Introducing Stealth’s New Solid State Drives (SSD)
Rugged, Fast, No Moving Parts, Highly Reliable

SSD is the acronym for Solid State Drive. SSD’s are highly reliable storage devices that use solid-state memory (NAND Flash) to store data. Stealth Computer SSD products emulate a standard 2.5″ mobile hard drive and are a direct, no fuss plug-in replacement.

Typical capacities of SSD’s are currently 32GB, 64GB, 128GB and 256GB. Stealth offers SSD in two technologies, MLC and SLC. Please see our knowledge base to help you decide on the best SSD for your application Single Level Cell (SLC) or Multi Level Cell (MLC).

Justifying the use of SSD technology in today’s computer applications has become easy when you consider the benefits and features achieved. Stealth’s new Solid State Drives (SSD) are available in all Stealth products including Rack PC/Servers, LittlePCs, Panelmounts, rugged Portable PCs or you can purchase them as standalone devices directly from our on-line store at StealthDirect.com.

Contact us today to discuss your application with one of our product specialists. Toll Free: 1-888-STEALTH (1-888-783-2584) or order online and receive Free Shipping from our new secure e-commerce website, StealthDirect.com.

The Discovery Channel is working on a new TV show called; Inventions that Shook the World. In one of the episodes they are featuring the personal computer.

The film crew visited Stealth Computer recently and took some close up product shots of the electronics that go inside computer products. They also shot some video of our Rack Server products being assembled in our production area. The show will air in early 2011.

What is a SSD (Solid State Drive)?

SSD is the acronym for Solid State Drive. SSD’s are highly reliable storage devices that use solid-state memory to store data. An SSD emulates a hard disk drive and is available in the typical interfaces IDE, SATA or SCSI.

Solid State Drives can withstand extreme shock, vibration, temperature, altitude and harsh environmental conditions while operating without compromising on data integrity. Since there are no moving parts involved, data access time occurs as quickly as 0.1ms compared to typical consumer hard drives with spinning disks that can take 10-15ms, on average.

Standard models operate in temperatures of 0 – 70° C. and special industrial models can withstand operating temperatures of -40 – 85° C. SSD’s are the same size and shape as traditional desktop hard drives (available in 1.8-inch, 2.5-inch, and 3.5-inch form factors) and utilize the same connectors making them easy to install in traditional PC based equipment.

What is the difference between SLC and MLC Solid State Drives?

There are two types of NAND Flash chips available in Solid State Drives. Single-level cell (SLC) and multi-level cell (MLC). Both are similar in design and even look the same but their differences are quite significant.

What is SLC?
Single Level Cell (SLC) flash outperforms Multi Level Cell (MLC) flash.

What is MLC?
Multi Level Cell (MLC) flash has low cost benefits, but performs at slower speeds.

Advantages of SLC over MLC

• SLC flash accesses and writes to the NAND flash chips much faster, by using “simpler” control logic with 1 bit versus the 2 bits used by MLC flash.
• The program operations in SLC chips last 100,000 cycles, ten times longer than MLC.
• At a first glance the SLC drives appear to be much more expensive than MLC. However, when you consider the increased performance, higher reliability and increased lifespan the aggregate cost is much lower for the SLC based units.

Advantages/Disadvantages of SLC and MLC based Solid State Drives

Features	SLC	MLC
High Density	Lower Capacities	Higher Capacities
Low Cost per Bit	Higher than MLC	Lower Cost
Endurance	100,000 cycles	10,000 cycles
Operating Temperature Range	(industrial, more rugged)	(commercial, less rugged)
Low Power Consumption	Low Power Better Performance	Not as efficient as SLC
Write/Erase Speeds	Best Performance	Not as good as SLC
Write/Erase Endurance	Best Performance	Not as good as SLC
Density	16Mbit	32Mbit/64Mbit
Block Size	64Kbyte	128Kbyte
Architecture	x8	x8 / x16

The above performance factors make SLC based Solid State Drives an excellent fit for mission critical and important applications where reliability, performance and long term support are desired. MLC based Solid State Drives are ideal for applications that are not as critical and where saving costs is a tradeoff for a bit less performance and long term reliability.

Not everyone has been going with Windows 7 as there are many companies who have standardized on Windows XP Pro and cannot migrate quite yet. Microsoft is to discontinue support on XP Pro SP3 in April 2014 but just try buying a copy. Usually after the first service pack we will see further adoption to the new OS Win 7.

If you must have Windows XP Pro, Stealth has limited inventory that is available on a first come first served basis. Keep in mind this is the original OEM License and media and must be sold with a PC. Call our Sales Associates to discuss; Toll Free: 1-800-498-1777

Microsoft just released Windows XP Mode to manufacturing and said it will make XP Mode available as a public download on October 22, 2009 which is the official launch date for Windows 7.

XP Mode is an acknowledgment that many customers skipped Vista and will move to Windows 7 directly from the eight year old XP OS.  Microsoft says XP Mode supports older or custom-built applications, maintaining backward compatibility through a virtual Windows XP SP3 environment running under the Windows Virtual PC.

Customers that buy Windows 7 Professional, Enterprise and Ultimate editions will get XP Mode as a free download however it is important to note that there are some hardware considerations. A minimum of 2GB’s of RAM, 15GB of hard disk space and as well (very important) a virtualization enabled processor from Intel or AMD.
