The OWC / Other World Computing 60GB Mercury EXTREME Pro 3G SSD SATA 3.0Gb/s Solid-State Drive is designed for use with notebooks and desktops. It supports 3.0 Gb/s SATA and utilizes the latest Duraclass technology with a Sandforce processor to deliver a high transfer speed, endurance, performance, and power efficiency. The SSD features 64GB of total flash memory with 4GB space allocated for real-time data redundancy and error correction.
In addition to the RAISE (Redundant Array of Independent Silicon Elements) technology, the ECC protection also protects the data on your hard drive. The 60GB Mercury EXTREME Pro 3G SSD SATA 3.0Gb/s Solid-State Drive supports up to 100x greater data protection. The intelligent block management and wear leveling system evenly distributes the data over the hard drive. An intelligent read disturb management spreads the active read/write eliminating data corruption.
Advanced intelligent recycling ensures in space management by re-writing the data over the SSD. The 60GB Mercury EXTREME Pro 3G SSD SATA 3.0Gb/s Solid-State Drive has no moving parts, and a highly rugged storage solution offers faster system response.
