Fast
Your users will see the difference from the
moment they power up their netbooks with
SanDisk pSSD modular SSD: faster machine
operation.
SanDisk pSSD boots fast and keeps working
at high speed, without the need to spin up
into action or to seek files like a conventional
HDD. SanDisk’s modular SSD achieves
high sustained random write performance
translating to 9,000 vRPM.
In addition, nCache™ SanDisk’s large
non volatile write cache provides a burst
performance of x5 the sustained random write,
allowing the users to enjoy an enhanced user
experience, without the typical stuttering found
in first generation SSD modules. pSSD empties
its cache during idle time, and since the cache is
non-volatile there is no risk of data loss to
the user.
Rugged and Reliable
Design strong and solid netbooks that
withstand the wear-and-tear of people on
the go, and operate soundlessly even in
environments where noise is a nuisance,
such as bedrooms.
With no moving parts, SanDisk pSSD modular
SSD is far more reliable than a HDD. Backed
by its patented flash management technology,
SanDisk brings high data integrity to its
modular flash device. Dynamic bad block
management, dynamic and static wear-leveling,
and robust error detection and correction code
(EDC/ECC) ensure data reliability.
Power Efficient
Extend battery life of netbooks by using SanDisk
pSSD modular SSD, and see a significant power
savings over using a rotating HDD, a critical
matter for netbook users on the go.
