  • editor's comments:- August 2011- 4 years ago in 2007 - Joe Koyanagi (who was at that time US Sales Manager at Hagiwara Sys-Com) impressed on me the future importance of what he called the 1 inch SSD form factor (a convenient phrase for very small form factor SSD chips and modules - none of which are actually 1 inch in size). He said - "1 inch is the next 2.5 inch!"

    For alternative SSD suppliers take a look at these directories:- 1" SSDs, 1.8" SSDs, 2.5" SSDs, 3.5" SSDs and industrial SSDs.

In March 2009 - Hagiwara Sys-Com extended its range of 1" SSDs - with the launch of the CFast Storage Card which will ship in Q2. These industrial grade SSDs are form factor compatible with CF cards, but have a SATA interface. Capacities range from 2GB to 16GB. See also:- CFast - Evolution (pdf)

This article will help you understand why some SSDs which (work perfectly well in one type of application) might fail in others... even when the changes in the operational environment appear to be negligible.
