SATAsphere 2.5" SATA II Solid State Drive (SSD)     >> AMP Inc. Presentation (9.23MB Powerpoint download)
 
The SATAsphere products offer many advantages over rotating magnetic media. Better reliability and performance, remarkable stress tolerance, less weight and power consumption are just a few.
 
AMP Inc. offers industry-leading endurance by employing highly efficient flash management algorithm that includes bad block management, performance throttling and minimal write amplification. High reliabiltiy is acheived through a combination of powerful error correction and detection, multi-level data path and code protection, data fail and power fail recovery. The SSD uses less power which results in longer battery life. MLC and SLC compatible for enterprise class performance.
