- Kioxia launches 122.88 to SSD with PCIe Gen5 and Double Port Support
- The SSD NVME of the LC9 series is designed for AI workloads and hyperscal storage
- The new reader is available in a 2.5 -inch compact factor
After almost seven years at the top, the 2.5 -inch SSD ESADRIVE of 10 TB of Nimbus Data was dethroned by Kioxia, which unveiled a new model of 122.88 TB which not only offers a higher storage capacity but also supports PCIe Gen5, a first for this category.
Several companies have previously announced class 120 to class SSDs, notably Soligm, but the Kioxia SSD NVME LC9 is distinguished by torque its ultra-elevated capacity with a compact 2.5-inch factor and a new generation interface with a double port capacity for fault tolerance or connectivity to several calculation systems.
“AI working expenses stretch data storage capacities, requiring larger capacities and faster access to detailed data sets found in today’s data lakes, and Kioxia is ready to offer the necessary advanced technologies, including 2 TB QLC BICS Generation 8 of Flash 3D memory, CBA and the AISD technology manager, Axel Störmann, Axel Störmann, VPE & Chief Kioxia Europe GmbH.
Support the needs of AI system developers
The SSD 122.88 TB is aimed at hyperscal storage systems, AI workloads and other high -intensity applications that are based on capacity and speed. There is not yet a word on availability or prices, but the company plans to present the new reader to “various conferences to come”.
“This new LC9 NVME SSD series is an instrumental expansion of the Kioxie product which will support the needs of AI systems developers for high -capacity storage, high performance and energy efficiency for applications such as the formation of the AI model, inference and generation with the increase on a larger scale,” said Störmann.
Report on the new SSD, Serve Note: “This is a hot segment on the market, and it’s great to see the Kioxia join. As the IA clusters become larger, the shared storage level is generally measured as an exubyte. of flash in these systems.
