The 550 is a rugged high performance NAND Flash solid state drive, available in an XMC (VITA42.3) or a PMC (IEEE1386.1) form factor.
The 550 is visible as two independent SATA drives providing up to 32 GBytes of disk space. Available configurations come in 8, or 32 GBytes.
Through multi-tasking technology, the 550 offers transfer rates of up to 30 Mbytes/sec for simultaneous read to each drive. For maximum throughput, RAID 0 is supported through software to stripe data across the two SATA drives.
The 550 supports industry standard ECC NAND Flash correction as well as wear leveling on card. Error correction codes can correct up to 8 random single-bit error per 512-byte sector. The wear leveling algorithm spreads program/erase cycles evenly across the media. This avoids premature device failure due to frequent erase cycles on the same block of Flash memory.
The 550 can also support hardware write protect as an enhanced level of security to prevent unintentional data overwrite.
The industry standard SATA interface allows the 550 to be easily integrated with most host and carrier cards for popular operating systems, including VxWorks,™ GPPLE Linux™ and WinXPe.
