A Commitment to Technical Innovation
Innodisk continues to bring the most innovative
products to a range of industries by developing
outstanding proprietary technologies. Here are just few
examples of Innodisk’s breakthroughs and innovations.
Pin 7 iCell Power
Cycling
iSMART Thermal
Sensor
Garbage
Collection/
TRIM
Pin 7 is a Serial ATA device-to-host
connection technology. It eliminates
the need for power cables, making
SSDs more shock-resistant and better
suited for extreme environments. Pin
7 is the choice for system integrators
who require exibility, reliability, and
space-maximization in the design of
their systems. Pin 7 technology is used
in Innodisk’s SATADOM series, which is
featured in Intel’s Romley server boards
and is currently the smallest ash
storage device available.
iSMART is a powerful, easy-to-use
SSD and HDD health monitoring
tool. It allows system integrators to
track important disk information,
such as temperature, storage space,
bad blocks, lifespan, and rmware,
all under one platform. With iSmart,
system integrators can better manage
disk usage and know exactly when to
replace a disk, before the end of its
life cycle.
Innodisk’s Thermal Sensor is a robust
heat and workload management
technology that is built into our DRAM
modules and ash storage. It is a crucial
solution for industrial and aerospace
and defense applications, which are
often susceptible to extreme heat
and performance stress. Innodisk’s
Thermal Sensors help to lower the
working temperature while distributing
workloads, which prevents modules
from overworking and overheating, and
greatly enhances system performance
and system stability.
Innodisk’s Garbage Collection/TRIM
technology is used to maintain data
consistency and perform continual
data cleansing on SSDs. It runs as
a background process, freeing up
valuable controller resources while
sorting good data into available
blocks, and deleting bad blocks. It also
signicantly reduces write operations
to the drive, thereby increasing
the SSD’s speed and lifespan. With
Innodisk Garbage Collection/TRIM
technology, an SSD’s health and
performance are optimized.
iCell is a smart data protection
technology that is built into Innodisk’s
SSDs. iCell is crucial for mission-
critical applications, where working
under extreme conditions and without
backup power is unavoidable. Our iCell
technology provides a mechanism to
instantaneously discharge data stored
in temporary volatile DRAM buers to
ash storage, to ensure the safety of
data during power failures.
Innodisk’s Power Cycling management
is a comprehensive data protection
mechanism that functions before and
after a sudden power outage to the SSD.
Low-power detection terminates data
writing before an abnormal power-o,
while table-remapping after power-on
deletes corrupt data and maintains
data integrity. Innodisk’s Power Cycling
provides eective power cycling
management, preventing data stored in
ash from degrading with use.
