SATA III Speed Combined with CompactFlash Physical Ruggedness for Advanced OEM Hardware
PRESTONICs presents ADATA Industrial CFast Cards, engineered to combine the high-speed throughput of the SATA III 6Gb/s interface with the field-proven mechanical durability of the CompactFlash form factor. Designed specifically for high-throughput industrial imaging, heavy data logging, and mission-critical embedded systems, this series offers strict Bill of Materials (BOM) locking and dedicated Project Protection to guarantee long-term component availability and hardware consistency.
ADATA Industrial CFast cards replace traditional legacy PATA interfaces with SATA efficiency while delivering robust electrical and environmental protection:
Key Engineering Highlights:
High-Speed SATA III 6Gb/s Interface: Replaces legacy IDE architecture to deliver high sequential read/write speeds and low-latency execution, making it an ideal boot drive or primary storage media for high-performance computing platforms.
A+ SLC & High-Endurance 3D NAND: Built with industrial 3D TLC flash and optional proprietary A+ SLC technology, achieving up to 100K P/E cycles for continuous 24/7 video recording, high-frequency logging, and OS boot durability.
Wide-Temperature Endurance: Fully certified and thermally screened to operate continuously across extreme industrial temperature ranges from -40°C to +85°C.
Power Loss Protection & Data Integrity: Advanced firmware-based Sudden Power-Off Protection (SPOP), LDPC ECC error correction, and Wear Leveling algorithms prevent file system corruption and data loss during sudden power outages.
Ruggedized Industrial Build: Equipped with 30µ” gold finger contact plating for connector longevity, ASTM B809-95 compliant anti-sulfurization resistors, and heavy resistance to shock (1500G) and vibration (20G).
