TeamGroup is launching its quickest strong state drive (SSD) but and, in accordance with the rated specs, it’s going to come near saturating the PCI Specific 5.0 x4 bus. To be extra particular, TeamGroup’s newly unveiled T-Pressure GE Professional SSD that includes 2,400MT/s NAND flash reminiscence is rated to ship sequential learn speeds of as much as 14,000MB/s (14GB/s).
Technically, the PCIe 5.0 x4 bus that the most recent NVMe SSDs faucet into gives as much as 15.75GB/s of bandwidth. Overhead and different elements stop drives from hitting the theoretical most throughput, however as we noticed with the latter crop of blazing-fast PCIe 4.0 SSDs, it is solely a matter of time earlier than drive makers open up the floodgates and are available awfully shut.
TeamGroup’s tapping InnoGrit’s newest 12-nanometer IG5666 controller to take speeds to a different stage. Sadly, TeamGroup is just not but sharing the complete spec sheet, so we do not know the place sequential writes land, or the extra vital 4K random learn and write metrics, that are extra significant for normal function computing and gaming.
TeamGroup’s sole render of its new SSD solely exhibits a graphene cooler, so it is unclear if a chunkier heatsink will come bundled. Managing warmth is extra vital than ever in PCIe 5.0 territory, as these breakneck speeds can rapidly throttle when temps get too excessive. TeamGroup says its newest SSD employs inner sensors to regulate efficiency as wanted, to forestall overheating.
We’ll know extra quickly—the T-Pressure GE Professional will make its full debut at CES subsequent week and be obtainable to preorder at Amazon and Newegg in February.
