G.Skill's Phoenix Blade PCIe SSD has 2000MB/s transfer rates

G.SKILL releases a Phoenix Blade 480GB PCIe SSD with ultra fast Read/Write speed and IOPS. The PCIe SSD has been built upon x4 LSI SF-2281 SSD controllers setup in RAID0, then combined with NAND it offers a fast 480GB SSD array that can manage speeds of up-to 2000 MB/sec and 245K IOPS.

 

G.SKILL Phoenix Blade PCIe SSD is designed with a PCIe Gen 2.0 x8 high-speed interface, allowing the system to effortlessly send massive amounts of data to and from the SSD and drastically improves performance for professional and industrial graphic applications. With 480 gigabytes of storage capacity, the G.SKILL Phoenix Blade PCIe SSD is pushing the maximum limit of read and write speeds at up to 2,000MB per second

 

TRIM and SCSI UNMAP support with major Windows OS versions help maintain consistent write performance, reduce flash deterioration, and most importantly, extend drive life expectancy. Not to mention an extensive set of S.M.A.R.T. attributes allow users to monitor the drive's health, allowing users to take preventative measures against possible data loss.

 

CRC data protection prevents data corruption during data transfers. By implementing BCH ECC of up to 55 bits per sector and RAID-5-like data protection, flash cell errors and page/block failures are yesterday's news.

 

 

G.Skill covers the Phoenix Blade with a three-year warranty. The endurance rating is pegged at 1536TiB of total writes,

Hopefully it's priced to compete with the OCZ RevoDrive.

The logo reminds me of Corsair GAMING.

But better or worse?

With 2000 mb/s transfer rates they can put a tribal tattoo vagina on it for all I care.

Besides it is inside your PC so no one will see it

I want....

 

 

Seems that Tom's Hardware tried contacting them on price and availability. They were reluctant to give Tom's a straightforward answer all they told them was it comes in only a 480GB capacity. 

 

so.......$1000+ then

Well if it's supposed to compete with the RevoDrive it will have to be under $800

Still far too expensive for me.

2000MB/s would obviously be PCI-E based. Not really surprised but damn that's quick.

Not bad, would like to see more capacity options down the road.

 

Also, look, another damn tramp stamp. First ASUS(?), then Corsair and now G.Skill? I don't remember G.Skill using that logo before...

Well for the price this thing is going to be you could probably get a baller raid card and 4 ssds, running them in raid zero would get you 2000 mb/s reads and writes without the shitty logo. Would have to deal with green pcb though.

Desktop -  i5 4670k, GTX 770, Maximums VI Hero, 2X Kingston Hyper X 3k in raid zero.

Laptop - Lenovo X230 Intel 535 480GB, 16GB Gskill memory, Classic Keyboard Mod, Triple USB 3.0 Express Card.

Well then you have 4 SSD's not a single PCB plugged into PCI-E, Depends on form factor.

Wooooo more tramp stamp logos!

 

It's G.Skill, everything they make looks tasteless.

 

Still, if it's a good piece of kit I might get it and spray paint the plastic.

In case the moderators do not ban me as requested, this is a notice that I have left and am not coming back.
