In this new series, KIOXIA has prioritized optimized energy consumption and refrigerator performance. The EXCERIA PLUS G4 series improves energy efficiency by approximately 80% at maximum sequential read speed compared to the previous generation.

By enabling more effective heat dissipation, EXCERIA PLUS G4 SSDs feature innovative product labels that improve thermal dissipation in systems that require greater cooling and stability during intense gaming or rendering sessions.

The new EXCERIA PLUS G4 SSD series features KIOXIA's BiCS FLASH™ 3D flash memory and will be available in a single-sided M.2 2280 form factor with 1TB or 2TB capacity options. For environmentally conscious users, the EXCERIA PLUS G4 SSDs will utilize KIOXIA's new paper-based packaging, which will reduce plastic waste.

“We are thrilled to introduce our first consumer PCIe 5.0 SSD, designed to elevate the gaming and content creation experience for our end customers to unprecedented levels,” said Paul Rowan, Vice President and Head of Marketing for the Memory and SSD business units at KIOXIA Europe GmbH. “Thanks to KIOXIA’s latest BiCS FLASH 3D flash memory technology and a controller optimized for the highest energy efficiency, this new SSD enables the heavy workloads of PCIe 5.0 while maintaining power consumption similar to PCIe 4.0. Whether it’s to increase battery life or support overall thermal performance in the host system, the new EXCERIA PLUS G4 series is designed to balance higher data transfer rates with power consumption.”
