Mushkin announces 2TB M.2 NVMe and SATA SSDs with 3DNAND
When it comes to speed the Mushkin Helix will be the fastest in the company’s new SSD lineup, using the M.2 interface and the NVMe protocol to offer sequential read speeds of up to 2.5GB/s and sequential write speeds of up to 1.1GB/s. which is very fast when compared to any modern SATA SSD.
This SSD will use a Silicon Motion SM2260 controller and offer capacities between 250GB and 2TB, allowing this SSD to compete with even Samsung’s 960 Pro series when it comes to storage capacity in the M.2 form factor. Such a shame that this SSD uses a green PCB.
In their new SATA range, Mushkin will be moving to 3D NAND and a Silicon motion 2258 controller, though at this time Mushkin has not revealed their NAND manufacturer.
The Mushkin Reactor 3D series will use 3D MLC NAND and the Triactor 3D will use 3D TLC NAND. At this time Mushkin has not announced the pricing or the availability of these new 3D NAND based SSDs.
