IM2P33F8 PCIe Gen3x4 – Alternative to SATA SSDs
With a price tag comparable to SATA SSDs, the IM2P33F8 is an alternative for upgrading systems and installations, from laptops to surveillance systems. Utilizing 3D NAND flash it provides R/W performance of up to 2,050/1,600MB/s, as well as reliability, durability, and stability. It supports Host Memory Buffer (HMB) technology, enabling it to enhance random R/W performance. For upholding data integrity and safety, the IM2P33F8 supports End-to-End (E2E) Data Protection to keep data consistent along the entire data transfer path, while support for RAID engine reduces the risk of data loss due to drive failure. IM2P33F8 is available in capacities ranging from 128 to 512GB, and features a slim single-sided design for compatibility.

IM2S3168 6Gb SATA M.2 2280 – Multiple data protection technologies
It is for a range of systems and installations, and offers up to 1TB of sorted and tested 2nd generation 3D TLC NAND, meeting the company’s A+ quality standards. It provides R/W speeds of up to 540MB/510MB/s via the 6Gb SATA protocol. Thanks to the compact dimensions of the M.2 2280 form factor, the IM2S3168 requires less room than 2.5″ SATA drives. But most notable are the multiple data protection technologies supported by this SSD, including SM4 algorithm, AES 256-bit encryption, TCG Opal 2.0, and ‘End-to-End Data Protection‘. With the firm’s SSD ToolBox software users have multiple ways to obtain disk information, and change settings easily. Additionally, it can speed up SSD performance and improve its lifespan.

Testing assures industrial-grade strength
The IM2S3168 and IM2P33F8 design process mandated certification to a temperature range of 0°C to 70°C. They can operate normally in 0% to 95% humidity and  handle up to 20G vibration plus up to 1,500G/0.5ms shocks. These SSD are hardened against electro-static and electromagnetic interference and support TRIM command, S.M.A.R.T, and wear leveling for improved data integrity and functionality over long periods of time.

These result in an cost-performance ratio that is attractive to commercial users.
