Tech Brief: Solid State Drives

Protecting sensitive data and IP is essential for many applications. For defense, communications, medical, industrial automation and transportation systems, securing data is mandatory. Mercury is dedicated to developing the most secure self-encrypting solid state drives (SSD) to accomplish this mission.

From the outset, Mercury engineers our SSDs for applications where data protection is mission critical but also where performance and density are important. Using SLC, MLC, and TLC NAND flash memory coupled with our ARMOR NAND controller, our drives exhibit unparalleled reliability, performance, and security even in the harshest environments.
