KIOXIA has announced that its KIOXIA LC9 Series 245.76 terabyte (TB)1 enterprise SSD, utilising a 32-die stack KIOXIA BiCS FLASH generation 8 QLC 3D flash memory, has received the FMS ‘Best of Show’ award in the ‘SSD Technology’ category. These awards recognise the cutting-edge products, services, and customer implementations that are pushing the boundaries of memory and storage technology.
The industry’s first 245.76 terabyte (TB)[1] NVMe SSD in a 2.5-inch and Enterprise and Datacenter Standard Form Factor (EDSFF) E3.L form factor, KIOXIA LC9 Series drives are well-suited to generative AI and enterprise applications.
“When customers evaluate SSDs, important consideration is given to storage that scales to high capacities while delivering high performance and low power consumption,” said Jay Kramer, Chair of the Awards Program and President of Network Storage Advisors Inc. “We are proud to recognise KIOXIA for its BiCS FLASH 3D flash memory and KIOXIA LC9 Series SSD. This solution enabled by their CBA (CMOS directly Bonded to Array) technology and the innovation of a 32-die stacked architecture in a package – delivering the capacity, power and density required for transformational SSDs. Creating the highest capacity[2PCIe 5.0 enterprise SSD is a remarkable achievement and a clear reflection of KIOXIA’s leadership position.”
