KIOXIA has received the FMS ‘Best of Show’ award in the ‘SSD Technology’ category with itsLC9 Series 245.76TB enterprise SSD with a 32-die stack flash memory. The award recognises cutting-edge products, services, and customer implementations that are pushing the boundaries of memory and storage technology.
With industry’s first 245.76TB NVMe SSD in a 2.5-inch and enterprise and datacenter standard form factor, KIOXIA’s LC9 series drives are well-suited to generative AI and enterprise applications.
“We recognise KIOXIA for its BiCS FLASH 3D flash memory and KIOXIA LC9 Series SSD. This solution enabled by their CMOS directly bonded to array (CBA) technology and the innovation of a 32-die stacked architecture in a package deliver the capacity, power and density required for transformational SSDs. Creating the highest capacity PCIe 5.0 enterprise SSD is a remarkable achievement,” said Jay Kramer, Chair of the Awards Program and President of Network Storage Advisors. “
The combination of advanced memory architecture and CBA technology enables 8TB in a small 154 BGA package – also an industry first. This milestone was made possible with advancements in KIOXIA’s high-precision wafer processing, material design, and wire bonding technologies.
KIOXIA LC9 Series SSDs are now sampling to customers.
