Transcend today announced the launch of a high-speed Serial ATA Flash Module specifically designed for use in thin clients, blade servers, ultra-compact sub-notebooks and space-limited industrial installations. With robust, non-volatile flash memory, the Transcend SATA flash module is ideal for use in harsher, more demanding industrial environments such as in industrial PCs, embedded systems, medical instruments, factory automation systems, network infrastructure and other industrial equipment. Besides being much smaller than conventional 2.5” and 3.5” SATA hard disk drives, the Transcend SATA flash module uses far less power and offers vastly improved shock and vibration resistance, longer data retention durability and instant access speeds with zero spin-up or seek time.

Transcend’s SATA flash modules are the perfect combination of size, performance, and reliability, and are now offered in capacities of 1GB and 2GB in both Vertical (male SATA data and power connectors) and Horizontal (female SATA connector with mini 2-pin power and mechanical write-protection switch) versions to satisfy your industrial application requirements.
