Embedded SSD performance and reliability.

The Western Digital SiliconDrive A100 SSD features premium SLC NAND media and SATA II interface for blistering speed and extended life expectancy. The Flash-based storage technology enables lower power consumption and higher shock resistance. Complete with best-in-class stability and quality, and CFast form factor, the SiliconDrive A100 are ideal for use in embedded industrial applications, communication equipment and networking applications, medical equipment, and a broad array of automotive applications.

Best-in-class reliability These drives have been engineered to have the highest reliability for mission-critical applications in extreme environments.
High tolerance to shock and vibration With no moving parts, these SSDs deliver maximum tolerance for drops, shock and vibration.
Advanced wear-leveling Lengthens drive life and preserves drive speed with a combination of dynamic and static wear-leveling algorithms designed to overcome performance degradation issues occurring in traditional SSDs that result from continual heavy use.
Robust Data Storage Data integrity protection protects against bit flips and data corruption from read disturb issues intrinsic to NAND media. Advanced error correction and enables error free data transmission by deploying advanced error correction technologies to detect and correct errors resulting from signal noise or other kinds of interference that cause data distortion.
ATA SMART and Security Commands Self-Monitoring Analysis and Reporting Technologies (SMART) detect and warn when the drive needs replacement. ATA-8 security feature sets and Secure Erase offers solid protection sensitive data.

N/A 9/12/2012 4:19:20 PM Tech Level: 5/5 Ownership: 2/5 Verified Owner	Rating: 4/5Perfect as a ZFS zil log device Pros: * SLC NAND - perfect for zil usage * Form Factor - same as a CF Card, can be mounted several ways. * Fast - SLC excels at speed Cons: * minus one egg because of Newegg's less than clear description. They have the interface listed on the card as SATA. Though 'technically' correct, CFast cards are based on the Serial ATA bus, the interface on the card is not a standard SATA interface!! You will need a CFast adapter in order to connect them to your standard motherboard SATA ports because the power connector on CFast cards is a 17-pin connector vs. the 15 pin connector on a standard SATA hard drive. Also, the connector on the CFast cards is female, unlike SATA hard drives that feature male connectors. I cound't find any CFAST adapters on Newegg, but Addonics has a few to choose from. I settled on part #ADSACFAST-N 3 out of 3 people found this review helpful. Did you? Thanks for the valuable feedback you provided!
