Page 2 of 2 “The drives enable improved system responsiveness with a maximum sequential read speed of 240MB per second (MBps) and maximum sequential write speed of 200MBps, enabling an improvement in overall computing experience, and faster boot and application loading times. The drives also offer AES data encryption to prevent unauthorised data access.”Featured Whitepaper

“This new 43nm SSD family balances value/performance characteristics for its targeted consumer applications, through use of MLC NAND and an advanced controller architecture.” Despite the economic downturn, Toshiba says that it expects SSDs to gain “significant market traction in 2009”, and says that “many market analysts” also share this expectation. SSD adoption should grow to “approximately 10% of the notebook market by 2010, and 25% of the notebook market by 2012. Toshiba expects the value/performance of its MLC NAND-based SSD line-up to help speed the acceptance of solid state storage.” Taking the fight up to SanDisk, Samsung and other competitors, Toshiba says it will “continue to promote innovations that widen the horizons of the NAND Flash market and support its continued leadership in that market. “The company will spur demand for SSD in notebook PCs, netbooks and digital consumer products by enhancing its lineup, offering products with different densities and interfaces in a range of packages, while advancing device performance.” Specifications: Model: 2.5-inch Serial ATA-2 Size: 69.9(W)x9.5(H) x100(D)mm Mass: 66g (Typ) Model: 1.8-inch Serial ATA-2 Size: 54.0(W)x5.0(H)x78.5(D)mm Mass: 44g (Typ) Model: 1.8-inch Flash Module Serial ATA-2 Size: 53.6(W)x3.0(H)x70.6(D)mm Mass: 15g (Typ) Interface: Serial ATA-2 (3Gbps) Voltage: 3.3V (Module, 1,8-inch type), 5V (2.5-inch type) Reading speed: Maximum speed 240MBps (sequential mode) Writing speed: Maximum speed at 200MBps (sequential mode) Temperature: 0 to 70 degrees Celsius MTTF: 1 million hour |
