Active Media Products Unveils 82MB/sec Dell® Mini 9 SSD Upgrade

New PCIe SSD Uses Phison® Controller, MLC NAND Flash and PATA Interface to Achieve New Performance Levels in Mini 9

May 27, 2009 - Active Media Products announced today new 16GB and 32GB PCIe SSDs designed specifically for Dell Inspiron® Mini 9 upgrades that delivers sequential read speeds up to 82MB per second and sequential write speeds up to 38MB per second.

These new SSDs incorporate a Mini PCI Express connector in tandem with Parallel ATA signaling as used in the Dell Mini 9. Furthermore the mounting holes were positioned precisely for the Mini 9, and both these SSDs have been tested extensively in the Mini 9 to ensure complete compatibility for hassle-free upgrades. Based on a Phison PATA-to-NAND controller, advanced features like ECC and wear leveling come standard. Both these SSDs will begin shipping to resellers in the next two weeks. "These new Half Mini PCIe SSDs are twice as fast as other Mini 9 storage options, and will give a welcome performance boost to millions of Mini 9 users", said Jerry Thomson, vice president of marketing at Active Media Products.
