Silicon Image Announces Sil5733 Storage Processor
 

Silicon Image today announced the latest addition to its second-generation SteelVine product family: the Sil5733. The new Sil5733 combines the features of the previously released second-generation SteelVine family and adds content security by automatic drive locking. It is targeted towards the consumer electronics and motherboard manufacturers for internal integration.

The content security by automatic drive locking feature makes this storage controller ideal for consumer electronics device manufacturers who tend to lock the hard disk to the specific device. PC motherboard manufacturers may find use of the Sil5733 as a secure e.SATA controller.
