Since CompactFlash Association released the specification of CFast 2.0, Apacer has introduced what they claim to be the world's first industrial-grade SATA 3.0 (6Gb/s) high-speed transmission interface CFast 2.0 memory card. Its sequential speed is up to 310 or 240MB/sec, which doubles the speed of its predecessor.

Besides featuring a 2-Channel bidirectional structure, the CFast 2.0 also adopts Toggle DDR 2.0 NAND Flash, which brings its performance to a higher level. To ensure the accuracy of data, Apacer's just-launched CFast 2.0 memory card supports the functions of 40-bit ECC (Error Correcting Code), Wear Leveling Technology and S.M.A.R.T. (Self-Monitoring, Analysis and Reporting Technology) to detect the health status of the memory card at any time and in turn to significantly boost the reliability of the product.

In addition, clients can also add the customised Apacer's unquie security instruction (CoreSecurity Technology) - CoreProtector. Users can drive the instructions through hardware and software settings, which are especially suitable for applications in military, gaming and network communication.

Jeff Lin, Director, Embedded Application Business Unit, Apacer, comments: “Except that Apacer CFast 2.0 memory card is upgraded to double performance and speed, in order to meet the needs of harsh environment of industrial application and corporate cost-effectiveness, Apacer provides customers with choices between highly-durable SLC chip or highly cost-effective MLC chip. Both chips are resistant to temperature change, vibration and shock in actual environment. Each kind of chip has a capacity of 4-32GB and 16-128GB respectively, with dimensions of 42.8x36.4x3.6mm and an adoption of (7+17) pin connector. Support for DEVSLP (Device Sleep) power mode enables them to switch into a low power state on standby mode so as to save power for companies.”
