BiT Microsystems Debuts FlashDrive Record-Breaking All-Electronic Disk

New Line of E-Disks® Exceeds Boundaries in FlashDrive Solid State Hard Disk Storage Technology

EDisk® Sets New Standards in FlashDrive and Solid State Hard Disk Drive Technology

FREMONT, California -- Jan. 7, 1999 -- BiT Microsystems, Inc. today introduced Electronic-Disk™, a line of record-breaking flashdrive and solid state hard disk storage solutions that are unmatched in performance, capacity, and speed.

Their all-electronic disk first product, EDisk® SNX35, exceeds the performance of all the solid state hard disk and flashdrive storage currently offered in the market.

BiT Microsystems' patented FlashBus™ technology enables their EDisk SNX35 to deliver 5 MBytes/sec burst read and write transfer rates and greater than 4.5 MBytes/sec sustained read and write transfer rates. The all electronic disk solid state hard disk and flashdrive solution storage capacities range from 128 MBytes to an unprecedented 9728 MBytes of completely bootable flash memory.

This all-electronic disk storage flashdrive and solid state disk disk solution requires no installable device drivers and contains no moving parts, thereby providing very reliable and stable data storage. The SNX35 EDisk flashdrive uses the SCSI-2 command set and is backward compatible. Robustly packaged in 3.5" form factor common to standard hard disks, the EDisk® SNX35 flash drive is an ideal drop-in replacement for electro-mechanical hard disk drives.

"We are setting new standards in the solid state hard disk and flash disk drive industry. We have taken the first step to our goal of eliminating the widening performance gap between data storage and CPU speed, while at the same time improving storage reliability," said R. H. Bruce, president and founder of BiT Microsystems.

Because of its exceptional performance, high reliability, longevity, and scalability, BiTMICRO's EDisk solid state hard disk and flashdrive storage solution has become the data storage of choice by industries requiring high data bandwidth extended storage solutions that can withstand harsh environmental conditions. EDisk is well suited for telecommunications, transportation, aerospace, military, and other industrial applications.
