TSM-300X Board Level Computer

TSM-300X is a 3U VPX storage module which can be fitted with either a rotating or solid state drive. The module can accept data from a variety of sources, including PCI Express, Serial ATA (SATA) or Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) data buses. The Solid State Drive (SSD) configuration features FLASH memory. This drive is designed for rugged and conduction cooled applications. At the current time, drive capacities are available up to 256 GB per module. The Rotating Hard Disk Drive (HDD) is only intended for Level 1, commercial temperature range usage, and shock and vibration consistent with laboratory or development usage. With the associated T_RAID-300X module, the SSD supports Non- Destructive MIL PURGE (ZEROIZE) and Quick PURGE commands via the SATA interface in accordance with NSA, USAF, USN and other government agency specifications. The SSD will also support User Definable Custom PURGE functions.

The SSD configuration supports a PURGE discrete to the module, if the SSD manufacturer supports that feature. Using the PURGE discrete, the system can command an instantaneous destructive PURGE of the module. This discrete is intended to be used for emergency PURGE of the SSD. Once the SSD is PURGED in this manner, it is no longer readable or usable.
