Description
The RunCore Mini PCI-e SSD will make your computer approximately 4X-6X faster and turns any compatible computer into a viable solution for many personal, business, industrial, or military computing applications.
The Mini PCI Express Card format has become the ideal choice for storage media of the ultra-mobile PC. With its small footprint and industry- standard design, the mPCIe format is an ideal fit for embedded solid state storage because it allows for high capacities and high performance while ensuring compatibility in ultra-mobile applications. The product is compliant with ATA and supports
Windows9X/Me/NT/XP/CE/Vista, MAC, Linux and Unix.
The PCI Express Mini Card uses NAND flash technology, it offers the capacity 16G to 64G, the highest read and write rate reaches 80MB/s.
The key points:
- Bad block management and wear leveling algorithms dramatically enhance flash memory endurance
- Power-down data protection ensures data integrity in case of power loss
- The rugged industrial design combined with temperature testing and adherence to rigid standards has resulted in the highest reliability and performance, tolerance to shock.
RunCore SSD also features an onboard Slave Micro USB Port!
Micro USB Slave:
This feature allows owners to use their mini PCI-E SSD as a USB Drive. You can now preload your RunCore drive with your current HDD via any cloning or ghosting program. We highly recommend the free trial of Acronis True Image Software as this will save you a considerable amount of time and trouble instead of installing a new OS and all the applicable drivers.
