Legacy Systems

Solid State Disks Ltd

Dependable Data Storage Solutions

Many legacy systems incorporate data storage devices that rely heavily on the continued health and operation of drives with moving parts and yesteryear’s storage media (magnetic disks and tapes and floppy and optical discs for example).

Because of their age, such storage devices are becoming increasingly unreliable. However:

  • New like-for-like replacements are not available – they are now obsolete.
  • Refurbished second-hand like-for-like placements, when they can be found, carry short warrantees.

We provide solid-state swap-in replacements that emulate the functionality of your legacy storage device. They are matched to your host systems, so there’s no need to change your application software.

Our emulators incorporate modern flash memory ICs (so no moving parts), are highly reliable and can be maintained for a guaranteed seven years. Also, all come with the option of our lease-maintenance service.

You can find your ideal emulator by using our product selector.

And if none of our wide range of solutions meet your requirements, we offer a full turnkey solution. We can also reverse engineer old storage devices for which the original design information is no longer available.

Solid-State Replacements for Failing Legacy Drives

Our products are swap-in replacements for a wide range of SCSI drives (SASI, SCSI-1, SCSI-2 and Ultra3) PATA / IDE and ESDI drives. No changes need to be made to your host system.

Features include:

  • Industrial grade Compact Flash (CF) or SATA based CFast / M.2.
  • Up to 1TB (TLC) for non-mission critical applications and up to 64GB (SLC) for fixed disk heavy read/write mission-critical applications.
  • Up to 100,000 read-write cycles.
  • Approved for use in mil-aero, nuclear, power and network equipment-building systems (NEBS) applications.
  • A variety of Windows-based memory management tools can be used on drives fitted with an (optional) Ethernet port.
