Apacer’s SDM5A (SATA Disk Module 5A) is our next generation disk-on-module (DOM) series that offers elevated speed boost and higher error correction capabilities. Built with SATA 6.0 Gb/s interface, SDM5A delivers higher performance in data transfer than its previous SDM selections, reaching up to 34 MB/s in read and 55 MB/s in write.
With its SATA interface compliance and compact size, this high-speed disk module defines an ideal balance of performance, capacities, reliability and cost. SDM5A comes in moderate capacities that are suitable to boot industrial applications and light operating systems for specific operations, while with some extra memory space for data storage. The architectural nature of SATA disk module provides higher resistance to external environmental influences and better flexibility for motherboard space.

Regarding data reliability, SDM5A is built in with powerful ECC engine that can correct up to 40 bits per 1KB data. In addition, the controller unit of this DOM device supports wear-leveling, SMART and power failure management for data integrity. With its trustable reliability, performance and cost effectiveness, Apacer’s SDM5A is definitely the ideal storage or cache solution for embedded and industrial computers, servers and thin clients.
