Galax has introduced a brand new PCIe 5.0 SSD, the HOF Extreme 50S. Yes, it seems near the Extreme 50, however the latter pushes information charges just a little additional. We’re now speaking about 12.4 GB/s learn speeds, versus 10 GB/s for the non-S.
HOF Extreme 50S: Galax goes even additional!
With this new model, the model’s design stays largely unchanged, with a predominantly white casing with gray and black accents. This mannequin options an lively heatsink, with a tiny fan positioned on prime. Its function is to chill the unit to stop thermal throttling.
Otherwise, internally, we now have the identical Phison PS5026-E26 reminiscence controller because the non-S, in addition to the identical sort of NAND reminiscence. We’re subsequently entitled to 232-layer reminiscence coupled with a DRAM cache in LPDDR4/DDR4.
However, every thing has been boosted to supply increased information charges. At most, this 50S model is able to studying at 12.4 GB/s and writing at 11.8 GB/s. To provide you with an thought, the Extreme 50’s sequential information charges are 10 GB/s learn and 9.5 GB/s write. As for random efficiency, it reaches 1500,000 IOPS in learn/write mode.
For the second, we don’t know of the promoting worth, we solely know that it’ll arrive quickly.
