MSI To release two super fast NVMe SSDs - Gen 4x4 and Read and Writes up-to 7000 MB/s

by Hilbert Hagedoorn on: 01/13/2021 08:24 PM | source: | 11 comment(s)

MSI is keen to redefine the GAMING SSD and lands in the NAND arena with a bang. The two upcoming SSDs have been designed to deliver storage up to 4TB, read speeds up to 7000 MB/s, and write speeds up to 6900 MB/s.

Little info has been shared otherwise. The NVMe M2 SSD units are being fitted with a cooler. We expect something Phison based alright. The slide you see mentioned up-to 7000 MB/sec reads and a staggering 6900 MB/sec writes. NAND used is TLC (3-bits per cell), and MSI will offer up to 4 TB versions. More info to follow as soon as we receive it.

While it's great with so fast writes it only really makes sense for a user with another fast SSD, copying from one to the other.

Not sure why. Read speeds, which is what most people are about, are the same. Unless you do a lot of copying from one m.2 drive to another, most people don't care that much about the extra write speed.

That said, technology gains are always welcome and will push others to go even faster.

Its great SSD but limited, no 2TB and no 4TB
I rather have more space then faster, anyway what matter is 4K reads and writes, sequential speed is irrelevant

I have x2 2TB Corsair MP510, so 4TB in RAID 0
and x3 4TB SATA Samsungs, still not decided to raid 0 or not to raid 0, dunno how x570 is stable with raid
