 5000 solid state drives

Unlike the HDD, SanDisk uSSD 5000 solid 

state drive has no moving parts. It keeps 

working in challenging environments 

such as classrooms, kiosks and in space-

restricted server racks. Our patented fl ash 

management technology brings top data 

integrity to uSSD 5000 solid state drives, 

even during power loss. Dynamic bad 

block management, dynamic and static 

wear-leveling, and robust error detection 

and correction code (EDC/ECC) ensure 

data reliability.

SanDisk uSSD 5000 solid state drives 

achieve a sustained read speed as high as 

31 MB/sec and a sustained write speed of 

up to 24 MB/sec with single-level cell (SLC) 

technology.

Why pay for more capacity than you need? 

uSSD 5000 solid state drives let you 

purchase just the right amount, packed 

inside a memory device that’s one-quarter 

the size of the 1.8” HDD. It offers you the 

choice of SLC fl ash technology or the cost-

effective multi-level cell (MLC) technology.

SanDisk uSSD™ 5000 solid state drive takes 

the benefi ts of fl ash to new markets with 

low-capacity storage requirements, most 

notably the low cost PC (LCPC). Rugged and 

reliable, it is a fraction of the size and cost 

of the hard disk drive (HDD) in the 1 to 8 

GB* range. SanDisk adds high performance 

to the uSSD 5000 solid state drive offering, 

with an advanced controller that represents 

the company’s years of USB expertise.

SanDisk uSSD 5000 solid state drive offers 

a no-compromise fl ash-based storage 

solution for:

•  LCPCs that must be rugged reliable 

and require up to 4GB storage. uSSD 

5000 solid state drive can meet these 

requirements more effi ciently than 

the HDD.

•  Desktops that support Microsoft® 

Vista and can benefi t from enabling 

ReadyBoost®.

•  Point of sale (POS) stations, where uSSD 

5000 solid state drive replaces the HDD.

•  Blade servers, where uSSD 5000 solid 

state drive is ideal to store critical backup 

fi les and provide boot functionality.
