Link_A_Media Devices

Link_A_Media Devices was founded in March 2004 with a vision to develop custom, integrated system solutions on a chip for linking digital information within and across different media devices. Link_A_Media Devices is a leader in data recovery and data storage technologies. Its technologies in complex, mixed-signal processing and iterative error correction coding are capable of delivering the highest areal densities and yields, while reducing system power consumption. These advantages enable HDD and solid-state OEM's to more effectively leverage their investments in media and sensor (head) technologies.

  • editor's note:- in April 2008 - Link_A_Media secured $22 million in Series B financing.

    Its error correction technology could improve yields and data reliability in HDDs and SSDs.

    Another side effect of their technology may be better performance in flash SSDs.

    Link_A_Media says their IOP Buster architecture enables scalability within the controller to address various segments of SSD applications seamlessly. It enables faster Read and Write transfers to achieve prescribed IOP requirements.

    In November 2009 - Link_A_Media Devices secured $18 million series C funding.

Data Integrity Challenges in flash SSD Design
Editor:- October 16, 2009 - StorageSearch.com recently published a new article called - Data Integrity Challenges in flash SSD Design - written by Kent Smith Senior Director, Product Marketing, SandForce.

Since bursting onto the SSD scene in April 2009, SandForce has achieved remarkably high reader popularity. How did a company whose business is designing SSD controllers achieve this? - especially when the direct market for its products today numbers less than 1,000 oems.

The answer is - that if you want to know what the future of 2.5" enterprise SATA SSDs might look like -you have to look at the leading technology cores that will affect this market. Even if you're not planning to use SandForce based products yourself - you can't afford to ignore them - because they are setting the agenda.

Reliability is the next new thing for SSD designers and users to start worrying about.
