We get hands-on with the latest Gen5 SSD controller from Phison, the PS5031-E31T

Phison is pushing the limits of low-power and high-performance storage devices with its new range of PCIe and USB controllers. From enterprise NAND flash storage to portable handheld gaming system upgrades, Phison has it covered, offering a growing range of controllers for drives and devices in all market segments. At …

The era of PCIe 5.0 storage is approaching. Intel Alder Lake already supports such devices, and with the Raphael platform, AMD-based systems will also be able to use them. With the foundations almost set, it's time for the PCIe controller manufacturers to make their solutions available to SSD makers. One …

We'll be swiftly moving on to PCIe 5.0 this year and we can expect the first new SSDs fairly soon. This week at Computex, Phison announced a new collaboration with AMD and Micron to build a PCIe Gen 5 ecosystem. On Phison's end, this will include the new PS5026-E26 SSD …

We are still some months, if not a year, from seeing the first consumer PCIe 5.0 SSDs. Still, Phison, an SSD controller manufacturer, is already giving fair warning about the temperatures of these SSDs. SSDs are becoming faster and consuming more power with each new generation. According to Phison (via …

PCIe 4.0 is currently the fastest standard we have for consumer SSDs, but with Intel Alder Lake-S coming later this year, we expect to see the first PCIe 5.0 SSDs hitting the market in the near future. This week, Phison revealed that its PCIe 5.0 SSD controller is coming next …

We go over our picks for the top PCIe 4.0 SSDs of 2020

Back in 2019, we heard rumblings from a few sources that the current batch of super-fast PCIe 4.0 SSDs were just the beginning. We were told at the time that a next-gen Phison SSD controller was already in the works, which would push beyond the 5,000MB/s speeds we are currently …

While we were at Computex earlier this year, we heard rumblings from a few sources that the current batch of super-fast PCIe 4.0 SSDs were just the beginning. We were told at the time that a next-gen Phison SSD controller was already in the works, which would push speeds beyond …

The storage arm of Corsair has been pretty quiet over the last few months; the last drive we looked at was the Neutron XTi high-end drive back in July 2016. But they are back with a bang at the sharp end with the Force MP500, the fastest SSD drive they …

Phison, once an underdog on the market of controllers for solid-state drives, today is one of the leading independent designers of SSD controllers. In a bid to further strengthen its positions on the market, Phison plans to spend up to $320 million on mergers and acquisitions, build a research and …

Kingston Technology, a leading manufacturer of memory modules, solid-state drives and other memory products, recently increased its stake in Phison, an independent designer of NAND flash controllers. The investment will help Phison to fund development of SSD controllers better suited for Kingston. Kingston will acquire 10.4 million shares of Phison …

Solid-state drives have a lot of advantages over hard disk drives, especially when it comes to mobile devices. Unfortunately, due to relatively high prices on SSDs with adequate capacities, hard drives are used in the vast majority of notebooks nowadays. But chief executive officer of Phison Electronics, a maker of …

Although it is well known that the Serial ATA-6Gb/s interface does not allow modern high-performance solid-state drives to show their whole potential, the majority of PC makers and SSD manufacturers continue to use it due to cost and inventory management simplification reasons. However, a lot is going to change starting …

Kingston’s V-series solid-state drives have always been among the most affordable in the industry, yet, they feature Kingston’s quality, reliability and warranty. However, up to recently affordability also meant rather low capacity and performance. The new Kingston V310 SSD changes that: it offers 960GB capacity and promises to be affordable …

Phison Electronics, an independent developer of controllers for solid-state drives (SSDs), may lower prices of its products in a bid to boost shipments. The company needs to gain market share since large SSD producers tend to use their own controllers inside its drives nowadays, as a result, going forward it …

The consolidation on the market of solid-state drives is in full swing right now. Just recently Seagate agreed to acquire LSI SandForce and LSI Nytro divisions from Avago, whereas yesterday SanDisk announced its takeover of Fusion-io. It is not surprising that large makers of SSDs and NAND flash memory are …
