STEC, Inc., The SSD Company, a leading global provider of solid-state drive (SSD) technologies and products, today announced that its enterprise-class MACH16 SSD technology now extends to the embedded market in one of the industry's smallest solid-state form factors. The new MACH16 Slim SATA SSD provides embedded system designers with the same advanced flash management technology as STEC's enterprise SSDs. The device leverages industry-standard 22-pin SATA cabling (supporting JEDEC MO-297 and SFF-8156 specifications) and provides the highest data integrity, endurance and reliability available in this market segment. With these features, the MACH16 Slim SATA SSD is well-suited for high-performance and rugged embedded systems.
Where size and power consumption are concerned, the MACH16 Slim SATA is an ideal drop-in replacement for a 2.5-inch rotating hard disk drive (HDD), or even a traditional 2.5-inch SSD. This SATA-based solution, which enables system designers to shrink the total storage footprint by 60 percent, consumes up to 70 percent less power than an HDD or conventional SSD. This combination of compact design and low power consumption supports the industry trend toward commercial, off-the-shelf, small-format system boards (e.g., Mini-ITX, Pico-ITX and CompactPCI) targeted for next-generation original equipment manufacturer (OEM) embedded designs.

Moser Baer has launched India's first credit-card shaped USB flash drive called Moser Baer Zap. The pocket flash drive is akin to a credit card and fits easily in wallets, card holders, files and folders owing to its ultra-slim size and shape. During pilot tests, it has been proved to be very convenient and useful to carry and store.
According to Deepak Shetty, Sr. Vice President, Domestic Sales & Marketing, Moser Baer, "Most of the players in the flash memory segment have been experimenting with sizes and shapes. We have noted that an interesting shape may sometimes be inconvenient to the users when it is not traceable and gets lost easily. This holds quite true for the users who are always on-the go and need pen drives almost on a daily basis. Moser Baer Zap not only scores high on the convenience factor but also on the technology, making it a perfect offering in the 2 GB- above pen drive segment. It is a boon for the forgetful users saving them a lot of trouble."
The credit card shape lends credence and significance to the flash drive making people little more cautious and careful in using and keeping it safely. After all, data is as important as any other valuable matter.
