Supermicro SATA DOM (SuperDOM) - solid state drive - 16 GB - SATA 6Gb/s

The Supermicro SATA DOM (Disk on Module), the SuperDOM, is a small SATA3 (6Gb/s) flash memory module designed to be conveniently inserted into a serverboard SATA connector to provide high performance solid state storage capacity that simulates a hard disk drive (HDD). Supermicro SATA DOMs are extremely reliable without any moving parts like standard HDDs and are smaller in size and lighter in weight with greatly improved performance, latency and power consumption. The Supermicro SuperDOM operates up to 2x faster than other SATA DOM products in the industry. Due to its optimized design the Supermicro SuperDOM does not require a 5V power cable as do other SATA DOM products on the market, thus improving performance and reliability. However, it is still backward compatible with server boards requiring this 5V power cable. The Supermicro SuperDOM has a big capacity and supports all Supermicro SuperServer products and solutions. The Supermicro SuperDOM is designed for use as a boot drive, backup recovery device, license drive, OS installation device, embedded system storage element, or in a thin client due to its small size and power requirements. The Supermicro SuperDOM can be ordered as an integrated unit with all Supermicro SuperServer systems to create additional customer value.
