SanDisk pSSD Modular SSD is used by 8 of 10 OEMs, enabling thin and durable netbook designs.

The new Malata pocket design netbook is compact, measuring 256X27X143mm thin with an 8.9 inch LCD screen, making portable computing easier than ever. Additional features include a built-in Webcam, Bluetooth, WiFi and an 8-second boot-up option. Equipped with an Intel Atom/Pineview processor, this device delivers enhanced performance and extended battery life, and runs Microsoft Windows 7 OS.

The SanDisk pSSD modular SSD Gen 2 measures only 30mm x 50.95mm x 3.6mm and weighs 6 grams, enabling Malata’s innovative pocket-size netbook design. The SanDisk pSSD modular SSD is a key enabler of the fast-growing netbook category of products due to its small footprint, durable solid-state design, low power consumption and fast performance. SanDisk pSSD modular SSD is ideally suited to the slim netbook shell where a HDD, with its spinning disk and bulky shape, is not an option.

We are pleased to have been selected by Malata as it delivers products for the growing Chinese market,” said Doreet Oren, director product marketing, solid state drives, SanDisk. “SanDisk adds Malata to its prestigious list of worldwide design wins that leverage pSSD’s unique features to bring small, light and extremely portable computing devices to market.”

As consumers continue to demand smaller and more powerful mobile computing devices, we are happy to surpass their expectations with products like our PC-98905 pocket netbook,” said Lai Jian Rong, general manager, PC division, Malata. “We worked closely with the SanDisk pSSD team to meet our stringent storage and design requirements, and our stylish new model is a result of that close collaboration.”

Features and benefits:

  • The SanDisk pSSD drive employs the speed and reliability of the popular SATA interface to provide a high-performance, cost-effective storage solution for smaller devices like netbooks.
  • The SanDisk pSSD drive’s light weight, compact size and low power consumption (average power (typical) of 0.3W) are well-matched for the Malata pocket design netbook’s specific requirements for a small form factor and extended battery usage time.
  • The SanDisk pSSD modular SSD helps Malata deliver greater performance to its users. It has the added benefit of employing nCache acceleration technology, a large non-volatile write cache technology that boosts burst random write performance. The nCache acceleration technology improves user responsiveness and helps prevent incidences of the drive ‘stalling.’

SanDisk pSSD Gen2 comes in a variety of PATA and SATA interfaces and is available in capacities ranging from 8GB to 64GB.
