Functional Blocks
The ATA series of Zeus solid state drives comprise the following primary functional component
blocks: The ATA (IDE) bus interface connector, the SSD controller and NAND flash memory.
ATA (IDE) Bus Interface Block
This section provides information on the ATA (IDE) Bus interface connector used with the 2.5-inch
Zeus SSD.
2.5-Inch 44-Pin ATA Bus Connector
The 2.5-inch Zeus SSD is equipped with a 44-pin ATA bus connector. See Figure 3. DC power and
IDE bus traffic is supplied through a non-shielded 44-conductor I/O cable.
Figure 3. 44-pin ATA (IDE) Bus Connector
Zeus SSDs have a plastic key to block pin 20 on the ATA bus
(IDE) interface connector. Blocking pin 20 prevents possible
damage to the SSD by making it impossible to connect to the
drive improperly.
ATA standards require 80-conductor cables to be used for
Ultra DMA modes 3 through 5. The length of the cable shall
not exceed 18 inches.
