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.”
