*There are unlimited read cycles. Service life is determined using SiliconSystems’ LifeEst calculation at 100% duty cycle with 25% write cycles.

LifeEst is a comprehensive measurement that considers numerous factors to determine the projected life span of a SiliconDrive. A white paper that describes the benefits of LifeEst and how to calculate it can be found at http:// www.siliconsystems.com/resources/Documents/Whitepaper/ SiliconSystems_NAND_Evolution.pdf.

The actual life of a SiliconDrive is dependant on the customer usage model. SiSMART is a patented technology of SiliconSystems that enables host systems to monitor actual usage of a SiliconDrive in real time. SiSMART measures and reports the remaining life of a SiliconDrive. For more information on SiSMART, refer to the Eliminating Unscheduled Downtime by Forecasting Useable Life white paper at http://www.siliconsystems.com/ technology/pdfs/SiliconDrive_SiSMART.pdf.
