Innodisk Patented iSLC Firmware Technology with 100,000 P/E Cycles to Seize 5G Networking and AI Smart City Opportunities

The 5G industry has been booming, particularly in the networking slicing technology, which has enabled the development of an efficient transmission architecture for 5G networks. Network slicing allows carriers to build multiple networks to meet the differentiated requirements of different customers for network capabilities, which also brings new data storage challenges for the industry.

To help customers overcome the obstacles of storing and accessing data in harsh industrial environments, the company, provider of industrial-grade flash storage, has launched a line of industrial-grade storage solutions. Especially in response to the high-strength RW requirements generated by IoT devices and AI edge computing, Innodisk Corp. has introduced the new-gen patented iSLC technology with its firmware technology. Combining the BiCS5 112-layer TLC 3D NAND flash, the technology enhances the industrial storage performance and achieves the industry-highest 100,000 P/E cycles. Compared to traditional TLC 3D NAND flash, this extends the lifespan by 33x.

In addition, seeing that many 5G networking, 5G infrastructure, and smart city applications are implemented under harsh outdoor conditions or in 24/7 environments, such as smart e-payment based on AI vision inspection and ANPR, the company leverages its hardware-software integration capability to embed the firmware technologies with the iSLC Series. With the firm’s iData Guard and iPower Guard firmware, the data transition can be conducted under unstable environments and be protected to achieve stability and experience for the business opportunities of 5G networking, smart city, and AIoT applications.

PCIe 4IG2-P M.2 SSD

The company’s iSLC Series supports SATA and PCIe interfaces and provides various specifications of sizes as well as the standard and industrial wide-range temperature models. Now, the SATA SSD 3IE7 and PCIe 4IG2-P Series are available in the market, and the PCIe 3IE6 and PCIe 4IE3 Series will have their launch in 2Q23. Customers from different vertical fields can find the solutions from the firm’s quality offers to seize the growing industrial business opportunities.
