Micron Announces Crucial P3 And P3 Plus NVMe SSDs
Micron Technology, Inc., today announced the upcoming availability of two new consumer storage products, the Crucial P3 Plus Gen4 NVMe and Crucial P3 NVMe solid state drives (SSDs), as an expansion of its award-winning Crucial NVMe SSD product portfolio. The all new Crucial P3 Plus SSD product line will deliver attractive price-performance metrics with sequential read/write speeds up to 5000/4200MB/s, while next-generation Crucial P3 SSDs will provide read/write speeds up to 3500/3000MB/s. Both drives will be available in capacities up to 4TB, making them the ideal scalable storage solutions that professionals, creatives, gamers and other high-performance users need.
“For users that have been waiting to upgrade their PCs to Gen4 SSDs, the wait is over. With the forthcoming availability of the new Crucial P3 Plus SSD, anyone seeking high-performance SSDs can upgrade to NVMe Gen4 storage and affordably futureproof their PC,” said Teresa Kelley, vice president and general manager of Micron’s Commercial Products Group. “Both the Crucial P3 Plus and P3 SSD products will strengthen our overall SSD portfolio and NVMe product category by offering competitive choices for high-performance storage that enables users to get more done in less time.”
The DDR5 module starts its speed at 4800 MT/s, a 50% increase compared to its predecessor, while the DDR4 is at 3200 MT/s. Its strengths lie not only in its high bandwidth, but low power consumption, because the operating voltage has dropped from 1.2V to 1.1V, which effectively enhances the overall power efficiency. The DDR5 is also equipped with the on-module Power Management IC, which allows for better control of system power and a higher signal integrity. Meanwhile, the on-die ECC mechanism pushes the system reliability to a new level for computing-intensive applications.
TerraMaster, a professional brand that specializes in providing innovative storage products for home, businesses and enterprises, introduces the D8-332 8-bay professional-grade RAID storage offering up to 160TB of storage and impressive speeds of up to 1600MB/s. With Thunderbolt 3, the D8-332 can be connected with other Thunderbolt 3 devices or up to five other D8-332s making storage expansion easy. The D8-332 also supports a wide selection of RAID modes offering flexible storage configurations depending on your needs.
