FREMONT, CA, April 29, 2008 —SMART Modular Technologies (WWH), Inc. (SMART) (NASDAQ: SMOD), a leading independent manufacturer of memory modules, solid state drives, embedded computing subsystems, and TFT-LCD display products, today announced the release of “true” industrial-grade 2.5-inch solid state drives (SSDs) by its subsidiary, Adtron Corporation. Based on the latest 8Gb Flash technology, these new drives feature densities up to 128GB, the highest density available in the industry for single level cell (SLC) SSDs in a 2.5-inch (9.5mm-high) form factor. Equipped with a parallel ATA (PATA) or 3Gbs serial ATA (SATA) interface, the new drives deliver improved write performance and a 4X improvement in storage density over previous generation SSDs.

By leveraging the latest 50nm 8Gb Flash technology, these new SSDs offer higher density, reduction in height as compared to SSDs equipped with previous generations of NAND Flash technology, and an attractive lower price. Available in configurations of 32, 64, and 128GB, the new A25FB-3 and I25FB-3 drives offer sustained performance of up to 72MB/s read and 57MB/s write.

The new SSDs are tested to meet a “true” industrial-grade standard, which includes eight hours of comprehensive test while temperature is cycled through its rated range. In addition, the drives are certified to meet a wide range of environmental requirements, including temperature, shock, vibration, electromagnetic compatibility (EMC), altitude, and current defense industry standards, making them well suited for applications requiring industrial-grade storage solutions. The drives are available in both commercial (0 – 70º C operating) and industrial (-40 to 85º C operating) temperature ranges.

“Advances in Flash technology continue to drive new applications,” explained Wade Campbell, Director, SSD Marketing and Product Management. “With their increased density and improved price/performance, these new drives enable us to deliver an even wider range of industrial-grade applications in the defense and industrial markets. They also provide a base platform for higher performance SSDs that we expect to release in the coming months.”

Early access A25FB-3 SATA SSD units are available now, with general availability expected by mid-summer. The I25FB-3 PATA SSDs are scheduled for general availability in calendar Q3 2008. For more information about industrial-grade SSD products, please visit www.smartm.com.
