M7300 SSD Bench Top Production Tester

The M7300 is a 4 to 16 socket bench top SATA Tester targeted at developers, evaluation engineering, and medium volume production. Supported device types include SATA 2.5", 1.8", and module SSD's using SATA 1 (1.5 GB/sec) and SATA 2 (3.0 GB/sec) interfaces. Standard VCC support includes 5V and 3.3V supplies with optional support for drives requiring a 12V supply. 

Available M7300 configurations include 4, 8, 12, or 16 socket versions. The 16 socket M7300 version is made from four M7300 4 socket slices networked together using Gigabit Ethernet and mechanically stacked in a single metal frame. One of the M7300 slices acts as the master slice. Complete access to all slices is available using a four port KVM is and a single 17" LCD, Keyboard, and Mouse. 

Each M7300 slice is a full featured Linux Computer. A powerful GUI (Graphical User Interface) allows the user to easily build and edit  test scripts for complete test coverage of SATA SSD's as well as monitor and control all M7300 slices.

SSD power test functions include VCC and ICC margin testing as well as VCC random power on and off testing. Mode testing is included for PIO, DMA, and UDMA modes along with ATA pass through commands. A wide range of speed test parameters are available for measuring Read and Write speeds. Smart commands as well as a link to user defined scripts are easily executed. Script commands support both LBA28 and LBA48 SATA command streams. Low Level Format commands are supported on an individual controller specific level.

UUT's (Units Under Test) are plugged into an easily changed socket adapters. The UUT connector interface is the standard SATA connector. Other connectors such as the micro SATA connectors can be easily accommodated.

Duplication functions include use of a Master device placed in the first socket. Smart Copy Functions are available that allow fast duplication of FAT, NFTS, HFS+, EXT2 and EXT3 formatted drives.

Each M7300 slice is a full featured Linux Computer using an Intel E6600 2.4GHz Core 2 Duo CPU Processor with 1GB RAM Running Standard Linux 2.6 Kernel and includes a large 300GB 3.5" Hard Drive.
