I. General Description

RunCore Pro IV 1.8" ZIF SSD is designed for laptop, handheld PC. The product adopts advanced flash controller and NAND flash, contains the cache size of up to 64MB with a higher performance in read/write rate than mechanism hard drive. Furthermore, its characteristics of low power consumption and anti-vibration are notable.

1.8" ZIF SSD as standard PATA driver, which supports all major operating systems such as Windows9X/Me/NT/XP/CE/Vista/Windows7, Mac, Linux and Unix, Solaris, Vxworks. With no moving parts and seek time, 1.8" ZIF SSD does not need to spin up into action or to seek files in the way that traditional hard disk drives do - enabling it to work much faster. It supports capacity from 32GB to 128GB with maximum transfer rate as high as 82MB/s. Therefore, it is an ideal storage device for commercial users’ mobile PC.

II. Key Features (Flash Management)

1. Advance Wear-Leveling Algorithm The NAND flash devices are limited by a certain number of write cycles. When using a file

system, frequent file table updates is mandatory. If some area on the flash wears out

faster than others, it would significantly reduce the lifetime of the whole device, even if the

erase counts of others are far from the write cycle limit. Thus, if the write cycles can be

distributed evenly across the media, the lifetime of the media can be prolonged

significantly. The scheme is achieved both via buffer management and specific advanced

wear leveling to ensure that the lifetime of the flash media can be increased, and the disk

access performance is optimized as well.

2. S.M.A.R.T Function

S.M.A.R.T. is an acronym for Self-Monitoring, Analysis and Reporting Technology, an

open standard allowing disk drives to automatically monitor their own health and report

potential problems. It protects the user from unscheduled downtime by monitoring and

storing critical drive performance and calibration parameters. Ideally, this should allow

taking proactive actions to prevent impending drive failure. SMART feature adopts the

standard SMART command B0h to read data from the drive. When the SMART Utility

running on the host, it analyzes and reports the disk status to the host before the device is

in critical condition.

3. Built-in Hardware ECC

The ATA-Disk Module uses BCH Error Detection Code (EDC) and Error Correction Code

(ECC) algorithms which correct up to eight random single-bit errors for each 512-byte

block of data. High performance is fulfilled through hardware-based error detection and

correction.
