14.3 GByte, Highest Capacity 3.5" SCSI Flash Drive Now Shipping from Adtron.Business Editors/High-Tech Writers PHOENIX--(BUSINESS WIRE)--June 11, 2001 The highest capacity 3.5" SCSI SCSI in full Small Computer System Interface Once common standard for connecting peripheral devices (disks, modems, printers, etc.) to small and medium-sized computers. SCSI has given way to faster standards, such as Firewire and USB. Flash Drive is now available from Adtron Corp. This manufacturer of high reliability data storage solutions adds two new capacities, 12.8 GBytes and 14.3 GBytes, to its S35PC line of SCSI Flash drives. Designed for harsh environment applications requiring reliability, durability, long life and high capacity, the Adtron S35PC storage system is a form-fit-function drop-in solid state replacement for SCSI 3.5" disk and DAT (1) (Dynamic Address Translator) A hardware circuit that converts a virtual memory address into a real address. See also DAT file. (2) (Digital Audio Tape) A magnetic tape technology used for backing up data. drives. Adtron's SCSI command In SCSI computer storage, a command is the basic unit of communication. The SCSI command architecture was originally defined for parallel SCSI buses but has been carried forward with minimal change for use with Fibre Channel, iSCSI and Serial Attached SCSI. set delivers consistent system operation and can be factory configured to a specified geometry and command set to meet system specific operating parameters. Alan Fitzgerald For the Australian writer, satirist and journalist, see: Alan Fitzgerald (satirist) Alan Fitzgerald, U.S. musician (both a bassist and a keyboardist), was a member of several U.S. bands. , president of Adtron stated, "Adtron can now meet higher capacity rugged storage requirements as found in pipeline inspection systems, airborne surveillance, shipboard ship·board n. 1. The condition of being aboard a ship: on shipboard. 2. Archaic The side of a ship. adj. fire control systems and mobile mapping systems. Over the past year Adtron shipped 9.6 GByte Flash drives to these applications; this new capacity enables additional capabilities." The S35PC product line offers capacities of 5.1 GBytes, 9.6 GBytes, 12.8 GBytes and 14.3 GBytes in commercial (0 to 60 degrees Celsius) and enhanced (-25 to +75 degrees Celsius) temperature ranges for applications that must operate in high shock and vibration environments. Additional characteristics include easy firmware A category of memory chips that hold their content without electrical power. Firmware includes flash, ROM, PROM, EPROM and EEPROM technologies. When holding program instructions, firmware can be thought of as "hard software." See flash memory, ROM, PROM, EPROM, EEPROM and FOTA. upgrade for the addition of new features, 0 dB sonar signature for submarine systems, low power and 5 VDC-only operation for mobile applications. The 14.3 GByte capacity, S35PC-14GC, is priced at $42,000 USD USD In currencies, this is the abbreviation for the U.S. Dollar.
