General Description SDM5 (SATA Disk Module 5) is Apacer s next generation disk-on-module (DOM) series that offers elevated speed boost and higher error correction capabilities. Built with SATA 6.0 Gb/s interface, SDM5 delivers high performance and wide compatibility. With its SATA interface compliance and compact size, this high-speed disk module defines an ideal balance of performance, capacities, reliability and cost. SDM5 is suitable in industrial applications and light operating systems for specific operations. The architectural nature of SATA disk module provides higher resistance to external environmental influences and better flexibility for motherboard space. Regarding data reliability, SDM5 is built in with powerful ECC engine that can correct up to 40-bit per 1KB data. In addition, the controller unit of this DOM device supports wear-leveling, SMART and power failure management for data integrity. With its trustable reliability, performance and cost effectiveness, Apacer s SDM5 is definitely the ideal storage or cache solution for embedded and industrial computers, servers and thin clients. 2.

It lists the specific capacity and the default numbers of heads, sectors and cylinders for each product line. Table 3-1: Capacity specifications Capacity Total bytes* Cylinders Heads Sectors Max LBA 8 GB 8,012,390,400 15,525 16 63 15,649,200 16 GB 16,013,942,784 16,383 16 63 31,277,232 32 GB 32,017,047,552 16,383 16 63 62,533,296 *Display of total bytes varies from file systems, which means not all of the bytes can be used for storage. **Notes: 1 GB = 1,000,000,000 bytes; 1 sector = 512 bytes. LBA count addressed in the table above indicates total user storage capacity and will remain the same throughout the lifespan of the device. However, the total usable capacity of the SSD is most likely to be less than the total physical capacity because a small portion of the capacity is reserved for device maintenance usages. 3.2 Performance Performances of SDM5 are listed below in table 3-2.

The prediction result for SDM5 is more than 2,000,000 hours. Notes about the MTBF: The MTBF is predicated and calculated based on Telcordia Technologies Special Report, SR-332, Issue 2 method. 3.5 Certification and Compliance SDM5 complies with the following standards: CE FCC RoHS Recast MIL-STD-810 6 © 2014 Apacer Technology Inc. Rev. 1.3 SATA-Disk Module 5 APSDMxxxxL3XD-XXX 4. Flash Management 4.1 Error Correction/Detection SDM5 implements a hardware ECC scheme, based on the BCH algorithm. It can detect and correct up to 40-bit error in 1K bytes. 4.2 Bad Block Management Current production technology is unable to guarantee total reliability of NAND flash memory array. When a flash memory device leaves factory, it comes with a minimal number of initial bad blocks during production or out-of-factory as there is no currently known technology that produce flash chips free of bad blocks. In addition, bad blocks may develop during program/erase cycles. When host performs program/erase command on a block, bad block may appear in Status Register. Since bad blocks are inevitable, the solution is to keep them in control. Apacer flash devices are programmed with ECC, block mapping technique and S.M.A.R.T to reduce invalidity or error. Once bad blocks are detected, data in those blocks will be transferred to free blocks and error will be corrected by designated algorithms. 4.3 Wear Leveling Flash memory devices differ from Hard Disk Drives (HDDs) in terms of how blocks are utilized. For HDDs, when a change is made to stored data, like erase or update, the controller mechanism on HDDs will perform overwrites on blocks. Unlike HDDs, flash blocks cannot be overwritten and each P/E cycle wears down the lifespan of blocks gradually. Repeatedly program/erase cycles performed on the same memory cells will eventually cause some blocks to age faster than others. This would bring flash storages to their end of service term sooner. Wear leveling is an important mechanism that level out the wearing of blocks so that the wearing-down of blocks can be almost evenly distributed. This will increase the lifespan of SSDs. Commonly used wear leveling types are Static and Dynamic. 4.4 Power Failure Management Power Failure Management plays a crucial role when experiencing unstable power supply. Power disruption may occur when users are storing data into the SSD. In this urgent situation, the controller would run multiple write-to-flash cycles to store the metadata for later block rebuilding. This urgent operation requires about several milliseconds to get it done. At the next power up, the firmware will perform a status tracking to retrieve the mapping table and resume previously programmed NAND blocks to check if there is any incompleteness of transmission. 4.5 ATA Secure Erase ATA Secure Erase is an ATA disk purging command currently embedded in most of the storage drives. Defined in ATA specifications, (ATA) Secure Erase is part of Security Feature Set that allows storage drives to erase all user data areas. The erase process usually runs on the firmware level as most of the ATA-based storage media currently in the market are built-in with this command. ATA Secure Erase can securely wipe out the user data in the drive and protects it from malicious attack. 7 © 2014 Apacer Technology Inc. Rev. 1.3 SATA-Disk Module 5 APSDMxxxxL3XD-XXX 4.6 TRIM TRIM is a SATA command that helps improve the read/write performance and efficiency of solid-state drives (SSD). The command enables the host operating system to inform SSD controller whick blocks contain invalid data, mostly because of the erase commands from host. The invalid will be discarded permanently and the SSD will retain more space for itself. 8 © 2014 Apacer Technology Inc. Rev. 1.3 SATA-Disk Module 5 APSDMxxxxL3XD-XXX 5. Software Interface 5.1 Command Set This section defines the software requirements and the format of the commands the host sends to SDM5. Commands are issued to SDM5 by loading the required registers in the command block with the supplied parameters, and then writing the command code to the Command register.

S.M.A.R.T. is an abbreviation for Self-Monitoring, Analysis and Reporting Technology, a self-monitoring system that provides indicators of drive health as well as potential disk problems. It serves as a warning for users from unscheduled downtime by monitoring and displaying critical drive information. Ideally, this should allow taking proactive actions to prevent drive failure and make use of S.M.A.R.T. information for future product development reference. Apacer devices use the standard SMART command B0h to read data out from the drive to activate our S.M.A.R.T. feature that complies with the ATA/ATAPI specifications. S.M.A.R.T. Attribute IDs shall 9 © 2014 Apacer Technology Inc. Rev. 1.3 SATA-Disk Module 5 APSDMxxxxL3XD-XXX include initial bad block count, total later bad block count, maximum erase count, average erase count, power on hours and power cycle. When the S.M.A.R.T. Utility running on the host, it analyzes and reports the disk status to the host before the device reaches in critical condition. Note: attribute IDs may vary from product models due to various solution design and supporting capabilities. Apacer memory products come with S.M.A.R.T. commands and subcommands for users to obtain information of drive status and to predict potential drive failures. Users can take advantage of the following commands/subcommands to monitor the health of the drive.

Once the system is reset and rebooted, the temporarily stored data will be lost and nowhere to be found in the system. Since the Virtual Write scheme runs at device level, it requires no software or driver installation and is independent from the host OS. Write Protect switch Enable Disable Note: Write Protect is optional. 13 © 2014 Apacer Technology Inc. Rev. 1.3 SATA-Disk Module 5 APSDMxxxxL3XD-XXX 8.
