FFD™ 3.5" SCSI Highly Reliable, Narrow SCSI Solid-State Flash Disk Technology Overview M-Systems’ Fast Flash Disk (FFD) 3.5" SCSI disk is a state-of-the-art solid- state disk based on NAND flash technology, containing no moving parts. The outstanding performance of the FFD 3.5" SCSI is based on M-Systems’ ® TrueFFS technology that provides full disk emulation, enhanced endurance with dynamic wear-leveling and bad-block mapping-out flash management. Due to its unique design, the FFD 3.5" SCSI eliminates seek time, latency and other electro-mechanical delays inherent in conventional disk drives with a 9.7 MBytes/sec burst read/write rate. The FFD 3.5” SCSI is equipped with on-the-fly EDC/ECC implementing 48-bit Reed Solomon algorithm with DIP switch configurations and front panel LED indicators. The FFD 3.5" SCSI is fully compatible with the SCSI-2 interface, and has the same mechanical dimensions of traditional mechanical disks. It is a drop-in replacement for rotating disks where top reliability is required. Main Features „128MB to 5.6GB disk capacity Applications „3.5" standard form factor FFD 3.5" SCSI provides an ideal storage solution for mission-critical applications that must operate under harsh environmental conditions. „SCSI-2 interface M-Systems' family of FFDs has been used since 1997 as mass storage solutions „Front panel LEDs for data recorders, moving maps, sonar, radar, fire control systems, black boxes, † Power and Diagnostics data acquisition systems, and rugged laptops and servers in air force, navy and † Busy/Access army installations worldwide. „DIP Switch configuration The FFD 3.5" SCSI is used in telecommunication systems within optical and „9.7 MBytes/sec burst read/write ATM switches, IP gateways, wireless base stations and core routers, providing „3.0 MBytes/sec sustained read NEBS Level 3 compliance, top reliability and a maintenance-free solution. „2.0 MBytes/sec sustained write The FFD 3.5" SCSI top reliability and high MTBF (>1,000,000 hours) enables „Quick security erase in 10 seconds it to be used in Factory Automation (FA) systems, Point Of Sales (POS) ® systems, assembly and robots controllers, and within manufacturing and „TrueFFS technology medical systems. „Enhanced 1,000,000 write/erase cycles The FFD 3.5" SCSI provides the most reliable solution without compromising endurance by dynamic wear-leveling speed, capacity, data integrity, or portability, making it an ideal solution for „Bad-block mapping-out algorithm demanding applications operating under harsh environmental condition „Ensures data integrity under unstable FFD Product Line power conditions „Hardware and software EDC/ECC M-Systems’ FFD product line offers complete solutions for customers who require rugged and high-performance solid-state flash disks.
