Silicon Power US70 PCIe Gen 4×4 SSD Announced

by Lyle Smith

Silicon Power has announced the US70 SSD, which is highlighted by its PCIe Gen 4×4 interface (backwards-compatibility with PCIe 3.0), 3D NAND flash memory, and NVMe 1.3 support. Built specifically for gamers, professional designers/editors, and prosumers looking for a new high-speed storage solution, the US70 is quoted with impressive read and write speeds up to 5,000MB/s and 4,400MB/s, respectively. Silicon Power’s new SSD also features wear leveling to equalize the wear of each NAND flash block to help promote reliability and stability of the drive.

The Silicon Power US70 SSD is equipped with built-in bad block management (BBM) mechanism, which identifies bad blocks in the NAND flash so that it can avoid storage in these blocks and eliminate access errors. It includes also features over-provision to increase reserved space, improve performance/durability, and reduce NAND flash wear.

Silicon Power indicates the following other highlights of the US70 SSD:

  • NVMe 1.3 support allows for higher performance, lower latency, and lower power consumption
  • Supports SLC Caching and DRAM Cache Buffer to improve sequential read/write and random read/write performance
  • Built-in E2E data protection for enhanced data transfer integrity
  • Engineered with low density parity check (LDPC) coding to ensure accuracy of data transmission and reliability of data access
  • Supports TRIM commands, enabling the SSD to efficiently manage reusable space as well as significantly reduce hard drive wear out
  • Features our proprietary S.M.A.R.T. software for operational monitoring at any time
