Throughout our MSI sales space tour at CES 2024the corporate proven us their quickest PCIe 5.0 SSD. This SSD is their SPATIUM M580 PCIe 5.0 SSD, and it is going to be accessible with varied cooling options.
As we speak’s ultra-fast PCIe 5.0 SSDs can run scorching, and MSI are addressing this drawback with a variety of superior heatsink options. These embody FROZR+ and FROZR LIQUID cooling options. The latter of those coolers is an all-in-one liquid cooling answer. Sure, MSI have made a liquid cooler for an SSD!
Each of MSI’s new SPATIUM M580 PCIe 5.0 SSDs can ship customers sequential learn/write speeds of 14,000/12,000 MB/s. This means that MSI are utilizing Phison’s E26 “Max14um” SSD controller, although we had been unable to confirm this with MSI.
Beneath you may see the MSI SPATIUM M580 FROZR+. This SSD contains a heatsink with an MSI TORX 5.0 fan, a 6mm heatpipe, and a flattened backside floor to make sure optimum warmth switch. The highest of this cooling answer has an RGB illuminated aspect, and the unit’s fan is powered by a separate energy connector.
Subsequent up we’ve got the SPATIUM M580 FROZR LIQUID. This SSD cooler makes use of a compact liquid cooling radiator and a small blower fan to maintain MSI’s quickest SSD cool underneath load. Surprisingly, MSI makes use of the tagline “passive SSD thermal expertise”, even supposing this SSD cooler incorporates a fan and requires exterior energy.
Right now it’s unclear if the SPATIUM M580 FROZR Liquid will probably be coming to market. Regardless, it’s clear that MSI are taking SSD cooling severely.
With their SPATIUM M580 designs, MSI have made it clear that they need their quickest SSDs to be cool-running. It will stop their SSDs from throttling underneath load, which is nice information for any heavy storage customers. Whereas these options could seen overkill, it’s higher in your cooling options to be overspec’d than underspec’d.
You possibly can be part of the dialogue on MSI’s quickest PCIe 5.0 SSDs on the OC3D Boards.
