The MSD-S series SSD below shows an ad here by Mtron on StorageSearch.com as it looked in 2007.

Mtron burst onto the SSD market in February 2007 - when - amid competing claims from various other oems Mtron launched the fastest 2.5" PATA SSD - with 80MB/s sustained write.

In the same month they placed their first ads here on StorageSearch.com. Mtron advertised here on the mouse site for 15 months and were so successful at attracting oem partners and industry recognition that they didn't need to do any more for a long while.

In Q4 2007 Mtron was #3 in the Top SSD Companies list.

And in May 2008 - Toshiba acquired approximately $30 million of shares in Mtron.
