SanDisk® pSSD™ solid state drive introduces all the 

benefi ts of fl ash memory to the exciting, new net-

book market. Rugged and reliable, SanDisk pSSD solid 

state drive is the right storage module for netsurfi ng 

and wireless communication on ultra low cost PC 

(ULCPC) netbooks. With up to 16GB* multi-level cell 

(MLC) NAND fl ash, it is a fraction of the weight and 

cost of a hard disk drive. An advanced controller, rep-

resenting the best of the company’s years of expertise 

with the parallel ATA (PATA) interface, makes SanDisk 

pSSD solid state drive both fast and power-effi cient. 

SanDisk pSSD solid state drive. Everything that fl ash 

storage should be for today’s mobile PC lifestyle.

SanDisk pSSD PATA-based solid state drive was 

designed especially to meet the requirements of 

ULCPCs. These small laptops must be lightweight, 

rugged and reliable for mobile users in the consumer 

market, giving them easy Internet access and making 

wireless communication fun. 

SanDisk pSSD solid state drive has no moving parts, 

making it far more reliable than a HDD. It withstands 

the wear-and-tear of people on the go, and operates 

soundlessly in environments where noise is a nui-

sance, such as classrooms. SanDisk patented fl ash 

management technology brings high data integrity 

to its pSSD solid state drives. Dynamic bad block 

management, dynamic and static wear-leveling, and 

robust error detection and correction code (EDC/ECC) 

ensure data reliability.

SanDisk pSSD solid state drive boots fast and 

keeps working at high speed, without the need to 

spin up into action or to seek fi les like a conven-

tional HDD. SanDisk pSSD solid state drive achieves 

an industry-leading sustained read speed as high 

as 39MB/sec and a sustained write speed of up to 

17MB/sec with multi-level cell (MLC) NAND fl ash 

technology. Solid-state operation also extends bat-

tery life, critical for ULCPC users.

With MLC NAND technology, SanDisk pSSD solid state 

drive gives users just the amount of memory they 

need at a cost they can afford. A case-less module, 

SanDisk pSSD solid state drive is one-tenth the weight 

of a typical 1.8" HDD. SanDisk pSSD solid state drive 

enables sleek and slim ULCPC industrial design to 

meet worldwide consumer demands.
