ATA PC Cards SimpleTech ATA PC Cards are removable data storage in standard PC Card (PCMCIA) Type I, Type II and Type III form factors. ATA PC Cards provide the highest storage capacity available in any solid-state removable card. SimpleTech ATA PC Cards achieve sustained write speeds up to 1.5 Megabytes/second and burst speeds up to 8 Megabytes/second. Because of the popularity of PC Card slots in notebook systems, SimpleTech ATA PC Cards are the ideal choice for high capacity data transfer applications. ATA PC Cards are used in a wide variety of networking and telecommunications equipment, medical devices, and portable test and measurement systems.
