Samsung manufactures SSD SM951-NV to improve speed and autonomy of the PC

Samsung manufactures SSD SM951-NV to improve speed and autonomy of the PC


Samsung has started mass production of its new memory cards SSD NVMe PCIe. This is the first units on the market that come with M.2 format and threatening to revolutionize the market in terms of speed and power consumption. And the new SM951-NV model is capable of sequential read speeds up to 2,260 MB / s and sequential write speeds up to 1,600 MB / s. That is, four times the read speed of an SSD based on SATA and three times your typing speed. A major breakthrough that want to market both in professional settings on workstations and powerful PC and high-end ultrabooks. And all with capacities up to 512 GB. At the moment we have no official date for its release or their prices. For now, you have all the data has revealed the Korean company.


 The storage market advances and Samsung has become one of the pioneers in deploying new technologies to improve the performance of SSDs. The company has begun commercial production of its new NVMe PCIe SSD card in M.2 format. The premise is clear. Improve the speed and performance of these memories while energy consumption is reduced and a more compact size is achieved. The model Samsung SM951-NV achieved a truly remarkable sequential read speeds up to 2,600 MB / s and sequential write speeds up to 1,600 MB / s. These figures are far above what we usually see on a typical disk-based SSD SATA, with speeds of 540 MB / s read and 500MB / s write.

 To achieve these speeds, the memory unit of Samsung uses four lanes (PCIe Gen 3.0 x 4) simultaneous data flow to 8 Gbps. In total, 32 transfer rates are achieved Gbps. The random read speed is placed in the 300,000 IOPS, which trebles what you get with a SATA-based SSD memory. And all this with M.2 format, allowing you to enjoy a remarkable fineness below 4 mm and a weight of just 7 grams (ten times less than a SSD SATA). Certainly a competitive advantage in introducing these new units in teams like the ultrabooks, looking increasingly thin and light designs.


 In fact, one of the important advantages of the new disks Samsung SM951-NV is its energy efficiency with a low power mode that may improve runtimes of notebooks. These new models will be targeted at both the consumer world (in high-end equipment) and in the professional world in servers and workstations. Samsung will sell the Samsung SM951-NV in capacities of 128 GB, 256 GB and 512 GB. Currently there is no specific date for release or price, but is not expected to take a long time to reach the market.
