Solid State Drive, abbreviated as SSD, is hard drive made from an array of solid-state electronic storage chips, consisting of a control unit and a storage unit (FLASH & DRAM) composition. SSD are identical to traditional hard drives in terms of interface specifications, definitions, functions, and usage methods. They also have the same product appearance and size as traditional hard drives, but their I/O performance is greatly improved compared to traditional hard drives. Widely used in military, vehicle, industrial control, video surveillance, network monitoring, network terminals, power, medical, aviation, navigation equipment and other fields.
The operating temperature range of its chips is very wide, including commercial products (0-70 ℃) and industrial products (-40~85 ℃). Although the cost is high, it is also gradually becoming popular in the DIY market. Due to the differences between SSD technology and traditional hard drive technology, many emerging memory manufacturers have emerged, Rahonix is one of them. Manufacturers only need to purchase NAND memory and use appropriate control chips to manufacture SSD. The new generation of SSD generally adopt SATAIII, M.2, mSATA, PCI-e, SAS, CFast and SFF-8639 interface.
With the rapid development of the Internet, people's demand for data information storage is also increasing. Now many storage manufacturers have launched their own PSSD (portable SSD), and more PSSD supporting Type-C interfaces and fingerprint identification have been launched.
Regarding the interface types of SSD, we will provide you with detailed answers in the next article.
