Silicon Motion, newly introduced SM8466 PCIE 6.0 SSD controller Increased the performance bar in data storage with. The new controller was developed with the production process of 4 nm of TSMC and equipped with high band width, lower delay time and corporate security features.
SM8466 controller, at sequential reading speed 28 GB/S Performance promises and this speed is almost twice as high as the available PCIE 5.0 solutions. In random reading and writing operations 7 Million IOPS By reaching its value, it aims to have a low delay in multiple tasks loads, especially in large -scale data centers. 512 TB NAND support with high capacity single driver configurations. However, these features were developed for corporate server and hyperskale environments rather than the consumer market.
Performance increase in sequential reading and writing rates and corporate systems is aimed at increasing
In the new controller, in order to support virtualization environments Sr-iov And Mpf such as advanced virtualization technologies. In addition, SCA Interface Thanks to the data, power and management connections can be provided through a single connector. This configuration reduces the cable complexity, while the data center offers practicality in assembly processes. On the security side AES-256 hardware encryption, Secure Boot support and TCG Opal Compliance with modern data protection standards.
According to Silicon Motion, SM8466 is also Smart monitoring system The owner and thus provides the opportunity to predict possible faults with the life of the driver. However, except for the data center applications of the high performance provided, it will not be possible in the short term. For desktop computers, the PCIE 6.0 support is still limited, which will be limited to more corporate solutions in the next few years.
With the output of SM8466 to the market PCIE 6.0 SSD technology The first steps were taken in the corporate segment. Silicon Motion emphasizes that SM8466 offers advanced features not only in speed and capacity and safety compared to existing products. PCIe 6.0 SSD models for consumer class systems are at best expected after 2027. Until this date, solutions such as SM8466 will continue to be used in cloud infrastructures and large data processing tasks.
Currently, performance and capacity demands in corporate storage systems increase continuously, while PCIE 6.0 SSD controllers come to the fore with the technologies developed for these needs. Especially 28 GB/S sequence speed And 7 Million IOPS Random Performance Values such as, real -time analysis and new options for transactions that require high bandwidth. With SM8466, Silicon Motion focuses on providing flexibility, speed and security balance in data centers.
