources, and capacity for self-determination' argue O'Connor, Legare and Stacey. Patient centred are the maxim for practice setting interactions in the Canadian healthcare institution. Knowledge sharing is power sharing. Patients want to participate in responsibility based therapeutic alliance more and more. According to O'Connor, Legare and Stacey patient inclusion in the decision model actually facilitates agreements on problems, treatment options, and the future role in decision making.
Utilizing Decision aids had comparable effect to usual care interventions on patient satisfaction, anxiety, and health outcomes that were not linked to patient values, the O'Connor, Legare and Stacey study revealed that by conveying patient participation in their own health is not only a 'right,' but a viable method for all stages of the patient journey. Patients involved in deliberation, planning, and implementation of the negotiated option had more positive…[continue]

Therefore, corporations have had to change their viewpoints and start looking at the long-term consequences of their behavior, as well as looking at the bottom line.

Ethics and Decision Making A definition of ethics broadly stated could be as that 'ethics is the science that deals with conduct in so far as this is considered as right or wrong, good or bad.' (Shapiro; Stefkovich, 2001) The word 'Ethics' has its root in the Greek language where ethos was the word used for a custom or usage for individual groups. This later moved on to mean the general
Ethics Utilitarianism is one of the most useful ethical theories. It can frame decisions made in almost every aspect of daily life, and also large-scale decisions made by organizations, enterprises, and governments. The basic principles of utilitarianism, as they were developed first by Jeremy Bentham and later by John Stuart Mill, are all based in the essential notion of utility. Utility means usefulness, but it is also related to net benefit. Utility

This is a great villa with plenty of space, actually this is a triplex. The kitchen is very well equipped. There are comfortable bedrooms with balconies and air conditioners in all of them, except the one which is for children. Terrace with small BBQ, enough for what we needed. The pool is great, not crowded at all. The villa has good location, only 5 minutes on minibus from the center of Kusadasi. We stayed here 2 weeks and had a great time. We would highly recommend BegonVilla with its friendly and helpful owners.
Très belle location: maison extrêmement bien équipée pour les enfants et joliment aménagée. Le grand plus de cette location, c'est la gentillesse et serviabilité des propriétaires qui sont attentifs, disponibles, et veillent au bien-être de leurs locataires.
C'était l'endroit parfait pour visiter les sites historiques de la région et prendre le temps de se reposer au bord de la mer. Un grand merci aux propriétaires qui ont, par ailleurs, conçu un dossier disponible dans la villa et renfermant toutes sortes d'informations pratiques et touristiques!

Lakers' Bynum vows to play Game 5
BOSTON — Andrew Bynum said the swelling in right knee is the most it has been since he initially tore the cartilage April 30, but he is confident he will be back in action Sunday night for Game 5 of the NBA Finals.
"It's a little bit frustrating, but I'm going to play on Sunday, play hard on Sunday," Bynum said after he played just 1:50 of the second half in the Lakers' Game 4 loss to Boston.
Bynum compared the swollen knee to "a basketball" and is looking forward to two days of treatment. He also said his personal doctor, David Altchek, is expected to come to Boston from his New York office to examine the knee, although Bynum doesn't expect tests to show anything further than additional fluid in it.
Bynum said the pain isn't the problem, but the swelling was so great after Game 3 and early in Game 4 that his muscles couldn't fire properly to move and jump.
About playing through the pain for the final two or three games of the season, Bynum said: "That's what I'm going to have to do. I'm prepared to do it."

APPEAL from the Circuit Court of Cook County; the Hon. GLENN
JOHNSON, Judge, presiding.
The plaintiff and the defendant were married in 1959, lived together until 1968, and were divorced in 1969. The divorce was obtained by the plaintiff on the grounds of physical cruelty and she was awarded custody of their eight-year-old child. The defendant contends that the two acts of cruelty alleged by his wife were not extreme and that cohabitation between the acts constituted condonation.
Mrs. Kovack testified that her husband struck her without cause on May 8, 1967, inflicting bruises and marks on her arm and leg. Her testimony was corroborated by her sister-in-law, who viewed the incident, and by her mother, who saw the bruises several days later. She further testified that he struck her on the arm and across the face on March 3, 1968. Her testimony regarding the latter date was corroborated by the same witnesses. The defendant denied both incidents.
• 1-4 The trial court found that the defendant committed the two acts of cruelty. Two acts of physical violence resulting in pain and bodily harm, committed on separate occasions, are sufficient grounds for divorce. Tuyls v. Tuyls, 21 Ill.2d 192, 171 N.E.2d 779 (1961); Varap v. Varap, 76 Ill. App.2d 402, 222 N.E.2d 77 (1966). It is the province of the trial court to determine whether there has been adequate evidence to establish the contention of either party. Since the court has the opportunity to hear the testimony, view the witnesses and weigh their credibility, a reviewing court will not overturn the trial court's finding unless it is against the manifest weight of the evidence. Hoffman v. Hoffman, 40 Ill.2d 344, 239 N.E.2d 792 (1968). The court's conclusion that the defendant was guilty of extreme and repeated cruelty was sustained by the evidence.
• 5, 6 The defendant further contends that even if acts of cruelty were committed, the resumption of the marital relationship after the occurrence of the first act comprised condonation. Condonation, in the law of divorce, is the forgiveness of an antecedent matrimonial offense on the condition that it shall not be repeated and that the offender shall thereafter treat the forgiving party with conjugal kindness. Ollman v. Ollman, 396 Ill. 176, 71 N.E.2d 50 (1947); Quagliano v. Quagliano, 94 Ill. App.2d 233, 236 N.E.2d 748 (1968). The plaintiff testified that she and the defendant did live as man and wife after the act of May 8, 1967, but ceased doing so after the second act of cruelty on March 3, 1968. If the condition is violated and the offense repeated, the earlier act is then revived. Roback v. Roback, 59 Ill. App.2d 222, 207 N.E.2d 130 (1965).
• 7, 8 The defendant next contends that there was condonation after the second alleged act of cruelty. He testified that he had sexual relations with his wife from March 3, 1968, until June 1968, when she left their home. The plaintiff testified that during that period she and her husband lived in the same apartment, but that she did not cook for him, launder his clothes, nor have sexual relations with him. After June 1968, she moved from the apartment. The plaintiff's witnesses corroborated her testimony. Condonation is an affirmative defense and must be proved by the defendant. McGaughy v. McGaughy, 410 Ill. 596, 102 N.E.2d 806 (1952). Whether the defense has been established must be decided by the trier of facts. Again, this involves appraising the credibility of the witnesses and weighing their testimony. The trial court's decision that the defendant did not prove condonation was not against the weight of the evidence.
The judgment is affirmed.
Judgment affirmed.

Seagate Pushes in to 8TB Territory with New Enterprise HDD Models
Subject: Storage | September 1, 2015 - 08:00 AM | Allyn Malventano
Tagged: Seagate, hdd, Enterprise NAS, Enterprise Capacity 3.5, 8TB
Just when we were starting to get comfortable with the thought of 6TB hard drives, Seagate goes and announces their lineup of 8TB HDDs:
Now before you get too excited about throwing one of these into your desktop, realize that these models are meant for enterprise and larger NAS environments:
As you can see from the above chart, Seagate will be moving to 8TB maximum capacities on their 'Enterprise NAS' and 'Enterprise Capacity 3.5' models, which are meant for larger storage deployments.
Home and small business users opting to go with Seagate for their storage will remain limited to 4TB per drive for the time being.
For those curious about Kinetic, this is Seagate's push to connect arrays of drives via standard Ethernet, which would allow specialized storage applications to speak directly to the raw storage via standard network gear. Kinetic HDDs are currently limited to 4TB, with 8TB planned this coming January.
Seagate's full press blast appears after the break.
Western Digital Updates My Cloud OS3, Refreshes My Cloud Mirror
Subject: Storage | September 1, 2015 - 03:00 AM | Allyn Malventano
Tagged: western digital, wdc, OS3, My Cloud Mirror
A little over a year ago, we took a look at the Western Digital My Cloud Mirror. This was a simple network connected storage device that came with a suite of software and mobile apps to give remote access to the data stored at home.
Today Western Digital announced a refresh to the My Cloud Mirror. Available for pre-order today and in stores at the end of this month, the new Mirror is essentially just a speed boosted version of the original version (which was no slouch really). Something the added speed may help with is the functionality being added to WD's My Cloud OS software:
The new 'OS3' version adds some requested features, such as using the My Cloud as a hub for syncing across multiple systems (similar to Dropbox, but with your own storage being used instead of their servers).
Another requested feature was the ability to backup and/or offload pictures and videos from mobile devices. This can be done only when connected to WiFi or over cellular data if the user has the GB/month to spare on their data plan.
Another interesting feature is My Cloud Albums. This feature lets you invite your friends/family to share *their* photos / videos from an event. You send them a link and they can then upload their content directly to your My Cloud via their mobile browser or via the My Cloud app (if they have it installed). This sounds like a great idea for collecting photos taken at group events like birthday parties or weddings.
My Cloud OS3 is slated for a 21 September release. We will take a look another look at its features once released.
Western Digital's full press blast appears after the break.
SanDisk's Ultra II; SSD bargain or not?
Subject: Storage | August 25, 2015 - 06:30 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
Tagged: sandisk, Ultra II, Marvell 88SS9189, Marvell 88SS9190
We've seen Sandisk's Ultra series before but the Ultra II is relatively new to the market. If anything, they have made the pricing even more attractive, the top end 960GB model is a mere $310, $0.32/GB is getting closer to Ryan's preferred SSD pricing. As far as the advertised speeds, sequential read and write remain constant at 550MB/s and 500MB/s but IOPS vary by the size of the drive from 81K/80K random read/write for the 120GB model to 99K/83K for the 960GB model. [H]ard|OCP's testing shows performance more or less in line with the OCZ Trion 100 but somewhat slower than the Samsung 850 EVO, both of which are almost the exact same price. Check out the full review to see the exact differences, or simply rejoice in the fact that SSDs are approaching prices below $0.30/GB.
"Most of you know that the easiest way to get a performance boost from your old mechanical hard drive is to get rid of it and replace it with a shiny new SSD. SanDisk's Ultra II offers a lot of capacity for the money and comes with a 3 year warranty. Is that enough to compete in a market where prices are falling across every category?"

IDF 2015: OCZ RevoDrive 400 PCIe NVMe Spotted in HHHL and M.2 Packaging
Subject: Storage | August 19, 2015 - 09:41 PM | Allyn Malventano
Tagged: IDF 2015, ocz, revodrive, RevoDrive 400, M.2, HHHL, pcie, NVMe, ssd
While roaming around at IDF, Ryan spotted a couple of new OCZ parts that were strangely absent from Flash Memory Summit:
You are looking at what is basically a Toshiba NVMe PCIe controller and flash, tuned for consumer applications and packaged/branded by OCZ. The only specific we know about it is that the scheduled release is in the November time frame. No specifics on performance yet but it should easily surpass any SATA SSD, but might fall short of the quad-controller-RAID RevoDrive 350 in sequentials.
As far as NVMe PCIe SSDs go, I'm happy to see more and more appearing on the market from every possible direction. It can only mean good things as it will push motherboard makers to perfect their UEFI boot compatibility sooner rather than later.
More to come on the RevoDrive 400 as November is just around the corner!
IDF 2015: Updated: Kingston NVMe PCIe Prototype Shown With New Phison E7 Controller
Subject: Storage | August 19, 2015 - 09:26 PM | Allyn Malventano
Tagged: ssd, pcie, NVMe, kingston, IDF 2015
**Edit** There was some speculation about which controller was in this SSD. It has since been solved. Here's a shot of the top of the PCB:
Now lets compare that with a shot I caught at FMS 2015 last week:
...from the Phison booth. I hadn't wirtten up my Phison post yet but this new Kingston SSD is most certainly going to be using the Phison E7 controller. Here's the placard stating some high level specs:
***end edit***
We saw a draft copy of Kingston's HyperX Predator at CES 2014. That demo unit was equipped with a SandForce 3700 series controller, but since SandForce never came through on that part, Kingston had to switch gears and introduce the HyperX Predator with a Marvell 88SS9293 controller. The Marvell part was very capable, and the HyperX Predator turned out to be an attractive and performant PCIe SSD. The one catch was that Marvell's controller was only an AHCI part, while newer NVMe-based SSDs were quickly pushing the Predator down in our performance results.
Kingston's solution is a newer generation PCIe SSD, this time equipped with NVMe:
We have very little additional information about this new part, though we can tell from the above image that the flash was provided by Toshiba (toggle mode). They also had Iometer running:
We were not sure of the exact workload being run, but those results are in line with the specs we saw listed on Silicon Motion's SM2260, seen last week at Flash Memory Summit.
We'll keep track of the development of this new part and hope to see it in a more disclosed form at CES 2016. Kingston's IDF 2015 press blast appears after the break.
IDF 2015: Intel Launches Optane Technology - XPoint for Everyone!
Subject: Storage | August 18, 2015 - 02:20 PM | Allyn Malventano
Tagged: XPoint, ssd, Optane, Intel, IDF 2015
Just three weeks ago, we reported 3D XPoint Technology. This was a 2-layer stack of non-volatile memory that couples the data retention of NAND flash memory with speeds much closer to that of DRAM.
The big question at that time was less about the tech and more about its practical applications. Ryan is out covering IDF, and he just saw the first publically announced application by Intel:
Intel Optane Technology is Intel's term for how they are going to incorporate XPoint memory dies into the devices we use today. They intend to start with datacenter storage and work their way down to ultrabooks, which means that XPoint must come in at a cost/GB closer to NAND than to DRAM. For those asking specific performance figures after our earlier announcement, here are a couple of performance comparisons between an SSD DC P3700 and a prototype SSD using XPoint:
At QD=8, the XPoint equipped prototype comes in at 5x the performance of the P3700. The bigger question is how about QD=1 performance, as XPoint is supposed to be far less latent than NAND?
Yes, you read that correctly, that's 76k IOPS at QD=1. That means only issuing the SSD one command at a time, waiting for a reply, and only then issuing another command. Basically the worst case for SSD performance, as no commands are stacked up in the queue to enable parallelism to kick in and increase overall throughput. For comparison, SATA SSDs have a hard time maintaining that figure at their maximum queue depths of 32.
Exciting to see a follow-on announcement so quickly after the announcement of the technology itself, but remember that Intel did state '2016' for these to start appearing, so don't put off that SSD 750 purchase just yet.
More to follow as we continue our coverage of IDF 2015!
Western Digital Launches 5TB and 6TB Black and Red Pro
Subject: Storage | August 18, 2015 - 08:00 AM | Allyn Malventano
Tagged: western digital, wdc, WD, Red Pro, hdd, Black, 6tb
It's been a while since Western Digital updated their Black series of HDDs, with their 4TB release taking place over two years ago. I'm happy to say that for those looking for a massive HDD suited for holding that enormous games folder too large to fit on your SSD, your wait is finally over, as today WD has updated the Black line to include 5TB and 6TB capacity units.
The Black series introduced that nifty dual stage actuator technology nearly five years ago, and has added a few more bells and whistles along the way. These new models include a 128MB cache and run on dual-core processors.
Along with that news also comes an update to their Red Pro series, which was also limited to 4TB in capacity when they launched last year. Red Pro models will now also include 5TB and 6TB units, so those wanting the most performance and lowest response time from their NAS can now also enjoy that performance at a 50% gain in capacity.
The new 6TB Red Pro also includes a 128MB cache and can peak at 214MB/sec (at the start of the disk). Also included in these is WD's NASware 3.0 firmware, which is specifically tuned to enable packs of these operating in packs while minimizing the effects of vibration on performance.
The 5TB Black comes in at $264 while the 6TB comes in at $294. The Red Pro's come at only an additional $5 over the Black, respectively (small price to pay for better compatibility with larger arrays). Both the Red Pro and Black carry a 5-year warranty.
Press blasts for the 5/6TB Black and Red Pro appear after the break.
FMS 2015: Silicon Motion SM2260 PCIe 3.0 x4 NVMe Controller Spotted

We've reviewed a few Silicon Motion SSDs in the past (Angelbird | Corsair Force LX | Crucial BX100), and I have always been impressed with their advances in SSD controller technology. Their SM2246EN SATA controller was launched two years ago, and strived to be a very efficient and performant unit. Based on our reviews that turned out to be true, and this allowed Silicon Motion to slide into the void left by SandForce, who repeatedly delayed their newer developments and forced the many companies who were sourcing their parts to look elsewhere.
The many SSDs using Silicon Motion's SM2246EN controller.
Silicon motion pushed this further with their SM2256, which we first saw at the 2014 Flash Memory Summit and later saw driving SLC/TLC hybrid flash at this past Consumer Electronics Show. While the SM2256 makes its way into more and more products, I was glad to see an important addition to their lineup at this year's FMS:
Finally we see Silicon Motion doing a PCIe controller! This is the SM2260, seen here in the M.2 form factor…
…and here in SATA Express. While the latter will likely not be as popular due to the more limited PCIe lanes present in SATA Express, I'm sure we will see this controller appearing in many PCIe devices very soon. The stated performance figures may be a bit shy of currently comparing SSDs like the Intel SSD 750 and Samsung SM951, but with the recent introduction of Z170 motherboards and RST PCIe RAID, it is now easier to RAID a smaller capacity pair of these devices, increasing the performance of slower units. Further, the point of the SM2260 is likely to get a low cost NVMe PCIe SSD controller into the hands of SSD makers, which can only mean good things for those looking to make the move away from SATA.
I've included Silicon Motion's FMS press blast after the break.
FMS 2015: Novachips HLNAND Pushes SSDs Beyond 16TB Per SSD Controller
Subject: Storage | August 13, 2015 - 08:12 PM | Allyn Malventano
Tagged: FMS 2015, ssd, sata, SAS, pcie, NVMe, novachips, HLNAND, flash
It turns out Samsung wasn't the only company to have 16TB SSDs at Flash Memory Summit after all:
Now that I've got your attention, Novachips is an SSD company that does not make their own flash, but I would argue that they make other peoples flash better. They source flash memory wafers and dies from other companies, but they package it in a unique way that enables very large numbers of flash dies per controller. This is handy for situations where very large capacities per controller are needed (either physically or logically).
Normally there is a limit to the number of dies that can communicate on a common bus (similar limits apply to DRAM, which is why some motherboards are picky with large numbers of DIMMs installed). Novachips gets around this with an innovative flash packaging method:
The 16-die stack in the above picture would normally just connect out the bottom of the package, but in the Novachips parts, those connections are made to a microcontroller die also present within the package. This part acts as an interface back to the main SSD controller, but it does so over a ring bus architecture.
To clarify, those 800 or 1600 MB/sec figures on the above slide are the transfer rates *per ring*, and Novachips controller is 8-channels, meaning the flash side of the controller can handle massive throughputs. Ring busses are not limited by the same fanout requirements seen on parallel addressed devices, which means there is no practical limit to the number of flash packages connected on a single controller channel, making for some outrageous amounts of flash hanging off of a single controller:
That's a lot of flash on a single card (and yes, the other side was full as well).
The above pic was taken at last years Flash Memory Summit. Novachips has been making steady progress on controller development as well. Here is a prototype controller seen last year running on an FPGA test system:
…and this year that same controller had been migrated to an ASIC:
It's interesting to see the physical differences between those two parts. Note that both new and old platforms were connected to the same banks of flash. The newer photo showed two complete systems – one on ONFi flash (IMFT Intel / Micron) and the other on Toggle Mode (Toshiba). This was done to demonstrate that Novachips HLNAND hardware is compatible with both types.
Novachips also had NVMe PCIe hardware up and running at the show.
Novachips was also showing some impressive packaging in their SATA devices:
At the right was a 2TB SATA SSD, and at the left was a 4TB unit. Both were in the 7mm form factor. 4TB is the largest capacity SSD I have seen in that form factor to date.
Novachips also makes an 8TB variant, though the added PCB requires 15mm packaging.
All of this means that it is not always necessary to have huge capacity per die to achieve a huge capacity SSD. Imagine very high capacity flash arrays using this technology, connecting a single controller to a bank of Toshiba's new QLC archival flash or Samsung's new 256Gbit VNAND. Then imagine a server full of those PCIe devices. Things certainly seem to be getting big in the world of flash memory, that's for sure.

FMS 2015: Toshiba Announces QLC (4-bit MLC) 3D Archival Flash
Subject: Storage | August 11, 2015 - 08:40 PM | Allyn Malventano
Tagged: toshiba, ssd, FMS 2015, flash, BiCS, Archive, Archival, 3d
We occasionally throw around the '3-bit MLC' (Multi Level Cell) term in place of 'TLC' (Triple Level Cell) when talking about flash memory. Those terms are interchangeable, but some feel it is misleading as the former still contains the term MLC. At Toshiba's keynote today, they showed us why the former is important:
Photo source: Sam Chen of Custom PC Review
That's right - QLC (Quadruple Level Cell), which is also 4-bit MLC, has been mentioned by Toshiba. As you can see at the right of that slide, storing four bits in a single flash cell means there are *sixteen* very narrow voltage ranges representing the stored data. That is a very hard thing to do, and even harder to do with high performance (programming/writing would take a relatively long time as the circuitry nudges the voltages to such a precise level). This is why Toshiba pitched this flash as a low cost solution for archival purposes. You wouldn't want to use this type of flash in a device that was written constantly, since the channel materials wearing out would have a much more significant effect on endurance. Suiting this flash to be written only a few times would keep it in a 'newer' state that would be effective for solid state data archiving.
The 1x / 0.5x / 6x figures appearing in the slide are meant to compare relative endurance to Toshiba's own planar 15nm flash. The figures suggest that Toshiba's BiCS 3D flash is efficient enough to go to QLC (4-bit) levels and still maintain a higher margin than their current MLC (2-bit) 2D flash.
