The new 4TB EXCERIA G3 is one of the world's first PCIe 5.0 SSDs to utilize quad-level cell (QLC) NAND flash memory based on the company's eighth-generation 3D BiCS FLASH™ flash memory technology, and is available immediately to consumers. This addition strengthens KIOXIA's PCIe 5.0 SSD lineup by introducing a high-capacity, cost-effective storage solution designed for everyday desktop and laptop users.
High-capacity PCIe 5.0 SSD for modern workloads
The PCIe 5.0 SSD with BiCS FLASH™ QLC combines next-generation performance with ample, powerful storage, aiming to make high-speed computing more accessible to a wider range of users. As the size of applications, game libraries, and creative files continues to grow, more and more users are looking for high-capacity NVMe SSDs that offer a balance between performance and price.
By leveraging BiCS FLASH™ QLC technology, KIOXIA enables higher storage density, helping to reduce the cost per terabyte while maintaining high performance. This makes the 4TB EXCERIA G3 SSD an attractive option for users comparing PCIe 5.0 SSDs based on price, capacity, and real-world performance.
Performance for gaming, content creation, and everyday use
The EXCERIA G3 4TB SSDs, designed for building and upgrading high-performance PCs, offer sequential read speeds of up to 10,000 MB/s and sequential write speeds of up to 9,600 MB/s. These speeds reduce game loading times, improve system responsiveness, and efficiently handle large files.
For gamers, this translates to faster access to vast game libraries and a smoother gaming experience. For content creators and professionals, the drive provides the bandwidth needed to edit high-resolution video, manage large resources, and perform multitasking workflows.
“With the new 4TB EXCERIA G3 SSD, KIOXIA is helping to make high-capacity PCIe 5.0 storage accessible to a wider range of PC users,” said Roland Knippertz, Senior Director of B2C Sales and Marketing at KIOXIA Europe GmbH. “Gamers, creators, and PC builders increasingly need more storage space, but they also demand performance, reliability, and good value. The EXCERIA G3 SSD series reflects KIOXIA’s commitment to making advanced flash memory technology more accessible for everyday computing and gaming.”.
Efficient and scalable storage with BiCS FLASH™ QLC
The use of BiCS FLASH™ QLC memory allows for greater capacity in a compact form factor. Since energy consumption, both individually and in general, is becoming an increasingly important factor when choosing PC components, the EXCERIA G3 series is designed to offer a balanced combination of performance, reliability, and efficiency for everyday use.
This makes the 4TB model ideal for users who build or upgrade systems with long-term value in mind.
Shipments of the 4TB EXCERIA G3 SSD model to distributors and retailers are scheduled to begin in June.
