KIOXIA America, Inc. has expanded its high-capacity KIOXIA LC9 Series enterprise SSD lineup by introducing the industry’s first 245.76 terabyte (TB) NVMe™ SSD in a 2.5-inch and Enterprise and Datacenter Standard Form Factor (EDSFF) E3.L form factor. This new capacity and form factor option complements the previously announced 122.88 TB (2.5-inch) model and is purpose-built for the performance and efficiency demands of generative AI environments.

Generative AI places unique demands on storage, including the need to store vast datasets for training large language models (LLMs), and to create embeddings and vector databases that support inference through retrieval augmented generation (RAG). These workloads require storage solutions with large capacity, high speed, and exceptional power efficiency.

TerraMaster, a leading storage solutions brand, introduces the D1 SSD Plus, a USB4 SSD enclosure designed for creative professionals, gamers, and mobile office users.

Equipped with a USB4 40Gb/s interface, the D1 SSD Plus, when paired with high-performance NVMe SSDs (e.g., Samsung 990 PRO or WD Black SN850X), achieves read speeds up to 3853MB/s and write speeds up to 3707MB/s. It transfers a 3GB video in approximately 1 second, effortlessly handling 4K/8K video editing, large-scale data transfers, and application execution.

Patriot Memory announced the launch of its latest flagship PCIe Gen5 SSD – the PV593 PCIe Gen5 x4 M.2 2280 SSD, delivering industry-leading speeds of up to 14,000MB/s read and 13,000MB/s write. Powered by the advanced SMI SM2508 controller and built on TSMC’s 6nm process, the PV593 redefines next-gen storage for demanding workloads such as AI training, 4K/8K video editing, AAA gaming, and high-throughput multitasking.

With performance nearly twice as fast as PCIe Gen4 SSDs—and over four times faster than Gen3—the PV593 is engineered for users who demand speed without compromise. It features DRAM cache and dynamic SLC caching technology to reduce latency, accelerate system startup, and improve application launch times. With 4K random read/write speeds reaching up to 2000K/1650K IOPS, users can experience lightning-fast responsiveness across all tasks.

Patriot Memory officially unveils the MD330 Storage Hub — an industry-first, patent-pending design that combines 4K HDMI display output, USB-C PD 3.0 fast charging, and built-in storage in a single compact device. Engineered as a triple threat hub to support Projection × Storage × Power, the MD330 delivers up to 100W of USB-C Power Delivery, allowing users to charge devices uninterrupted even during presentations or media streaming. With up to 1TB of onboard storage, it meets the needs of fast data backup and media access on the go—creating a true mobile workstation experience in one device.

Engineered for modern multitasking, the MD330 Storage Hub supports up to 100W of USB-C Power Delivery, keeping laptops, tablets, and smartphones fully charged—even during intensive tasks like streaming, gaming, or remote presentations. Its single USB-C connection handles video output and charging simultaneously, and it’s widely compatible with laptops, tablets, smartphones, even supporting leading handheld gaming consoles like the Switch 1 and Steam Deck.

Lexar, a leading global brand of flash memory solutions, is thrilled to debut its new next-gen solid-state drive—the NM990 M.2 2280 PCIe 5.0 NVMe SSD, engineered for High-end gamers, professional creators and AI developers.

Leveraging next-generation PCIe 5.0 technology, the NM990 PCIe 5.0 SSD delivers speeds up to 14,000MB/s read and 11,000MB/s write, almost two times faster than typical Gen 4 SSDs. It provides superior performance for serious gamers and professional rendering.

The NM990 PCIe 5.0 SSD includes Thermal Defender Technology, and is integrated 8-channel controller and graphite heat dissipation decals to deliver up to 23% better power consumption management, ensuring smoother and more efficient performance.

Seagate Technology Holdings plc, a global leader in mass-capacity data storage, today announced the global channel availability of up to 30TB Exos M and IronWolf Pro hard drives. Built on Seagate’s Mozaic3+™ platform and powered by heat-assisted magnetic recording (HAMR) technology, these drives are engineered to meet increasing demand for scalable, high-performance storage driven by the rise of AI deployments that are supplementing traditional enterprise infrastructure development. With over one million Mozaic hard drives now shipped, Seagate has reached more than just a milestone—it has marked a defining moment that underscores the strength and maturity of its breakthrough storage technology.

“Today, approximately 90% of the world’s data is stored in just 10 countries. However, data gravity is increasingly pulling networks to the edge as nearly 150 countries adopt data sovereignty requirements, and AI workloads continue to expand. Datacenters—on-prem, private, and sovereign—are leveraging AI to unlock the value of their proprietary data,” said Melyssa Banda, SVP of Edge Storage and Services, Seagate. “Our 30TB drives are designed to support these rapidly growing trends, delivering the capacity, efficiency, and resilience needed to power the AI workloads.”

Exascend, a global leader in advanced storage and memory solutions, today expanded its power-efficient PE4 enterprise SSD line with two new 7 mm U.2 models: 23.04TB and 30.72TB. Delivering up to 4.5TB of storage per millimeter of thickness, these drives delivers best-in-class capacity currently available in a 7 mm form factor while cutting typical power consumption in half. The new PE4 models enable system integrators to maximize capacity in edge servers, rugged industrial computers, on-premises AI nodes, and space-constrained data centers where every watt and every millimeter count.

Unrivaled Density and Power Efficiency
The PE4 30.72TB doubles the density of competing 7mm U.2 SSD and enables up to 737TB of flash in a single 1U server, cutting rack space requirements by 50 percent compared to 15mm drives and delivers a two-fold jump in TB-per-U efficiency.
