serial ata flash drive aps18p6axxxx-cxxx 3 ? 2011 apacer technology inc. rev. 1.0 1. product description 1.1 introduction apacer?s serial ata flash drive (safd) is a solid-state disk (ssd) drive that contains a controller, embedded firmware, and flash media along with a male connecto r. using nand flash memory devices, the safd drive interfaces with the host allowing data to be seamlessly transferred between the host and the flash devices. safd 18p drive is designed with a single-chip cont roller, offering capacities of up to 128 gigabytes and providing full support for the sata ii high-speed interfac e standard. it can operate at sustained access rates of up to higher than 200 megabytes per second, which is much more ideal for storage than traditional sata- based hard disk drive currently available on the market. in addition to buffer management through dynamical allo cation, safd 18p adopts the apacer-specific static wear-leveling scheme to allow uniform use of all storage blocks, ensuring that the lifetime of a flash media can be significantly increased and the disk performance is optimized as well. safd 18p provides the s.m.a.r.t. feature that follows the sata rev. 2.6, ata/atapi-7 specifications and uses the standard smart command b0h to read data from the drive. this feature protec ts the user from unschedul ed downtime by monitoring and storing critical drive performance. 1.2 functional block diagram safd 18p drive includes a single-chip sata ii contro ller and the flash media, as well as the sata standard interface. the controller integrates t he flash management unit with the controller itself to support multi-channel, multi-bank flash arrays. figure 1-1 shows the functional block diagram. figure 1-1 apacer safd 18p block diagram

serial ata flash drive aps18p6axxxx-cxxx 9 ? 2011 apacer technology inc. rev. 1.0 2.2 s.m.a.r.t. s.m.a.r.t. is an acronym for self-monitoring, analys is and reporting technology, an open standard allowing disk drives to automatically monitor their own health and report potential problems. it protects the user from unscheduled downtime by monitoring and st oring critical drive performance and calibration parameters. ideally, this should allow taking proactive actions to prevent impending drive failure. apacer safd 18p uses the standard smart command b 0h to read data from the drive for smart feature as the sata rev.2.6 ata/atapi-7 specifications. bas ed on the sff-8035i rev. 2.0 specifications, apacer smart defines 3 vendor-specified smart attribut e ids (e5h, eah-ebh, and e8h) in safd 18p. they represent flash id, maximum erase count, average erase count, good block count, free-list block count, and firmware version information. when the apacer smar t utility running on the host, it analyzes and reports the disk status to the host before safd 18p is in critical condition.
serial ata flash drive aps18p6axxxx-cxxx 10 ? 2011 apacer technology inc. rev. 1.0 3. flash management 3.1 error correction/detection safd 18p implements hardware ecc scheme based on t he bch algorithm which can detect and correct up to 16 bits or 24 bits error in 1024 bytes. 3.2 bad block management although bad blocks on the flash media are already ident ified by the flash manufacturer, they can also be accumulated over time during operation. safd 18p?s controller maintains a table that lists those normal blocks with disk data, the free blocks for wear leve ling, and bad blocks with errors. when a normal block is detected broken, it is replaced with a free block an d listed as a bad block. when a free block is detected broken, it is then removed from the fr ee block list and marked as a bad block. during device operation, this ensures that newly accumu lated bad blocks are transparent to the host. the device will stop file write service once there are only two free blocks left su ch that the read function is still available for copying the files from the disk into another. 3.3 wear leveling the nand flash devices are limited by a certain number of write cycles. when usin g a fat-based file system, frequent fat table updates are required. if some area on the flash wears out faster than others, it would significantly reduce the lifetime of the whole ssd, even if the erase count s of others are far from the write cycle limit. thus, if the write cycles can be distribute d evenly across the media, the lifetime of the media can be prolonged significantly. this scheme is called wear leveling. apacer?s wear-leveling scheme is achieved both via buffer management and apacer-specific static wear leveling. they both ensure that the lifetime of t he flash media can be increased, and the disk access performance is optimized as well. 3.4 power failure management the low power detection on the controller initiates crucial data saving before the power supplied to the device is too low. this feature prevents the device from crash and ensures data integrity during an unexpected power-off. 3.5 ata secure erase accomplished by the secure erase (se) command, wh ich added to the open ansi standards that control disk drives, ?ata secure erase? is built in to the disk drive itself and thus far less susceptible to malicious software attacks than external software utilities. it is a pos itive easy-to-use data destroy command, amounting to electronic data shredding. executing the command causes a drive to internally completely erase all possible user data. this command is carried out within disk drives, so no additional software is required. once executed, neither data nor the erase counter on the device would be recoverable, which blurs the accuracy of device lifespan. the process to erase will not be st opped until finished while encountering power failure, and will be continued when power is back on.
serial ata flash drive aps18p6axxxx-cxxx 11 ? 2011 apacer technology inc. rev. 1.0 3.6 trim made of millions of nand flash cells, ssd can be writt en into groups called pages in 4k size generally, but can only be erased in larger groups called blocks of 128 pages or 512kb. these stipulations are partially the source of many performance issues. until an address gets used again, the ssd has to keep track of every last bit of data that?s written on it. the ata-trim in struction tilts the balance in favor of the ssd. trim addresses a major part of the performance degradat ion issue over time that plagues all ssds. a trim enabled drive running an os with trim support will st ay closer to its peak performance over time.
