Embedded Flash Memory with Industry-Leading Ruggedness
and Performance
MACH2 and MACH4 Compact Flash (CF) cards from HGST are designed for embedded
applications that demand ultimate reliability with high tolerance to shock, vibration,
humidity, altitude and temperature.
HGST MACH2 cards are a 2-channel design that supports Ultra Direct Memory Access
(UDMA) and True IDE modes for hard disk equivalent performance, with sharply reduced
power consumption. MACH2 cards provide a wide range of capacities from 128MB to 16GB,
with multiple configurations to meet application throughput requirements, including
smaller sector, random or larger sector, and sequential transfers.
HGST MACH4 cards feature an ultra high-performance, 4-channel design that supports
UDMA and True IDE modes, making it an ideal entry-level parallel ATA (PATA) solid-state
drive (SSD). The MACH4 card is the perfect solution for high-throughput applications and
transitioning from low-capacity PATA hard drives to SSD technology.
Industrial-Grade Embedded Storage with Ruggedness and Reliability
Small-footprint HGST CF cards are ideal for space-constrained embedded applications,
including industrial devices, professional media, telecom and networking equipment,
military, aerospace and automotive systems. HGST CF cards incorporate industrial-strength
flash management technology for high-data integrity in rugged, high-endurance designs
that tolerate industrial temperature ranges (-40°C to +85°C).
Features and Benefits
Feature / Function Benefits
