Cost Effective and Light Weight

Purchase just the right amount of storage, 8GB, 16GB, 32GB, or 64GB*, packed inside a memory device that is up to one-tenth the weight of the 1.8” HDD3. SanDisk’s field proven, cost-effective, multi-level cell (MLC) NAND flash technology, enables competitive pricing for these low cost portable devices.

Fast

Your users will see the difference from the moment they power up their netbooks with SanDisk pSSD modular SSD: faster machine operation.

SanDisk pSSD boots fast and keeps working at high speed, without the need to spin up into action or to seek files like a conventional HDD. SanDisk’s modular SSD achieves high sustained random write performance translating to 9,000 vRPM.

In addition, nCache™ SanDisk’s large non volatile write cache provides a burst performance of x5 the sustained random write, allowing the users to enjoy an enhanced user experience, without the typical stuttering found in first generation SSD modules. pSSD empties its cache during idle time, and since the cache is non-volatile there is no risk of data loss to

the user.

Rugged and Reliable

Design strong and solid netbooks that withstand the wear-and-tear of people on the go, and operate soundlessly even in environments where noise is a nuisance, such as bedrooms.

With no moving parts, SanDisk pSSD modular SSD is far more reliable than a HDD. Backed by its patented flash management technology, SanDisk brings high data integrity to its modular flash device. Dynamic bad block management, dynamic and static wear-leveling, and robust error detection and correction code (EDC/ECC) ensure data reliability.

Power Efficient

Extend battery life of netbooks by using SanDisk pSSD modular SSD, and see a significant power savings over using a rotating HDD, a critical matter for netbook users on the go.
