Introduction
Product Overview
The CF24118HR/CF34118HR CFast drive carrier modules provide a low cost removable drive solution for PC/104 systems. They utilize the
SATA links on the PCIe/104 bus connector on select RTD PCIe/104 cpuModules. The onboard drive utilizes the first SATA link on the
connector, while the other SATA link is lane-shifted up the stack to permit stacking multiple SATA drive carrier modules within one system.
Board Features
