Advantech SQFlash SATA Disk Module (SDM) supports SATA II standard (3.0 Gb/s) interface with good performance and thus performs faster data transfer rate. Sustain read can reach up to 100MB per second (max), and sustain write reach up to 50MB per second (max). Moreover, Advantech SQFlash SDM is designed as the smallest form factor size that could enhance compatibility with various design applications. Advantech SQFlash SDM is within compact design. Particularly the 7th pin of standard SATA 7pin connector can optionally be the built-in power VCC pin. In other words, it could be connected directly to the SATA on-board socket on customers’ system without additional power cable. Another advanced design of Advantech SQFlash SDM is the connector with latch and thus such innovative mechanical design could improve data transfer reliability while device operating. With the locked connector design, it could enhance anti-vibration mechanism of Advantech SQFlash SDM.
