Looking for a very high capacity SSD and PCIE 5.0 interface? Well you are lucky, because the Samsung 4TB of the powerful SSD has introduced the M.22280 Factor Form.
The 4TB model is priced at $ 2 and if you want a Heat Sink model, you will have to pay about $ 5. But know that Samsung’s SSD heaters are among the best. Even with Heathink, the drive is only 1.5 mm (1.5 inches), which is very narrow for SSDs.
The sequential reading speed of this SSD is up to 1.5 MB / s and the sequential writing speed is up to 1.2 MB / s, just like the 2TB model. It should be noted that this model operates twice as fast as the 4 Pro Series.
Random reading and writing performance also looks impressive and is 1.2 k and 1.2 k iOPS, respectively. According to the released information, this drive is ready for the heaviest, from artificial intelligence processing to 4K/8K video rendering and gaming (this SSD is compatible with the PlayStation 4 console in addition to laptops and desktops).
Samsung’s new 5 -nanometer controller in the heart of the drive has increased energy efficiency by up to 5 % than the SSD Model 2 Pro, which means less heat production. However, if you are planning to use this drive up to its power, I recommend spending that extra $ 2 to buy a heathin model. Just remember, to achieve the best possible performance, you need to have a system that supports PCIE 5.0.
The durability of this drive has also increased dramatically and has reached 1.2 terabytes written (TBW), twice the 2TB model. The average pre -breakdown time (MTBF) is also announced at 1.5 million hours, which is ordinary for M.2 SSDs. As we said, the 5TB SSDs are scarce and for $ 1.5, this product is one of the most expensive on the market.
If you are looking for a more affordable option, go for SSDs of WD, Lexar or Sabrent brands, because they are PCIE 4.0 and are about half, but their price is slightly lower.
