Foremay, Inc., a leader of technology innovation in rugged solid state drives and one of the world's Top SSD companies, announced today its EC188 series rugged VPX SSD drives. These military and aerospace grade VPX SSDs offer the world's largest capacity with each single card up to 16 TB. Furthermore, Foremay's rugged VPX SSD drives bring unprecedented performance with read/write speeds up to 6.5/6.2 GB/s, and random read/write IOPS at 4KB up to 550K/600K. These cutting-edge features help defense and aerospace system builders design their next generation systems for air, space, ground (including sand, mud & wetland), and underwater applications.

The COVID-19 pandemic did not stop our sustained pace in seeking continuing excellence in technology innovation in rugged solid state drives," said Dr. Jack Winters, Foremay's CTO and co-founder. "Our rugged VPX SSDs were created during a harsh economic environment, and they will serve well in harsh deployment environments."Foremay's rugged VPX military-grade SSD is further enhanced with special features including military secure erase, encryption, write protection, radiation hardening, and self-destruction under emergency situations. They can tolerate extreme vibration and shock conditions that meet or exceed MIL-STD-810G standards. The VPX SSDs can operate in extreme cold and hot temperatures ranging from -50 °C to 90 °C, or even wider under special orders. Taking advantage of advanced thermal throttle technologies, the read/write speed is intelligently adapted when operating in extremely high-temperature environment.
