ADATA XPG Sage PCIe 4.0 SSD

ADATA XPG Sage PCIe 4.0 SSD reaches read speed of 7 GB/s

During the CES 2020, ADATA introduced the XPG Sage PCIe 4.0 SSD, which uses the Innogrit Rainier controller (IG5236). The above controller can support up to 16TB of storage and use an eight-channel interface.

Although Innogrit is an unfamiliar name (compared to Phison’s most commonly used controllers), the performance it offers is at a high level. The ADATA CrystalDisk benchmark shows sequential read and write performance of 7.2 GB/sec and close to 5.4 GB/sec for XPS Sage.

According to the Tom’s Hardware site, which was able to test the XPG Sage, ADATA also highlights random IOPS speeds of 1,000,000 and 800,000 for data read and write, respectively. Additionally, it is suggested that sequential speeds of 6 GB/sec can be easily achieved with some firmware changes before SSDs go into mass production.

Other features of the SSD ADATA XPG Sage PCIe 4.0 SSD include 4GB of DRAM cache, integrated heat conductors, and SSDs up to 4TB capacity. It is expected that the XPG Sage will not be released before June.

980 PRO Samsung SSD

Samsung’s SSD 980 PRO PCIe Gen4 offers 6500 MB/s read speed

Ryzen 4000 CPU owners, Samsung has heard your cries.

Samsung has officially unveiled its first consumer SSD PCIe Gen4, which introduces the M.2 NVMe model, which the South Korean company claims it will defeat competition in many segments, reports Overclock3D.

[td_block_ad_box spot_id=”custom_ad_2″]

The new 980 Pro PCIe Gen4 SSD promises sequential data read speed of 6.5 GB/s and sequential write speed of 5 GB/s. Reaching the aforementioned speeds will require a PCIe 4.0 compatible system, which makes the 980 PRO’s performance available only on AMD Ryzen 3rd Generation systems at the moment.

To achieve these speeds, Samsung has developed a new SSD PCIe 4.0 compatible controller, updated 3D V-NAND to enable improved efficiency, better speeds and a V-NAND size up to 128 layers.

Samsung is planning to launch the 980 Pro PCIe Gen4 SSDs on January 21 in the US and South Korea, respectively globally in February. SSDs will be available in capacities of 250 GB, 500 GB and 1TB, while prices are not yet known.

Lexar PCIe 4.0 SSD

Lexar announced a SSD PCIe 4.0 with 7GB/s read speeds

At a special event in China, Lexar has introduced the latest innovations in the storage segment, including the company’s PCIe 4.0 SSDs, reports Overclock3D.

[td_block_ad_box spot_id=”custom_ad_2″]

In today’s consumer PCIe 4.0 SSDs market, Phison dominates with its PS5016-E16 controller, which is used by Corsair, Galax, Adata, Seagate, Gigabyte and virtually all other consumer PCIe 4.0 SSDs. Now Lexar is gearing up for something new – a faster PCIe 4.0 SSD that should provide data read speeds of 7GB/s.

Today’s PCIe 4.0 SSDs typically offer speeds of around 5GB/s, while the Lexar prototype has a read speed of 6224 MB/s. PCIe 4.0 SSDs will be even faster next year.

Lexar has not revealed who is the manufacturer of the controllers for this SSD, but noted that it expects the company’s PCIe 4.0 SSDs, which are expected during the second quarter of 2020, to offer 7GB/s data read speeds.

The sequential speeds of this SSD are often 2 times faster than many premium segment PCIe 3.0 SSDs, which is certainly great news for those planning and wanting a fast SSD.

In 2020, the new PCIe 4.0 SSD controllers are expected by Phison, Silicon Motion and other manufacturers.

WD Blue SN550 M.2 NVMe SSD

New WD Blue SN550 M.2 NVMe SSDs arrives

Western Digital has introduced the WD Blue SN550 line of M.2 NVMe SSDs. It’s about the offspring of the WD Blue SN500 line, as they come with new controllers that use PCI-Express 3.0 x4, reports TechPowerUp.

[td_block_ad_box spot_id=”custom_ad_2″]

The controller was created by Western Digital and SanDisk, and is based on the same architecture as the WD Black SN750, but without DRAM and has fewer flash channels. WD implements the 96-layer 3D TLC NAND flash and wants the SSD to compete with QLC NAND-based models such as the Crucial P1.

WD Blue SN550 M.2 NVMe SSDs sell for $55 for the 250GB model, $65 for the 500GB and $99 for the 1TB variant. All three models have increased PCIe bandwidth, with data read speeds up to 2400 MB/s. When it comes to recording speeds, they range up to 950 MB/s for the 250 GB model, up to 1750 MB/s for the 500 GB model, and 1950 MB/s for the 1TB variant.

All SSDs have a five-year warranty and TBW durability of 150TB to 600TB depending on the model.

Intel 665p SSD

Intel brings the 665p SSD with the second-generation QLC NAND 96 layer

NAND technology is continuing to evolve, enabling improved performance, lower pricing and stronger market competition. QLC NAND is one of the latest NAND innovations, which increases the density of NAND space to enable more storage at a lower cost, reports Overclock3D.

[td_block_ad_box spot_id=”custom_ad_2″]

Intel 660p has quickly become one of the most popular QLC-based SSDs, and is now changing to the Intel 665p model. The newer model uses Intel’s second-generation QLC NAND, which features 96 layers instead of 64-layer NANDs used by the 660p SSD model.

Intel 665p uses the Silicon Motion controller SM2263 (same as the 660p model), so all performance improvements come from Intel’s NAND changes. The company will launch the aforementioned SSD with 1TB and 2TB capacity.

The new SSD enables significant performance improvements in the data recording and reading segment as well as up to 50% stability, and this is especially true for the 2TB model. Intel plans to launch the 665p SSD on the market in early 2020.

SSD drives are entering in the era of terabytes (TB) models

SSD drives are entering in the era of terabytes (TB) models

The ultimate protective wall of mechanical hard drives (HDD) before much faster and safer NAND flash technology is the high capacity and the lowest cost per GB of disc space. However, even this wall is slowly collapsing as the technology of flash memory production is advancing day by day.

[td_block_ad_box spot_id=”custom_ad_2″]

The moment when hard drives will be permanently placed on museum shelves is approaching, as the latest Hynix news confirms that this will happen much sooner than most of us expect, reports ITHome.

SK Hynix, one of the world’s leading memory manufacturers, has launched the first pre-production models of 128-layer 4D NAND memory based SSDs. The test products have been delivered to the major Hynix partners for the purpose of testing their performance characteristics, namely 1 TB flash drive, 2 TB SSD drive so-called client device, which we all use today on PC and SSD models designed for the business environment, with a capacity of up to 16 TB.

SK Hynix has begun mass production of 128-layer 1Tb TLC NAND chips this June. This month has delivered the first UFS 3.1 terabyte modules for the needs of mobile phone manufacturers based on 128-layer 4D NAND technology. As current models of 1 TB SSDs require the use of a large number of chips, with the new SK Hynix memory the number of chips needed has been halved. Also, the physical dimensions have been reduced because they are only 1mm thin and are therefore ideal for use on 5G ultra-thin smartphone models.

It is assumed that mobile phones with the next generation of flash memory will appear on the market in the second half of next year.

Huawei now also has an PCIe SSD and even up to 32TB

Huawei now also has an PCIe SSD and even up to 32TB

Huawei does not only produce mobile phones as most people would think since they mainly associate this company with mobile technologies and network infrastructure. This time, the SSD has an extremely large capacity of 32 TB, writes HKEPC.

[td_block_ad_box spot_id=”custom_ad_2″]

It is a fully functional prototype developed at the company headquarters in Shenzhen. According to the photo shown, it can be concluded that the disk belongs to the Huawei HSSD Series D5223PM6H00 mark – with a capacity of 32 TB and works to PCIe NVMe specifications.

In essence, this model is similar to other SSDs on the market, except that the device housing is slightly upgraded to increase the heat transfer surface that the device releases during operation. After all, all high-performance SSDs release excess heat during operation, including this from Huawei’s 32TB.

Given that Huawei has not yet officially introduced this SSD drive on its official website, we have no further information on the specifications of this interesting device, which offers additional storage capacity.
