SiliconSystems SiliconDrive is breakthrough storage technology engineered to overcome problems associated with products originally designed for the consumer electronics and personal computer markets. SiliconDrive technology is engineered to exceed the high performance, high reliability and multi-year lifecycle requirements of the Enterprise System OEM market. PowerArmor and SiSMART technologies integrated into every SiliconDrive eliminate field failures from power disturbances, prevent costly product requalifications and provide enhanced security to protect application data and software IP, resulting in a lower total cost of ownership.
On August 23, 2007, SiliconSystems announced the addition of a USB 10-pin module to its SiliconDrive family of products. The new family features an industry-standard form factor and is available in capacities ranging from 1- to 4-gigabytes (GB). Based on the advancements of the company's recently-announced next-generation storage technology platform, which overcomes the storage system reliability and compatibility issues associated with faster host system interfaces and shrinking process geometries, the new SiliconDrive USB 10-pin module delivers the high performance, high reliability and multi-year product lifecycle storage system required by Enterprise System OEMs.
Embedded system applications designed for use in today's most demanding environments such as blade servers, video poker machines, single board computers and interactive kiosks require the high-speed data transfer and exchange provided by a USB interface combined with a highly reliable storage solution. SiliconSystems USB 10-pin module offers a feature-rich plug-and-play storage system to meet these needs. The SiliconDrive USB 10-pin module integrates advanced storage technologies to achieve higher write speeds, enable lower power consumption and provide enhanced ruggedness and reliability.
