Silicon Motion’s FerriSSD PCIe Gen 4×4 Embedded SSD has been shortlisted for the Electronics Excellence Awards under the Semiconductor category.
FerriSSD is a compact PCIe Gen4 NVMe SSD designed to serve as a reliable boot drive for AI servers and embedded computing platforms. It integrates the controller, 3D NAND flash, and passive components into a single BGA package, reducing board complexity while delivering fast, predictable boot performance.
The device is engineered to protect system firmware and operating system images through strong error correction, end-to-end data path protection, and robust power-loss recovery. For platforms where boot integrity, uptime, and long service life matter more than peak benchmark numbers, FerriSSD provides a stable, solder-down NVMe storage solution that behaves consistently across temperature, power, and workload conditions.
FerriSSD is intended for hardware and system design engineers developing AI servers, Edge AI platforms, and embedded systems that require a dependable NVMe boot device. Typical users include OEMs and ODMs designing inference servers, industrial Edge nodes, telecommunications infrastructure, factory automation controllers, and specialised embedded servers. It is particularly relevant for teams working with tight PCB area constraints, limited thermal headroom, or long lifecycle requirements, where removable storage is not ideal.
Engineers responsible for platform stability, secure boot, and field reliability will benefit most, especially when designing systems that must start reliably every time and remain in service for many years with minimal maintenance.
