Mtron SSD is a high performance storage device designed to solve the bottleneck of computing system by traditional hard disk drives. Mtron SSD can be drop-in replaced with the hard disk drives without any additional software installation. Customer can benefit instantly from Mtron SSD’s high random access performance and solve the legacy problem of access bottleneck by traditional hard disk drives.
Mtron SSD purely consists of semiconductor devices and NAND flash memories, which give rugged features against shock and vibration with an increased MTBF. Further more, Mtron SSD has highly elaborated and advanced flash memory management algorithm to guarantee high data integrity.
With Mtron SSD’s superior performance, reliability and durability, Mtron SSD increases overall performance and values of system in mobile computing and enterprise system solutions.
This is the 16GB, SATA, MOBI 3000, 2.5", standard temperature version.
Why Choose Mtron SSD Over Rotating Disks Or Other SSD?
1) Mtron SSD has far higher performance than other SSDs and standard HDDs.

2) Warranty - Mtron offer a three or five year warranty on all their drives - most competitors only offer one.
3) Mtron use SLC NAND flash chips on all their products.
SLC (Single-Level Cell) and MLC (Multi-Level Cell) are both NAND-based non-volatile memory technologies. MLC allows each storage cell to store 2 bits of information whilst SLC only allows 1. This means that MLC drives have one main advantage - compared to a similar SLC drive they will be cheaper due to the fewer flash devices needed (i.e. lower flash density).
SLC NAND flash is superior in a number of ways. It provides an enhanced level of performance in the form of faster read/write speeds. Due to the fact that SLC stores only one bit per cell, the chances or errors are greatly reduced. MLC flash requires 4 bit ECC whereas SLC only requires 2 bit ECC. As it happens, Mtron use 7 bit ECC - so the chances of error are even more reduced. Lastly, the endurance of SLC flash is far higher than MLC flash (10 times as many write cycles).
