After the announcement of the PCIe Gen 5 standard, the work of the manufacturers gained momentum. As the first PCIe Gen 5 based SSD drives begin to emerge, there is fierce competition on the performance side.
What does the Corsair MP700 SSD offer?
The MP700 SSD drive introduced by Corsair was developed on the basis of PCIe Gen 5. Using the M.2 standard and having x4 NVMe 2.0 interface, the drive can reach 10000MB/s in read speeds and 9500MB/s in write speeds. It is possible to achieve 60 percent increases compared to the company’s MP600 PRO XT driver.
PCIe 7.0 introduced: Here are the specs
Taking advantage of Phison’s best Gen 5 controller, the driver probably uses the PS5026-E26. This controller is capable of controlling speeds up to 12GB/s. The drive is also fully compatible with Microsoft DirectStorage API and AMD Smart Access Storage (SAS) technologies.
With the launch of AMD’s Ryzen 7000, new generation SSD models are also expected to take the stage. On PCIe Gen 5 SSD, 14000MB/s speeds have already been reached. We will probably see different performances for different segments.
