Toshiba Memory America, the US-based subsidiary of Toshiba Memory, has announced the XG6-P solid state drive (SSD) series that offers up to 2,048GB of capacity.

With over 30% higher sequential and random write speeds and over 15% higher random read speeds than its predecessor, the XG6-P series enables enhanced application performance and data access for high-end workstation PCs and gaming systems, as well as cost-optimized data center and composable infrastructures.

Leveraging Toshiba Memory's 96-layer 3D TLC (3-bit-per-cell) NAND memory chips, the new XG6-P SSD series features a PCIe Gen 3 x4 lane (rev. 3.1a) interface. The SSD delivers up to 3,180MB/s of sequential read and 2,920MB/s of sequential write, and up to 355,000 random read and 365,000 random write IOPS. XG6-P SSDs also operate at less than five watts.

"The XG6-P series bridges the gap between high-end client and entry-level data center requirements, including burgeoning composable storage architectures that enable high-performance, scale-out designs for artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning, edge computing and HPC," said Alvaro Toledo, VP of SSD marketing & product planning for Toshiba Memory America.

Comprehensive composable infrastructure platform provider Liqid will be among the first to integrate Toshiba Memory's new SSDs into its offerings, the storage device maker indicated. The XG6-P SSD is available in a single-sided M.2 2280 (22x80mm) form factor and will begin sampling in June.
