High-Performance, Highly Reliable Swissbit 2.5” SATA SSDs now available at Rutronik, Inc.


Rutronik, a leading global broad-line stocking distributor of a comprehensive range of electronic components, semiconductors, and products and technology solutions for IoT and embedded systems, has announced that Swissbit’s high-performance, highly reliable industrial-grade 2.5” SATA Solid State Disks (SSDs) are now available in both the X-60 and X-600 Series at www.Rutronik24.com.

The 2.5” SSDs from Swissbit, a leading manufacturer of industrial grade flash memory solutions, offer ideal solutions for embedded and networking/communication applications that require reliable, long service life storage in a rugged and high density form factor (up to 960GB).

“The 6Gb/s durabit™ SSDs from Swissbit utilize a DRAM-supported, page-based Flash Translation Layer (FTL), which gives them up to four times the reliability levels and data rates compared to conventional SSDs,” said Marisa Kuhmann, line manager for Swissbit.

The Swissbit X-60 SATA 6Gb/s durabit™ Series uses multi-level cell (MLC) technology, combined with a powerful controller with DRAM supported FTL and enhanced over-provisioning to deliver high-performance, cost-effective solutions for high-capacity markets. In contrast, the X-600 SATA 6Gb/s Series uses single-level cell (SLC) technology to provide maximum endurance, data retention, and performance.

Both the X-60 and X-600 Series drives feature Swissbit’s proven “Power Fail Safety,” native command queuing (NCQ), TRIM, advanced wear leveling, and bad block management, and in-field firmware update functionality. In addition, both series are supported by the Swissbit Life Time Monitoring Tool, which uses detailed S.M.A.R.T. (Self-Monitoring, Analysis and Reporting Technology), enabling users to access detailed lifetime drive statistics, and allowing the prediction of imminent failure to avoid unexpected data loss.
