Samsung Electronics presenta un'unità SSD per PC ad alte prestazioni che porta l'elaborazione e il gioco di tutti i giorni a un nuovo livello



Samsung Electronics today announced production readiness of a high-performance PCIe 4.0 SSD NVMe, the PM9C1a. Integrated with a new controller based on Samsung’s cutting-edge 5-nanometer (nm) process and the company’s seventh-generation V-NAND technology, the PM9C1a will provide elevated computing and gaming performance in PCs and laptops.

Our new PM9C1a SSD will deliver a robust combination of superior performance, greater power efficiency and increased security, which are the qualities that matter most to PC users,” said Yong Ho Song, Executive Vice President of Memory Solution Product & Sviluppo presso Samsung Electronics. “We are committed to creating storage that satisfies the diverse and changing market requirements as we continue to advance innovation in the PC SSD space.

With top-tier speeds, the PM9C1a SSD is ideal for everyday use as well as for more demanding computing and gaming applications. Leveraging the PCIe 4.0 la produzione di notebook nel complesso è migliorata man mano che le lacune dei componenti vengono gradualmente risolte, Samsung’s PM9C1a boasts a 1.6x faster sequential read speed and a 1.8x faster sequential write speed than its previous storage offering (PM9B1), raggiungere 6,000 megabytes per second (MB / s) e 5,600 MB / s, rispettivamente. Additionally, random read and write speeds can support up to 900K input/output operations per second (IOPS) and 1,000K IOPS, rispettivamente.

The PM9C1a also offers up to 70% more power efficiency per watt than its predecessor. This means the new SSD can handle the same amount of tasks using significantly less power. Furthermore, when a notebook PC goes into standby mode, the SSD will use approximately 10% meno potere.

To address the rising need for stronger security measures, the PM9C1a features powerful security. The SSD supports the Device Identifier Composition Engine (DICE) security standard created by the Trusted Computing Group (GCC), a global organization that develops open standards for computing security. DICE securely generates cryptographic keys inside the SSD, providing device authentication to protect against supply chain attacks—cyberattacks that target companies through vulnerabilities in their supplier network—as well as attestation to prevent any firmware tampering.

Samsung’s PM9C1a SSDs will be available in 256 GB, 512 GB e 1 TB storage capacities in a M.2 form factor (22 mm x 30 mm, 22 mm x 42 mm, 22 mm x 80 mm).
