Rugged & Reliable

SanDisk uSSD™ 5000 solid state drive takes the benefi ts of fl ash to new markets with low-capacity storage requirements, most notably the low cost PC (LCPC). Rugged and reliable, it is a fraction of the size and cost of the hard disk drive (HDD) in the 1 to 8

GB* range. SanDisk adds high performance to the uSSD 5000 solid state drive offering, with an advanced controller that represents the company’s years of USB expertise.

Unlike the HDD, SanDisk uSSD 5000 solid state drive has no moving parts. It keeps working in challenging environments such as classrooms, kiosks and in spacerestricted server racks. Our patented fl ash management technology brings top data integrity to uSSD 5000 solid state drives, even during power loss. Dynamic bad block management, dynamic and static wear-leveling, and robust error detection and correction code (EDC/ECC) ensure data reliability.

High Performance

Applications

SanDisk uSSD 5000 solid state drives achieve a sustained read speed as high as

31 MB/sec and a sustained write speed of up to 24 MB/sec with single-level cell (SLC) technology.

SanDisk uSSD 5000 solid state drive offers a no-compromise fl ash-based storage solution for:

• LCPCs that must be rugged reliable and require up to 4GB storage. uSSD

5000 solid state drive can meet these requirements more effi ciently than the HDD.

• Desktops that support Microsoft®

Vista and can benefi t from enabling

ReadyBoost®.

• Point of sale (POS) stations, where uSSD

5000 solid state drive replaces the HDD.

• Blade servers, where uSSD 5000 solid state drive is ideal to store critical backup fi les and provide boot functionality.

Cost Effective

Why pay for more capacity than you need? uSSD 5000 solid state drives let you purchase just the right amount, packed inside a memory device that’s one-quarter the size of the 1.8” HDD. It offers you the choice of SLC fl ash technology or the costeffective multi-level cell (MLC) technology.
