Is it possible and/or has anyone ever integrated flash for data storage on a PXI-8174. We are worried about excesive G-forces while running in a vehicle.

I need to be able to log data in a truck that I will be monitoring using CAN.

So....

the critical components are;

High G-Forces
CAN
LabVIEW
Data logging

ANy ideas or suggestions that will let tackle all of these would be welcome. Are any solid sate disks I can get into a PXI system?

Thanks in advance,

Ben

Ben,

We have had many customers upgrade to a flash drive for high vibration/shock/altitude environments. Here is a KnowledgeBase that discusses some of the options for solid-state drives:
