-910S/910S-P1 series SSD is a high capacity solid-state flash memory product that complies with the Serial ATA 3.0 standard and is functionally compatible with a SATA hard disk drive. Cactus Technologies ® -910S/910S-P1 series SSD provide up to 640GB of formatted storage capacity.
The defect management is completely transparent to the host and does not consume any user data space. The soft error rate for Cactus Technologies ® Industrial SSD is much lower than that of magnetic disk drives.
Cactus Technologies, Limited These defect and error management systems, coupled with the solid-state construction, give Cactus Technologies ® Industrial SSDs unparalleled reliability. 1.2.3. Power Supply Requirements Cactus Technologies ® Industrial SSD operates at a voltage range of 5.0 volts ± 10%.
Cactus Technologies, Limited 3.Interface Description The following sections provide detailed information on the Cactus Technologies ® Industrial SSD interface. 3.1. SSD Pin Assignments and Pin Type Cactus Technologies ® SSD uses industry standard 7+12 SATA connector. The signal/pin assignments and descriptions are listed in Table 3-5.

Cactus Technologies, Limited 4.1.2. Error Register This register contains additional information about the source of an error when an error is indicated in bit 0 of the Status register. The bits are defined as follows: IDNF ABRT AMNF Bit 7 (BBK) This bit is set when a Bad Block is detected.
Cactus Technologies, Limited 4.1.8. Drive/Head (LBA 27-24) Register The Drive/Head register is used to select the drive and head. It is also used to select LBA addressing instead of cylinder/head/sector addressing. The bits are defined as follows: Bit 7 This bit is set to 1.
Cactus Technologies, Limited 4.1.10. Device Control Register This register is used to control the drive interrupt request and to issue an ATA soft reset to the drive. The bits are defined as follows: SW Rst -IEn Bit 7 This bit is used in 48-bit addressing mode. When cleared, the host can read the most recently written values of the Sector Count,Drive/Head and LBA registers.
Cactus Technologies, Limited 5.ATA Command Description This section defines the ATA command set supported by Cactus Technologies ® -910S/910S-P1 series SSDs. 5.1. ATA Command Set Table 5-6 summarizes the supported ATA command set . Table 5-6. ATA Command Set COMMAND...

Cactus Technologies, Limited 7.2.2. Enabling and Using Encryption Here are the recommended steps to enable and use the AES256 hardware encryption feature: 1. Start with a blank drive – any data that existed before encryption is enabled will be lost once encryption is enabled as the data will be scrambled when sent through the decryption engine.

Cactus Technologies, Limited echo “- - -” > /sys/class/scsi_host/host<n>/scan Where host<n> is that host channel where the drive is attached to (e.g. host0, host 1, etc.). This will force the OS to rescan for any disk attached to that host channel. The drive will then be detected and automatically mounted.
