3.4 Projected Operational Life Span Table 3-4. Operational Life Span * There are unlimited read cycles. Service life is determined using WD's 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 The actual life of a SiliconDrive is dependent on the customer usage model. SiSMART is a patented technology of WD that enables host systems to monitor actual usage of a SiliconDrive...

The following table describes the WD SiliconDrive II CF 50-pin IDE connector signals. 1 = These signals are required only for 16-bit access, and not required when installed in 8-bit systems.

SSD-Cxxx(I)-45xx Data Sheet 4.2 Description and Features Signal Descriptions Table 4-2. Signal Descriptions Signal Name Pin Type Description A10-A0 8, 10, 11, 12, I 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20 A10-A0 (PC Card I/O mode) These address lines along with the -REG signal are used to select the following: • The I/O port address registers within the WD SiliconDrive II CF • The memory-mapped port address registers within the WD SiliconDrive II CF • A byte in the card's information structure and its configuration control and status registers This signal is the same as the PC Card Memory Mode signal. A2-A0...

SSD-Cxxx(I)-45xx Data Sheet Table 4-2. Description and Features Signal Descriptions (Continued) Signal Name Pin Type Description -CE1, -CE2 (PC Card memory mode) Card Enable 7, 32 I These input signals are used both to select the card and to indicate to the card whether a byte or a word operation is being performed. • -CE2 always accesses the odd byte of the word. • -CE1 accesses the even byte or the odd byte of the word depending on A0 and -CE2. A multiplexing scheme based on A0, -CE1, and -CE2 allows 8-bit hosts to access all data on D0-D7. See “Attribute Memory Read Operations” on page 39,...

SSD-Cxxx(I)-45xx Data Sheet Table 4-2. Description and Features Signal Descriptions (Continued) Signal Name Pin Type Description -DMARQ (UDMA protocol active) This signal is a DMA request that is used for DMA data transfers between host and device. It is asserted by the device when it is ready to transfer data to or from the host. For Multiword DMA transfers, the direction of data transfer is controlled by -IORD and -IOWR. This signal is used in a handshake manner with -DMACK (i.e., the device waits until the host asserts (-)DMACK before negating (-)DMARQ, and reasserting (-)DMARQ if there is...

SSD-Cxxx(I)-45xx Data Sheet Table 4-2. Description and Features Signal Descriptions (Continued) Signal Name Pin Type Description -IORD (PC Card memory mode) 34 I This signal is not used in this mode. -IORD (PC Card I/O mode) This is an I/O read strobe generated by the host. This signal gates I/O data onto the bus from the WD SiliconDrive II CF when the card is configured to use the I/O interface. -IORD (True IDE mode) In true IDE mode, this signal has the same function as the PC Card I/O mode. -HDMARDY (UDMA When UDMA mode DMA read is active in all modes, this signal is asserted by the host to...
