Nextorage rilascia la serie G ME M.2 2230 SSD da gioco
Both models use single-sided 3D TLC NAND Flash, ensuring compatibility with M.2 2230 slots and improved cooling due to top-mounted NAND. The SSD employs DRAM-less technology, utilizing the latest controller and 3D TLC NAND flash to balance speed and power efficiency. To compensate for the lack of DRAM caching, Nextorage implements a “Large-capacity Dynamic SLC Cache,” converting unused space into an SLC cache for enhanced performance.
Nextorage claims the DRAM-less design offers advantages in power consumption and operating temperatures, potentially reducing thermal throttling. The company aims to provide a comfortable gaming experience by suppressing temperature increases, making the G Series ME suitable for gaming applications with frequent reads.
Available currently on Japan market, gli 1 TB model has an MSRP of about $149, while the 2 TB version costs around $265. No exact date for worldwide availability.
