The Supermicro SuperDOM can be ordered as an integrated unit with all Supermicro SuperServer® systems to create additional customer value. The Supermicro SuperDOM is designed for use as a boot drive, backup recovery device, license drive, OS installation device (replacing CD/DVD-ROMs), embedded system storage element (to be deployed into very harsh environments where mechanical hard disk drives would fail), or in a thin client due to its small size and power requirements. The Supermicro SuperDOM is available in 128GB, 64GB, 32GB, and 16GB capacities and supports all Supermicro SuperServer® products and solutions. Element for the design of digital devices and computer accessories. However, it is still backward compatible with server boards requiring this 5V power cable. Due to its optimized design the Supermicro SuperDOM does not require a 5V power cable as do other SATA DOM products on the market, thus improving performance and reliability. Data runs at 150MBps 1.5GHz using 8B/10B encoding and 250mV signal swings, with a maximum bus length of 1 meter. SATA uses a 4 conductor cable with two differential pairs Tx/Rx, plus an additional 3 grounds pins and a separate power connector. The Supermicro SuperDOM operates up to 2x faster than other SATA DOM products in the industry. The Serial ATA interface SATA is the serial version of the IDE ATA spec. Supermicro SATA DOMs are extremely reliable without any moving parts like standard HDDs and are smaller in size and lighter in weight with greatly improved performance, latency and power consumption (~ 1W-2W per SATA DOM vs.

The Supermicro SATA DOM (Disk on Module), the SuperDOM, is a small SATA3 (6Gb/s) flash memory module designed to be conveniently inserted into a serverboard SATA connector to provide high performance solid state storage capacity that simulates a hard disk drive (HDD).
