SCSIFlash

Product catalog summary
Overview: The SCSIFlash™ by Solid State Disks Ltd is a compact PCB that converts Compact Flash Media to function as a SCSI device on a host's SCSI bus. It is designed to replace traditional 3.5" disk drives and larger drives with an adaptor, fitting into a standard 3.5" disk slot.
Specifications: The SCSIFlash™ supports Compact Flash cards up to 128GB, depending on the host, and can emulate various SASI, SCSI-1, or SCSI-2 drives. It offers configurable emulated disk sector sizes ranging from 256 to 4096 bytes. The device operates on 5 volts with a typical power consumption of 0.8 watts plus CF requirements.
Features: Key features include a transparent interface from the SCSI bus to solid-state Flash, fast write speeds, reduced power consumption, noise, and heat, and increased reliability. It supports a wide range of fixed disk emulations from manufacturers like Compaq, IBM, and Seagate, and is compatible with various systems such as HP 9000 series and DEC VAX.
Benefits: The SCSIFlash™ eliminates issues associated with traditional electro-mechanical storage devices, offering fast and efficient field replacement, reduced unplanned downtime, and no need for additional software due to its SCSI data storage capabilities.
Additional Capabilities: The device includes a USB port for microcode updates and diagnostics, Ethernet capability, and master image/mirroring capability. It supports multiple operating systems including HP-UX, VMS, UNIX, and more.
Contact Information: Solid State Disks Ltd is based in Reading, United Kingdom, and provides design, manufacturing, and support for the SCSIFlash™ drive.

SCSIFlash-1

™ SCSIFlash SCSIFlash™ SCSI1/SCSI2 50 pin Disk Drive Emulator to CF (SCSI Emulator for SCSI Drives) Emulated Disk Sector sizes 256-4096 bytes SPECIFICATIONS Form Factor: 3.5” form factor – 102mm (4”) wide x 147mm (5.75”) long x 25mm (1”) high* * Note other height options are available DESCRIPTION The SCSIFlash™ is an integrated solution that utilizes proven SCSI drive architecture and industrystandard Compact Flash Card technology, providing a solid state, drop-in replacement for electromechanical hard drives. The SCSIFlash™ is an industrial OEM grade solid state drive which allows Compact Flash (CF) cards of up to 128GB (host dependant) to be attached to a regular SCSI bus. It will be seen as a SCSI drive by the host computer. The SCSIFlash™ can emulate many SASI, SCSI-1, or SCSI-2 drives and can be programmed to suit the host systems requirement. Emulated Disk Sector sizes can be 256, 512, 768, 1024, 2048, 4096 bytes. The SCSIFLASH™ PCB allows service providers & OEM's to have a quick, low-cost flash memory solution for their legacy system through our configurable firmware that matches legacy systems software. Compact Flash: Standard 3M header for Type 1 & 2 cards Power: 5 Volts only @ 0.8 Watt (Typical) + CF requirement Power connector: Standard Disk drive type SCSI-1 and 2 Compatible. 50 pin DIL 0.1" Connector SCSI transfer rate: 10Mbytes/second USB Port for microcode load and real time diagnostics Ethernet capability Benefit Ÿ Firmware controlled by SCSI interface is adaptable to hosts' software SCSI drivers Master Image (.img) /mirroring capability Ÿ Provides a transparent interface from the SCSI bus to solid state Flash Ÿ Eliminates the problems found in traditional electro-mechanical/magnetic media storage devices Ÿ Fast, efficient field replacement Ÿ Lower power consumption, noise and heat Ÿ Fast write speeds Ÿ Increased reliability Ÿ Reduced unplanned downtime Ÿ No additional software required for operation due to its SCSI data storage/bootable drive FEATURES Ÿ Small format PCB converts Compact Flash Media to appear as a SCSI device on a Host's SCSI bus Ÿ 3.5" form factor PCB which will replace any 3.5" disk drive or larger drives with adaptor Ÿ Will fit in a 3.5" disk slot using the same mountings Ÿ SCSI Host will typically see the device as a disk drive of any emulation Ÿ Board is low power, using 5V only Example fixed disk emulations: Compaq, Conner, DEC, Fujitsu, Hitachi, HP, IBM, Maxtor, Micropolis, NEC, Quantum, Rodime, Seagate, Sequel, SIEMENS NIXDORF, Syquest, TEAC, TOSHIBA, Western Digital.
