3.5 inch E-Disk® ATE35 features fastest access time and data transfer rates, largest capacity, and highest reliability in its class.

SAN JOSE, California -- Feb. 15, 2000 -- BiTMICRO Networks, Inc. today unveiled the world's first EIDE solid state flash disk, E-Disk^® ATE35. It is the newest addition to the fastest and most reliable line of solid state flash disks in the world. Built on BiTMICRO^® Networks' patented FlashBus™ technology, the drive's 0.20 ms average access time, 11.1 MBytes per second burst read and write transfer rates, and 9.0 MBytes per second sustained read and write transfer rates are faster than any solid state flash disk with ATA/IDE interface.

The ATE35 is fully ATA-2, ATA-3, and ATA-4 compatible in standard 3.5 inch form factor. With up to 18,944 MBytes of capacity, the ATE35 is a quick drop-in replacement for conventional hard disk drives and other flash disks.

"ATE35 provides industry-leading performance and reliability for mission critical computer systems and network routers," said Roland Portman, BiTMICRO^® Networks' VP of Operations. "The sustained read and write transfer rates of ATE35 are over four times faster than the closest competitors' flash disk drives. The capacity of ATE35 is over five times larger than the closest competitors'."

The ATE35 leverages proven sophisticated hardware and software technology that BiTMICRO^® Networks has pioneered in the solid state flash disk industry. Innovations include EDC and Reed-Solomon Error Correction Code that protect user data against corruption. BiTMICRO^® Networks' proprietary dynamic remapping and wear-leveling enhance the device longevity. The patented FlashBus technology and fully associative caching offer the best performance in its class.

The exceptional performance, reliability, and longevity of BiTMICRO^® Networks' E-Disk^® has made it the natural choice for industries requiring high bandwidth extended storage solutions that can withstand harsh environmental conditions. E-Disk^® is well suited for communications equipment, transportation, aerospace, military, and other industrial applications where conventional disk drives fail

The ATE35 is supported on a wide variety of platforms such as Windows, MacOS, and UNIX variants including Solaris, Linux, FreeBSD, AIX, HP-UX, IRIX, NetBSD, QNX, Tru64, et al.
