Mountain Secure Systems (MSS),a subsidiary of Phillips Service Industries (PSI) and supplier of rugged electronic solutions, announced that it has recently shipped an order of removable, ruggedized solid state drives (SSDs) to a leading defence contractor, which will be integrated into a pod system for the MQ-9 Reaper.
The removable 2.5” SATA memory devices mate with a customized docking bay and are environmentally sealed for protection against rapid decompression, EMI, humidity, dust, salt fog, immersion and condensation. The hot swappable device includes mini mil-circular connectors (rated for 100,000 insertion cycles), +28VDC power, EMI filters, and captive thumb screws for docking.
“Mountain Secure Systems is proud to be a part of this important programme,” said Ken Dickson, General Manager of Mountain Secure Systems. “Our ruggedized data storage solutions have been extremely dependable for both commercial and military customers.”
