The New E-Disk® boosts up to 20 MB/sec transfer rates and access times of 0.1 ms and is ideal for applications requiring larger SSD capacity in smaller foot print
FREMONT, California -- June 18, 2001 -- True to its premise: "Pioneering Intelligent Storage", BiTMICRO Networks, Inc. intensifies its research and commitment by bringing to market the latest high capacity, high performance 2.5-inch solid state SCSI E-Disk
®.
Following the lead of its predecessors, the 2.5-inch SCSI is unsurpassed in data access speeds of 0.1 ms with sustained sequential and random read/write transfer rates greater than 18 MB/sec and burst transfer rates of 20 MB/sec. It is the only flash-based SSD storage device to offer 100 percent data integrity through its patented PowerGuard
® feature.
With this new compact design, higher capacities are accompanied by trimmed down heights for very space-limited storage applications. Just consider this sample of the powerful new generation: 1 GB at 8.6 mm; 5.1 GB at an astonishing 12.6 mm; 9.2 GB at 16.7 mm; and finally the long awaited 17.4 GB at only 24.8 mm. "Our engineers are dedicated to give our customers innovative, cost-effective, highly reliable and flexible storage solutions that help reduce the complexity of their embedded systems requirements and information systems infrastructures,'' said Dave Bultman, BiTMICRO's VP of Engineering. ``Providing simple yet powerful technical solutions for complex problems is a hallmark of BiTMICRO,"Bultman added.
The 2.5-inch SCSI family line, SNX, SFX and SUX, is ideally suited for mission critical storage applications that require high system uptime and very reliable operations either for commercial applications, or in a harsh environment of extreme temperature, shock, and vibration. With instant access time and superior read and write transfer rates, the E-Disk
® addresses the needs for high capacity, high-speed data, voice, video storage, and audio/imagery processing in legacy standard 50-pin (8-bit) interface.
Full Associative Caching, Memory Error Scrubbing, ECC Threshold, Wear-out Monitor, Reed Solomon Error Correction, Erase and Write Wear-Leveling, and Automatic Bad Block Re-mapping are the E-Disk's standard preventive, predictive, and corrective maintenance features. These features provide the E-Disk
® with extreme endurance, exceptional fault tolerance, extensive data protection, and outstanding data integrity.
The E-Disk
® product family is a 'plug and play' solution that has been tested on all major platforms. The E-Disk
® is fully compatible with Linux, Solaris, Windows, MacOS and LynxOS. Other supported operating systems include, but is not limited to: AIX, FreeBSD, HP-UX, IRIX, NetBSD, OS/2, QNX, VxWorks, SCO Unixware and Open Server, Solaris X86, and Tru64.
Its unmatched performance, 99.999 percent availability and 100 percent data integrity plus its available high capacities, make BiTMICRO's 2.5-inch SCSI the ideal storage device solution for all mission-critical applications requiring this interface and foot print.
