Empowering IoT and Industrial Innovation

The convergence of ubiquitous connectivity and compute capability is driving an exponential growth in
connected devices and connected sensors, generating incredible volumes of data and enabling vast new types
of transformative applications and business models. Adding to this complicated but exciting picture are the
tremendous amounts of data rapidly flowing from ar tificial intelligence and machine learning. In addition to
capturing this data locally as primary or backup storage, edge storage devices, such as Western Digital embedded
storage, Solid State Drives (SSDs) and industrial cards, will help maximize network efficiency and enable systems to
analyze the data and act on the results in real-time.

Meeting Industrial and IoT Demanding Environmental, Endurance
and Reliability Requirements

Leveraging 30 years of expertise in NAND flash memory and storage systems, Western Digital Industrial­Grade products deliver edge storage solutions for industrial and IoT applications requiring durability, high
reliability, and high-intensity recording across a wide range of operational requirements. Designed and tested
to withstand demanding environmental conditions, such as extreme temperatures, humidity and vibration, our
portfolio features advanced memory management firmware, which includes power immunity, auto/manual
read refresh, error-correcting code (ECC), and wear leveling. Data (write)-intensive applications can rely on
Western Digital Industrial products to capture every critical moment, log each event, and ensure quality of
service to end-users. These high-endurance solutions offer extended product life cycles which can reduce
total cost of ownership (TCO) by eliminating costly redesigns and minimizing unnecessary maintenance calls.
