NANDrive includes built-in microcontroller and file management firmware that communicates with ATA-standard interfaces, eliminating the need for additional or proprietary host software such as Flash File System (FFS) or Memory Technology Driver (MTD) software. Selected as the small form factor SSD choice of tier one companies in the communications, industrial, medical and networking markets, NANDrive products are available in capacities ranging from 512 MByte to 8 GByte and support industrial temperature ranges. Higher capacity NANDrive products will be announced soon."
