MemoRight NAND Flash-based Solid State Drive 1. General Description The NSSD (NAND Flash-based Solid State Drives) of MemoRight consists of semiconductor devices completely, and the storage media is NAND Flash which has high reliability and high compatibility. As the NSSD doesn't have any mechanical part such as platter (disk), motor and suspension, it gives a good solution in a UMPC and Tablet PC for a storage device with high performance and low power consumption and small form factor.

Above 1,000 feet (305 meters), the maximum temperature is decreased linearly by 1°C every 1000 feet.
MemoRight NAND Flash-based Solid State Drive 4 Configuring and mounting the drive This section contains the specifications and the instructions for configuring and mounting the drive. 4.1 Static discharge and handling precautions After unpacking and before installation, the drive may be exposed to potential handling and electrostatic discharge (ESD) hazards.
MemoRight NAND Flash-based Solid State Drive z Power on your host and then format the SSD or initiate the SSD through the RAID card with the standard drive format procedure. z Please install the windows XP first then Vista if coexisted systems required.
MemoRight NAND Flash-based Solid State Drive 5 SATA interface The drive uses the industry-standard Serial ATA interface that supports 16-bit data transfers. It supports programmed input/output (PIO) modes 0–4; Ultra DMA modes 0–6. The drive also supports the use of the IORDY signal to provide reliable high-speed data transfers.

MemoRight NAND Flash-based Solid State Drive This command will verify one or more sectors by transferring data from the flash media to the data buffer and verifying the ECC is correct. The command is identical to the Read Sector(s) - 20h command except that DRQ is never set and no data is transferred to the host. 5.2.
MemoRight NAND Flash-based Solid State Drive This command is similar to Standby immediate. 5.2.24 Idle (E3h) This command is similar to Idle immediate. 5.2.25 Read Buffer (E4h) This command enables the NSSD to transfer the buffer data in cache. 5.2.26 Check Power (E5h or 98h) This command enables the Host to check the NSSD power mode. 5.2.27 Sleep (E6h) This command enables the Host set NSSD into sleep mode. 5.2.
