Since its introduction in 2008, the Indilinx Barefoot SSD processor has set the industry standard for solid state drive performance, stability, and reliability. Barefoot offers SSD manufacturers unsurpassed flexibility in optimizing their designs for performance and cost. 

• SATA Revision 2.0 – Supports 3Gbps and 1.5Gbps interface speeds
• 512GB maximum capacity
• Wide compatibility with NAND flash memory – both SLC and MLC
• High reliability - Advanced BCH ECC engine can correct up to 16 bits / 512B
• Efficient NAND flash management – Flash Translation Layer, dynamic and static wear-leveling, and background garbage collection
• Performance consistency - No performance degradation between compressible and incompressible data
• Mobile SDRAM interface for user data cache and system metadata
