Compact SSD provides enables data integrity


Manufactured using CNC-machined aluminium, the SSD is available in silver, blue, red and black with pearl blasted and hard-anodised finish. Featuring a robust type-A USB 3.0 port, the SSD suitable for demanding applications, with transfer rates of 450MB/s (read) and 390MB/s (write). These transfer rates are made possible through the implementation of UASP (USB Attached SCSI Protocol), which uses the Silicon Motion 2246EN-controller. Only custom packed original micron NAND (16nm/L95B) parts are used by the SSD.

To manufacture the SSD2go pocket, Angelbird used vapour-phase soldering. Although this form of soldering is more time consuming than reflow soldering, it provides an MTBF of more than 2m hours.

 This allows the company to offer a 5-year warranty on the SSD. Featuring 'straight from the box' compatibility with computers, TV sets and a range of multimedia devices for the car and home, the SSD is very user-friendly. The SSD also supports USB On-The-Go (OTG).

According to Angelbird, the SSD2go pocket is the only mobile SSD of its kind that can process TRIM and SMART commands.
