Ushering in A New Era in Mobile Computing
SanDisk's line of products that is shifting a growing range of markets from the hard disk drive to flash-based storage, including: mobile computing, low-cost PCs and blade servers. SanDisk SSD product families deliver far superior durability and higher performance, particularly for OS boot and application load. As the cost of flash declines dramatically, users can now benefit both from an enhanced overall experience and from a reduced total cost of ownership (TCO).
Backed by a vast NAND flash IP portfolio and operational excellence, SanDisk enables OEMs, ODMs, integrators and users to take advantage of a superb product offering.




Users of PC applications equipped with SanDisk G3 SSDs will notice the significant difference from the moment they power up their machines. The great speed manifests itself in a number of ways: Reading and writing data, booting the operating system and launching applications. Not only do users of laptops with SanDisk G3 SSDs get started faster, they keep going in the same way.
SanDisk G3 SSDs stand to get five times as fast as the fastest 7,200 RPM HDDs, clocking in at up to 40,000 vRPM(2,5) and anticipated sequential performance of 200MB/s read and 140MB/s write4.
Three key features developed by SanDisk enable this exciting performance: ExtremeFFSTM, a new SSD algorithm, allows random write performance to potentially improve by as much as 100 times over conventional algorithms; reliable 43nm multi-level cell (MLC) all bit-line (ABL) NAND flash; and SanDisk’s new SSD controller, which ties together the NAND and the algorithm.
With this in mind, SanDisk G3 SSDs are ideal storage solutions for mobile end users and others who rely heavily on the data they keep in their laptops because:
SanDisk G3 SSDs offer mean time to failure (MTTF)1 rates of up to 6 times higher than those of rotating HDDs(1,5).
They have no moving parts, so SanDisk G3 SSDs are especially durable. Rated to perform at 40 times the shock levels of HDDs5.
SanDisk G3 SSDs provide a Longterm Data Endurance (LDE) of 160 terabytes written (TBW) for the 240GB version, sufficient for over 100 years of typical user usage.3
Exceptional reliability like this results in fewer system repairs which leads to reduced IT costs and a better total cost of ownership (TCO).
