Super Talent Introduces Industrial Temperature SSDs

Super Talent Technology announced a new line of Solid State Drives (SSDs) rated to operate within the -40°C to 85°C industrial temperature range (I-Temp).

Super Talent SSDs are interchangeable with conventional hard drives but are significantly more resistant to shock and vibration. Moreover, these new I-Temp SSDs have considerably better tolerance of extreme temperatures than hard drives. Super Talent’s range of nineteen new I-Temp SSDs spans industry standard 1.8-inch, 2.5-inch and 3.5-inch form factor SATA SSDs, and 1.8-inch and 2.5-inch IDE (PATA) SSDs.

The novelties are designed and manufactured at Super Talent's San Jose, California headquarters, and are backed with a 3-year warranty. Super Talent sells its SSDs directly to OEM customers worldwide. OEM pricing on the SS28A5C25I, 128GB 2.5-inch I-temp SATA SSD, is under $4000.
