M.2 2230 Solid State Drive

ATP Introduces High-Endurance M.2 2230 SSDs Packed with Customizable Security Features

Taipei, Taiwan (August 2022) – ATP Electronics, the global leader in specialized storage and memory solutions, introduces its latest 3D triple-level cell (TLC) flash storage solid state drives (SSDs): the N700 and N600 Series, which support the high-speed PCIe 3.0 interface x4 lanes and NVMe protocol.

The new SSDs offer hardware-based security features, such as Write Protection and Quick Erase, by project and customer request. Enabled through the general input/output (GPIO) pins, HW Write Protect puts the SSD in “Read Only” mode, thus preventing the modification or tampering of stored data. HW Quick Erase, on the other hand, initiates a block-by-block data pattern write operation to systematically erase any trace of user data.

Available as M.2 2230 modules, they offer better power efficiency and are suitable for applications using small and light systems such as point-of-sale (POS) systems, mobile PCs, Internet of Things (IoT) devices, and server boot applications.

The N700 and N600 Series accommodate a heatsink ball-grid array (HSBGA) on the M.2 2230 form factor. For customers who prefer a soldered-down, vibration-proof solution, ATP also offers M.2 Type 1620 HSBGA SSDs with the same firmware and NAND configuration.

The N700 Series is configured as pseudo single-level cell (pSLC) NAND flash for increased reliability and endurance. It is available in capacities of 40/80/160 GB, supports I-Temp ranges from -40°C to 85°C (N700Si) as well as C-Temp from 0°C to 70°C (N700Sc), and offers maximum endurance of up to 4,280 TB.

The N600 Series in native TLC is available in capacities of 120/240/480 GB, supports C-Temp operating temperature ranges from 0°C to 70°C, and offers maximum endurance of up to 768 TB.

N700/N600 Series SSDs are built and thoroughly tested to withstand the demands of industrial applications even in harsh operating conditions.

 

N700 Series Key Features

 

  • pSLC Mode for higher reliability and endurance
  • Sustainable performance with ATP Optimized Thermal Throttling firmware (FW), which prevents drastic performance drops that adversely impact the system
  • Low power consumption at just 5 mW under Power State 4 (Sleep Mode) delivers huge power savings
  • Host Memory Buffer (HMB) support for DRAM-less SSDs improve random read performance
  • Support for additional power signals to protect data against forced shutdowns.
    • Power Loss Notification (PLP_INIT#) - allows the host to initialize the flushing of data to the SSD before powering off.
    • Power Loss Acknowledge (PLP_FBCK#) - the SSD provides a signal that indicates the status of preparation for a power loss and starts flushing data after PLP_INIT# is executed.
  • Customizable Options (by request and project support)
    • HW Write Protect
    • HW Erase
      • Quick Erase
      • Secure Erase (AFSSI-5020)
    • AES-256 Encryption
    • TCG Opal 2.0

 

N600 Series Key Features

 

  • Sustainable performance with ATP Optimized Thermal Throttling firmware (FW), which prevents drastic performance drops that adversely impact the system
  • Low power consumption at just 5 mW under Power State 4 (Sleep Mode) delivers huge power savings
  • Host Memory Buffer (HMB) support for DRAM-less SSDs improve random read performance
