Apacer’s AS2242 is the next generation modularized Solid State Drive (SSD) with the shape of all new M.2 form factor, aimed to be the more suitable for mobile and compact computers. AS2242 appears in M.2 2242 mechanical dimensions and is believed to be the leading add-in storage solution for future host computing systems. M.2 is designed with SATA-based connector pinouts, providing full compliance with the latest SATA Revision 3.2 interface specifications. Aside from SATA compliance, AS2242 delivers exceptional performance and power efficiency. On the other hand, the extreme thin and light form factor makes AS2242 the ideal choice for mobile computing systems, which appears to be the trend in near future. AS2242 supports wear levelling, S.M.A.R.T. and NCQ command. In addition, to enhance data integrity, AS2242 is built with a powerful ECC engine in the controller unit, correcting up to 72bit per 1K Byte data. For better I/O performance, the controller unit comes with a SDR cache buffer and data processing units to strengthen the IOPS (Input Output Per Second) of the device, proving to be the ideal companion for PC and laptop users.
