In 2004, the Reduced-Size MultiMediaCard (RS-MMC) was introduced as a smaller form factor of the MMC, with about half the size: 24 mm × 18 mm × 1.4 mm.The RS-MMC uses a simple mechanical adapter to elongate the card so it can be used in any MMC (or SD) slot.
Note that a memory card's dimensions are determined while holding the card with contact pins upwards. The length of cards is often greater than their width.
Unlike eMMC, Universal Flash Storage is based on the SCSI architectural model and supports SCSI Tagged Command Queuing. [9] The standard is developed by, and available from, the JEDEC Solid State Technology Association.
Portable solid-state drive (SSD) is a common solid-state storage device that uses semiconductor cells on integrated circuit assemblies for mass storage.
The Q1-SSD and Q30-SSD launch was delayed and finally was shipped in late August 2006. [ 193 ] The first flash-memory based PC to become available was the Sony Vaio UX90, announced for pre-order on 27 June 2006 and began to be shipped in Japan on 3 July 2006 with a 16 GB flash memory hard drive.

Top and bottom sides of a 100GB Intel DC S3700 SATA SSD and a 120GB Intel 535 mSATA SSD. Flash memory, a key component in modern SSDs, was invented in 1980 by Fujio Masuoka at Toshiba. [ 132 ] [ 133 ] Flash-based SSDs were patented in 1989 by the founders of SanDisk , [ 134 ] which released its first product in 1991: a 20 MB SSD for IBM laptops ...
Historically, most SSDs used buses such as SATA, SAS, or Fibre Channel for interfacing with the rest of a computer system. Since SSDs became available in mass markets, SATA has become the most typical way for connecting SSDs in personal computers; however, SATA was designed primarily for interfacing with mechanical hard disk drives (HDDs), and it became increasingly inadequate for SSDs, which ...
Some operating systems, such as Linux may provide a generic driver for accessing an RPMB device attached to an eMMC. [4] However, in other cases the access to RPMB is controlled through a proprietary driver; this may require use of a Trusted Application instead of a normal application to access the data. [3]
