2.11 Assembly Weight
The Innodisk 1.8” SATA SSD 3SE with SLC flash ICs weighs approximately 40 grams for 8GB
capacities. The total weight of SSD will be less than 45 grams.
2.12 Seek Time
Innodisk 1.8” SATA SSD 3SE does not have magnetic rotating motor so there is no seek or
rotational latency for this drive.
2.13 Hot Plug
The SSD supports the hot plug function and can be removed or connected when the system is
powered on. The user has to avoid hot plugging the SSD when it is configured as the boot drive
with the operating system installed.
Surprise hot plug : The insertion of a SATA device into a backplane (combine signal and power)
that has power present. The device powers up and initiates an OOB
sequence.
Surprise hot removal: The removal of a SATA device from a powered backplane, without first being
disabled.
2.14 NAND Flash Memory
Innodisk 1.8” SATA SSD 3SE uses Single-Level Cell (SLC) NAND flash memory, which is
non-volatile and highly reliable.

3. Theory of Operation
3.1 Overview
Figure 2 shows the operation of Innodisk 1.8” SATA SSD 3SE from the system level, including the
major hardware blocks.
Figure 2: Innodisk 1.8” SATA SSD 3SE Block Diagram
Innodisk 1.8” SATA SSD 3SE integrates a SATA III controller and NAND flash memory.
Communication with the host occurs through the host interface using standard Serial ATA protocol.
Communication with the flash memory occurs through Innodisk’s SATA III controller.
3.2 SATA III Controller
Innodisk 1.8” SATA SSD 3SE is designed with ID 167, a SATA III 6.0Gbps (Gen. 3) controller. The
Serial ATA physical link and transport layers are compliant with Serial ATA Gen 1, Gen 2 and Gen
3 specification (Gen 3 supports 1.5Gbps/3.0Gbps/6.0Gbps data rate). The controller has a four
channel bandwidth for accessing the NAND flash memory
3.3 Error Detection and Correction
Highly sophisticated Error Correcting Code algorithms are implemented into the controller. The
ECC unit consists of the parity unit (parity-byte generation) and the syndrome unit
(syndrome-byte computation). These units implement an algorithm that can correct 40 bits per
1024 bytes in an ECC block. Code-byte generation during write operations, as well as error

1.8” SATA SSD 3SE
15 Rev. 1.1 TPS, Jan. 2015
detection during read operation, is implemented on the fly without any decrease in performance.
3.4 Wear-Leveling
Flash memory can be only be erased a limited number of times. This number is called the erase
cycle limit or write endurance limit and is defined by the NAND flash memory vendor. The
erase cycle limit applies to each individual block in the flash device.
Innodisk 1.8” SATA SSD 3SE uses a static wear-leveling algorithm to ensure that consecutive
writes of a specific sector are not written physically to the same page/block in the flash. This
spreads data usage evenly across all blocks while prolonging the lifecycle of the NAND flash
memory.
3.5 Bad Blocks Management
Bad Blocks are blocks that contain one or more invalid bits whose reliability are not guaranteed.
Bad Blocks may be present when the SSD is shipped, and may also develop over the lifetime of the
SSD. When Bad Blocks are detected, it will be flagged so that block will not be used anymore.
Bad Block management, Bad Block replacement, and Error Correcting Code are implemented to
avoid storing/accessing data errors. These functions are enabled automatically to transfer data
from Bad Blocks to spare blocks, and also correct error bits.
3.6 Power Cycling
Innodisk’s power cycling management is a complete data protection system that functions before
and after a sudden loss of power to Innodisk’s SSD. A Low-power detection circuit terminates
data writes before an abnormal power cycle. Once power is restored, table-remapping deletes
corrupted data to maintain data integrity. Innodisk’s power cycling management also prevents
data stored in flash from degrading overtime.
3.7 Garbage Collection/TRIM
Garbage collection and TRIM technology is used to maintain performance consistency by
continuously cleaning blocks marked for deletion on SSDs. The garbage collection runs as a
background process to have a minimal impact on the controller’s resources while combining valid
data into available blocks, and erasing blocks marked for deletion. This process also significantly
reduces write operations to the drive, thereby increasing the SSD’s lifespan.
