MACH2 2.5-Inch Serial ATA Solid State Drive
Shock
The SSD is shock-tested in accordance with MIL-STD-810F and will operate as specified, without
degradation, when subjected to the following conditions outlined in Table 25.
Table 25.
Shock Test Results
Drop Testing
The SSD will withstand three (3) drops on a concrete floor from 1.524m (60 inches) on each of six
(6) axes, +/-X, +/-Y, and +/-Z, without any damage when packaged.
Conformal Coating (Optional)
The factory can apply an optional conformal coating to the electronic circuitry of the SSD to further
protect against moisture, dust, chemicals and temperature extremes. The material coating may
actually reduce the effects of mechanical stress and vibration on the circuitry.
The coating material should achieve an approximate thickness of between 50 and 100 micrometers
after curing. A thicker coating may be required when liquid water is present due to microscopic
pinhole formation when the coating material thins on the sharp edges of components. Enough
material is applied to complete cover the components to a depth equal to or greater than the highest
metallic conductor on the PCB.
The conformal coating physical characteristics meet IPC-CC-830 regulations for the qualification and
performance of electrical insulating compounds for printed wiring assemblies. The workmanship
standard is in accordance with IPC-A610, Section 10.5.2.
The HumiSeal 1B31 Acrylic or equivalent coating is applied to both sides of the PCB, and masks the
connector body and pins of the connectors, and some component topsides.
