1 Introduction
1.1 Overview
The ASD25‐SLC 2.5" industrial grade series SATA 6 Gb/s Solid State Drive (SSD) delivers leading performance in
a 2.5" form factor while simultaneously improving system responsiveness for mobile applications over standard
rotating drive media or hard disk drives. By combining leading NAND flash memory technology with our
innovative high performance firmware, ADLINK delivers a SSD for native Serial Advanced Technology
Attachment (SATA) hard disk drive drop‐in replacement with enhanced performance, reliability, ruggedness and
power savings, since there are no rotating platters, moving heads, fragile actuators, or unnecessary delays due
to spin‐up time or positional seek time that can slow down the storage subsystem significantly I/O and
throughput performance improvement as compared to rotating media or hard disk drives. This document
describes the specifications of the ASD25‐SLC 2.5" industrial grade series SATA 6 Gb/s SSD in 2.5" form factors.
The ASD25‐SLC 2.5" industrial grade series SATA 6 Gb/s SSD primarily targets SATA based servers, fanless laptop
PCs, highly rugged mobile client devices, as well as thin and light, mini/sub‐notebooks. Key attributes include
high performance, low power, increased system responsiveness, high reliability, and enhanced ruggedness as
compared to standard mobile SATA hard drives. The ASD25‐SLC 2.5" industrial grade series SATA 6 Gb/s SSD is
available in 2.5" form factors that are electrically, mechanically, and software compatible with existing 2.5”
Serial ATA slots and cables. Our flexible design allows interchangeability with existing mobile hard drive based
on the SATA interface standard.
The ASD25‐SLC 2.5" industrial grade series SATA 6 Gb/s SSD are available in both commercial (0~70°C) and
industrial (‐40°C~+85°C) operation temperature ranges. Strict shock and vibration testes are performed to
ensure the ASD25‐SLC 2.5" industrial grade series SATA 6 Gb/s SSD meets the needs of the most demanding
applications.
