Toshiba America Electronic Components, Inc., a committed technology leader, today announces the Toshiba OCZ RD400 Non-Volatile Memory Express® (NVMe) solid state drive (SSD) series. Designed for cutting-edge notebooks and PCs, the Peripheral Component Interconnect Express® (PCIe®) RD400 series provides improved storage bandwidth and enhanced latency resulting in a fast and responsive computing experience.

Toshiba OCZ RD400 NVMe SSD

Unlike Serial Advanced Technology Attachment (SATA) based SSDs utilizing the legacy Advanced Host Controller Interface (AHCI) protocol, NVMe is the first storage protocol designed with SSDs in mind making the RD400 series one of Toshiba’s fastest consumer SSDs to date. Additionally, the RD400’s PCIe Gen3 x4 lane interface shatters the traditional SATA bottleneck by delivering over four times the performance of SATA SSDs. The RD400 series features sequential read/write speeds of up to 2,600 MB/s and 1,600 MB/s and random read/write performance of up to 210,000 and 140,000 4KiB input/output operations per second (IOPS).

TDK Corporation successively will launch three SATA modules in May 2016: M.2.2242 (SNS1B series), mSATA (SMS1B series), and HalfSlim (SHS1B series). These modules are equipped with the serial ATA 6Gb/s-compatible, NAND-type, flash memory-controlled IC GBDriver GS1.

In recent years, there has been a growing need for small and large-capacity SATA SSD modules in industrial applications. SATA SSD modules have become more diversified to accommodate various sizes and device uses.

This need has led to the simultaneous release of three series of SATA 6Gb/s module-shaped SSD modules equipped with TDK’s own GBDriver GS1. The modules deliver the reliability needed for industrial applications, and boast higher reading and writing speeds than our conventional products.
