SK Hynix officially announced the “industry’s highest performance” solid-state drive PCB01, which will be mass-produced and launched within this year

According to news from this site on June 28, SK Hynix announced today (June 28) that the company has developed the “industry’s highest performance” solid-state drive SSD product PCB01 for end-side AI PCs.

SK Hynix said: "The company is the first in the industry to apply 'PCIe 5.0 x 8 interface' technology to PCB01 to significantly improve performance such as data processing speed. Following ultra-high-performance DRAM such as HBM, it is also using NAND flash memory In terms of solutions, the company has successfully developed products of the highest standards to lead the memory market for AI. "

Note from this site: SK Hynix officially explained that the x8 interface is the data input between the NAND flash memory and the controller in the solid-state drive. /Number of output (I/O) interfaces. x4 interface products focus on the general PC market, while x8 interface products focus on the high-performance PC market.

SK Hynix is ​​verifying new products with global PC customers. It plans to start mass production within this year after the verification is completed, and launch products for large customers and ordinary consumers at the same time.

Among solid-state drive products for PCs, PCB01 has sequential read and write speeds of 14GB/s and 12GB/s respectively. Compared with the previous generation product, PCB01’s energy efficiency has been improved by more than 30%, which can improve the stability of large-scale AI calculations.

At the same time, SK hynix has applied SLC Caching technology to this product. This technology enables some NAND flash memory cells to operate in high-speed SLC mode.

Note from this website: NAND flash memory is divided into SLC (Single Level Cell, 1 bit), MLC (Multi Level Cell, 2 bits) and TLC ( Triple Level Cell, 3 digits) and other different specifications. As storage capacity increases, more data can be stored in the same area, but speed and stability will decrease accordingly.

In addition, PCB01 is also equipped with security functions to protect personal information and is configured with the security solution Trust (ROT) to prevent external attacks and data forgery and tampering, while protecting user passwords.

SK Hynix PCB01 will be available in three capacities: 512GB, 1TB, and 2TB. An Hyun, vice president of the SK Hynix NAND Flash Solutions Committee (N-S Committee), said: "This new product has significantly improved performance compared with the previous generation. Currently, several central processor companies targeting end-side AI PCs have proposed compatibility verification. Cooperation. The company plans to smoothly conduct customer verification and mass production of this product to consolidate its leading position in the AI-oriented memory market.”
