The EF52R is the medium size drive of DEC’s first generation of solid state disks packaged in a full-height, 5 1⁄4-inch form factor. The EF52R ISE provides non-volatility of data by a data retention system including:
- Power sensing logic
- An internal winchester magnetic disk drive
- A battery to power the EF52R while dumping data to the winchester disk
Apart from the DSSI interface, the EF52R disk drive is identical to the EZ52R Solid State Disk Drive.
