BLR , Fusion - io is a giant company that is producing one of the highest memory device
capacity flash card. I believe they are a good candidate for infringer list .JMHO-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Fusion-io is a computer hardware and software systems company based in Cottonwood Heights, Utah, that designs and manufactures what it calls a new memory tier based on NAND Flash memory technology. It was named the second most promising information technology company by The Wall Street Journal in March 2010.[2]
Founded in late 2005 as Fusion Multisystems, Inc.,[3] it was producing products by 2007.[4] It attracted attention in February 2009 by hiring Apple Inc. co-founder Steve Wozniak as its chief scientist.[5] In May 2010, the Linux block-io principal developer, Jens Axboe, joined Fusion-io after leaving Oracle.[6] In June 2012, the Btrfs principal developer Chris Mason joined Fusion-io after leaving Oracle.[7] In June 2012, Josef Bacik ex-Red Hat filesystem hacker, Btrfs developer joined Fusion-io.[8]
OEM partnerships
Fusion-io has partnerships with Hewlett-Packard, IBM, Dell, Cisco and Supermicro, which is due in part to its server-centric architecture called ioMemory.[9][10] IBM’s project Quicksilver,[11] based on Fusion-io technology, showed that solid-state technology in 2008 could deliver the fastest performance of its time: 1 million IOPS.[12] As of December 2009, IBM has offered the High IOPS SSD PCIe Adapter, based on the ioDrive, as the only PCIe-based solid-state storage solution for use in IBM servers.[10][13] HP worked with Fusion-io to create the IO Accelerator specifically for HP's BladeSystem C-Series servers in March 2009.[14]

Fusion-io actually took the new ioDrive2 performance and flipped it on its head, creating a data write speed that's actually faster than the read speed, according to Fusion-io CEO David Flynn.
The new ioDrive2 Duo (a full-height card) has 3GBps total bandwidth, offering up to 700,000 read I/Os per second (IOPS) and over 900,000 write IOPS.
The ioDrive2 PCIe flash card
Fusion ioDrive2 and ioDrive2 Duo will be offered in 365GB, 785GB, 1.2TB and 2.4TB capacities. General availability will begin in November. Pricing for Fusion's new ioMemory platform starts at a suggested retail price of $5,950. "The list price just over $11 a gigabyte," Flynn said.
By comparison, Fusion-io's first generation >Intel, Samsung, Toshiba and SanDisk.
The company also upgraded its controller's firmware with a self-healing feature called Adaptive FlashBack that provides chip-level fault tolerance, which enables ioMemory to repair itself after a single chip or a multi-chip failure without interrupting application performance.
The PCIe flash cards now also support all major operating systems, including Windows, >HP-UX.4]
