Toshiba Electronics Europe (TEE) introduces the XG5 series, a new line of NVM Express® (NVMe™) SSDs that integrates 64 layers of 3D flash memory, offering up to 1 TB of capacity in a compact M.2 form factor. Starting now, OEM customers will have access to limited quantities of certified samples, with ordering gradually increasing in the second half of 2017.

As the third generation of Toshiba's popular XG series, the XG5 SSDs feature the latest 3-bit-per-cell (triple-level cell) BiCS FLASH™ FLASH™ and utilize PCI EXPRESS® (PCIe®) Gen3 x4 channels and NVMe Revision 1.2.1 to deliver extremely high performance of up to 3000 MB/s sequential read and 2100 MB/s sequential write. Compared to 6Gbit/s SATA storage, the XG5 series is up to 5.4 times faster in sequential read performance and up to 3.8 times faster in sequential write performance with a maximum interface bandwidth of 32 GT/s. In addition, the XG5 feature set also offers an SLC cache with excellent performance to accelerate burst-type workloads, such as those commonly experienced on Windows® PCs, as well as reduced idle power consumption of more than 50% to less than 3mW, making these SSDs an excellent solution for high-performance mobile computing.

The XG5 Series SSDs will be available in three capacities: 256GB, 512GB, and 1024GB, all in a single M.2 2280 form factor. Self-encrypting drive (SED) models compliant with TCG Opal Version 2.01 will also be offered, making the XG5 Series well-suited for a wide range of applications, including performance-driven ultra-mobile PCs and security-intensive enterprise applications.
