Virident drives ship with Virident’s vFAS management software, which efficiently manages the flash, workload and steady state performance. vFAS has also been updated to include a data sanitization feature that securely removes sensitive or classified data from FlashMAX drives. This feature makes FlashMAX compliant with NIST and DOD standards for securely erasing NAND flash media.
