1 PRODUCTDESCRIPTION

1.1 OVERVIEW

SimpleTech’s Zeus Ultra DMA Solid State Drives (SSDs) incorporate advanced Single-

Level Cell (SLC) NAND flash memory technology to deliver state-of-the-art, non-volatile

mass storage devices. Additional software device drivers are not required. Zeus SSDs

areavailableinboth2.5-inch and3.5-inchformfactors,with standard44and40pin IDE/

ATA interfaces, respectively. Zeus SSDs are fully ATA-5 compliant and conform to the

samemechanical andmounting requirementsas standardrotating drives—makingZeus

SSDs easy-to-install, drop-in replacements for standard IDE/ATA-compliant hard disk

drives (HDDs).

AttheheartoftheZeusSSDistheZeuscontrollerIC—providingtheATAinterfacetothe

host,andtheIDEinterfacetothe drive’slocal flashstoragemedia.TheZeus controller’s

integrated DMA controller interfaces with system memory to facilitate the seamless

transfer of data between the host and the SSD.

Product Description Overview

2Zeus Ultra DMA Solid State Drives

Standard Zeus SSDs are available with unformatted memory capacities ranging from 4

to128GB.Designedtooperateinharshenvironments,ZeusSSDs excelinruggedness,

reliability, compatibility and portability, and are ideal for applications that require high

reliability and high tolerance to shock, vibration, humidity, altitude and temperature. And

since there are no moving parts, Zeus SSDs are completely maintenance-free.

ZeusSSDs canoperate atsustaineddatatransferratesofupto60MBpersecond.With

powerconsumptionkepttoa minimum, Zeus SSDscanbepowered from a single 5volt

source. The drive’s solid state design eliminates electromechanical noise and delay

inherent in traditional magnetic rotating media. Utilizing SimpleTech’s patent-pending

wear-leveling and bad-block mapping algorithms, Zeus SSDs ensure the consistency,

accuracy, and integrity of user data. Superior data reliability is achieved through

embedded error detection and correction code (EDC/ECC). The non-recoverable error

rate of Zeus SSDs is less than 1 error per 1014 bits read.

Zeus SSDs offer powerful user-customizable data sanitization (purge) features.

Supportingbothsanitizederase/fillandnon-recoverablesanitizationoptions,ZeusSSDs

can be configured to remove data from the drive, freeing storage space for later reuse,

or to remove data and destroy the storage media—making the SSD unusable and data

retrieval impossible. The drives’s data security features comply with Department of

Defense (DoD) and US military data security standards, including AFSSI 5020, AR 380-

19, NAVSO P-5239-26, NISPOM DoD 5220.22-M and NSA 130-2.
