ADATA reveals a pair of mainstream M.2 NVMe SSDs

 
ADATA has revealed their new XPG SX6000 and SX7000 mainstream M.2 NVMe SSDs, which are designed to offer a competitive price/performance ratios while offering performance that is well in excess of what is offered by modern SATA storage solutions. 

  

The budget oriented XPG SX6000 is based on Realtek’s RTS5760 controller, which does not use a DRAM caching solution and interfaces directly with the drive’s 3D TLC NAND to offer sequential read and write speeds of 850MB/s. This may no be the fastest NVMe SSD on the market, but it is a lot faster than all existing SATA SSDs, which typically cap out at sequential read speeds of 550 MB/s.

Moving onto the XPG 7000, ADATA has decided to use Silicon Motion’s SMI2262G controller, which uses a DRAM cache in conjunction with 3D TLC NAND. The SX 7000 will offer similar (slightly higher) sequential write speeds than the SX 6000 but will offer over double the sequential write performance. 

Both of these new drives will come with 128GB, 256GB, 512GB and 1TB versions, though at this time ADATA has not officially revealed the pricing of either drive.
