Swissbit introduces the N7000, a highly versatile PCIe Gen4 SSD platform designed to balance performance, power efficiency, and cost across a wide spectrum of embedded applications. Offering more than 30 variants across a broad range of capacities, features, and temperature grades, the platform enables precise configuration for system‑level power and performance requirements. Powered by 3D TLC BiCS8 NAND and a power‑optimized industrial architecture, the series targets fanless, thermally constrained, and enclosed systems, while providing comprehensive data‑security capabilities for mission-critical applications. The platform is further expanded by high‑endurance pSLC variants and mission‑critical models with enhanced protection features. As Swissbit’s first PCIe solution built entirely on in‑house NAND packaging combined with Swissbit‑developed controller and firmware, the N7000 strengthens supply‑chain independence while delivering a reliable, energy‑efficient foundation for next‑generation boot and data storage drives with mixed workloads.

Following its premiere at Embedded World in Nuremberg, Swissbit now presents the full scope of its N7000 family. Designed for sustained predictable performance under tight thermal and power budgets, the platform supports industrial, commercial, networking, communication, and edge‑AI systems that rely on low power draw without sacrificing responsiveness. NVMe power‑loss notification supports mission‑critical usage, while the DRAM‑less controller design with Host Memory Buffer (HMB) ensures high responsiveness. Data protection is reinforced through AES‑256 encryption, TCG Opal 2.0, and crypto erase.

Kioxia Corporation today announced the KIOXIA XG10 Series solid state drives (SSDs), its latest high-performance client storage solution engineered for PC OEMs. Targeting the performance segment, the new KIOXIA XG10 Series leverages PCIe® 5.0 technology to significantly elevate speed and responsiveness across data-intensive client applications.

Designed as the successor to the KIOXIA XG8 Series, the KIOXIA XG10 Series adopts PCIe® 5.0 interface, enabling improvements in both sequential and random performance. Compared to the previous generation, the new drives achieve up to 2x sequential read, more than 2x sequential write, and increases of approximately 122 % in random read and 158 % in random write performance - supporting faster data access and improved system responsiveness.

Silicon Power (SP) announces the launch of the CreatePro Series, a comprehensive lineup of storage solutions engineered specifically for content creators. Designed to meet the evolving demands of today’s highly specialized and fast-paced creative landscape, CreatePro goes beyond traditional specifications of speed and capacity—delivering workflow-driven solutions that support creators at every stage of production.

CreatePro: Built Around How Creators Actually Work
As content creation continues to diversify—from livestreaming and social media to independent filmmaking and professional post-production—hardware demands have become increasingly complex. Silicon Power developed the CreatePro Series in response to these real-world challenges, focusing not just on performance, but on how creators actually work.

MSI today announces the launch of the DATAMAG LITE 40Gbps, a magnetic portable SSD that combines high-speed performance with everyday convenience. Available in 1TB, 2TB, and 4TB capacities, the DATAMAG LITE leverages the USB4 40Gbps interface to deliver transfer rates of up to 4000 MB/s read and 3600 MB/s write, making it an ideal portable storage solution for users who need fast and flexible storage on the go. Complementing the hardware, the dedicated DATAMAG App provides users with an intuitive way to check remaining capacity, back up and restore photos and videos, and keep important data safe and accessible at all times.

Magnetic Portable SSD
Built for users who need fast and convenient storage on the move, the DATAMAG LITE 40Gbps features a practical magnetic attachment design. Using the included metal ring, the drive can attach securely to compatible devices for easier access and greater portability. A hanging ring adds further convenience, keeping the SSD within reach wherever everyday life or work takes you.

Synology today announced the launch of the RS6426xs+, RS4826xs+, and RS3626xs. These next-generation models deliver the performance and reliability required for enterprise backup, data management, and virtualization storage at scale.

"As IT environments continue to grow more complex, organizations' needs for reliable and versatile infrastructure that can be purposed dynamically continue to grow." said Peggy Weng, Product Manager at Synology. "These systems are designed to help businesses facilitate team collaboration and multi-site synchronization, protect production environment, or deploy virtualization storage for high performance workloads."

Micron Technology, Inc., today announced it is now shipping the 245TB capacity Micron® 6600 ION SSD, the world’s highest capacity commercially available SSD. The drive marks a major step forward in rack-scale storage density for data centers and is designed to support AI, cloud, enterprise and hyperscale workloads, including next-generation AI data lakes and cloud-scale file and object storage. The 245TB Micron 6600 ION E3.L requires 82% fewer racks to achieve equivalent raw storage capacity compared to HDD-based deployments.1 Built with Micron® G9 QLC NAND that is at least one generation ahead of any competing QLC used in data center SSDs, the 245TB Micron 6600 ION redefines high-capacity data center storage.2 Customers can now store and process significantly more data in far less space, while reducing power and cooling demands without sacrificing the performance required for large-scale, data-intensive workloads.

“AI workloads are driving massive growth in shared data, continuing the shift of data center storage share from HDDs toward SSDs. With 245TB in a single SSD, the Micron 6600 ION makes solid state storage the clear choice for modern data centers," said Jeremy Werner, senior vice president and general manager of Micron's Core Data Center Business Unit. "This breakthrough capacity gives data center operators a critical new lever to improve rack-level total cost of ownership, especially as power availability becomes a defining constraint for AI infrastructure scale.”
