Memorysolution GmbH introduces the first Solid State Drive (SSD) from MAXFLASH. The question why Memorysolution launches this new product now and not earlier was answered by Gerald Diercks with a persuasive smile: "We intentionally took our time with the introduction to the market, because with Rapstore we are offering a fast, reliable and yet reasonably priced SSD. It is important for us to use high quality components, such as a fast controller with cache memory."

Rapstore is defined by high-speed, performance and reliability:

- MLC-technology
- Read up to 230 MB/s
- Write up to 160 MB/s
- 64 MB Cache
- Compatible with SATA Interface (SATA I/II)
- Low power consumption (410 mA)
- Voltage: 4,5 V ~ 5,5 V
- Shock-proof up to 1500 G max
- ROHS compliant

- Silent: no latency delay
- NAND flash: Samsung
- Controller: Indilinx (Barefoot) IDX110M00-LC

The MAXFLASH Rapstore SSD is available in 128 and 256 GB. Warranty is 3 years. It is an ultra reliable feather weight: 80g (2.82 oz.). Extremely shock and vibration resistant and can be operated in an extremely wide temperature range, it is silent and has almost no heat emission. MAXFLASH targets markets such as notebooks, desktop-PCs, gaming-PCs and work stations. Another clever application is to use the SSD as the booting and system board with all programs saved on it while data is saved on a regular HDD.

SSDs especially shine under extreme conditions: dirt, shocks, vibrations, pressure changes, and magnetic fields, where regular HDDs cannot be used. For example a the electromagnetic field emitted by a larger speaker can potentially erase all data on an HDD. An SSD on the other hand is quite unaffected by every-day magnetic fields.
