SiliconDrive™ with Integrated PowerArmor™ Technology
SiliconSystems Datasheets by form factor

SiliconDrives from SiliconSystems are non-volatile solid-state storage solutions designed specifically for the high-performance operating environments of Enterprise OEM applications. SiliconDrives are ideal for systems in which high availability, data integrity, multi-year product lifecycles, embedded operating system compatibility, small mechanical footprint and low power consumption are the key design metrics.

SiliconSystems PowerArmor™ technology is field-proven to virtually eliminate drive corruption in the event of an less than graceful power-down. SiliconDrives™ from SiliconSystems are the only solid-state storage products to pass the grueling power-cycle tests of leading Enterprise System OEMs in the networking, communications, military, industrial, interactive multimedia kiosk and medical markets.
