There’s a new SSD that’s about to make its mark and it modifications issues.\u00a0 It’s the mSSD, brief for microSSD, and Longsys holds the patented IP (mental property) with Lexar already pushing ahead with their Play X Gen4 SSD and AI Storage Core releases.\u00a0 It has been mentioned at some size by different corporations, nonetheless we’ve got the primary in hand.\u00a0 This 30mm x 20mm x 2mm system\u00a0 is true now the worlds smallest, quickest and coolest knowledge storage system. I suppose displaying it atop of a 640MB 3.5\u2033 arduous drive makes some sense, particularly since this small system supplies 1638 occasions extra storage, but weighs solely 2.2g in comparison with the 635g of this tough drive.<\/p>\n
The important thing to the Longsys mSSD is the truth that all SSD parts are built-in right into a single chip design. SSD controller, NAND and PMIC (Energy Administration Built-in Circuit) are all contained inside a wafer stage SiP (System in Bundle).\u00a0 By doing this, Longsys has decreased near 1000 solder joints that we’d see in a typical SSD, rising high quality by lowering issues similar to solder contaminatiion, element interference, in addition to reliability degradation attributable to warmth and humidity.\u00a0 This additionally cuts product defect charges from 1000 DPPM (Faulty Elements per Million) to 100 and lowers manufacturing prices by 10%.\u00a0 That\u2019s worth to the patron.<\/p>\n The whole lot is enclosed inside a single bundle. Top quality, excessive effectivity, low value and there may be yet another function that the majority haven\u2019t actually thought-about.\u00a0 That is the best Gen4 SSD we’ve got ever had in hand by a longshot\u2026 and it runs at 7GB\/s and over one million IOPS.<\/p>\n Smaller than a typical SDXC card, and exponentially quicker than even a CFExpress Sort B card.\u00a0 The mSSD achieves true PCIe 4.0 speeds as much as 7400MB\/s learn and 6500MB\/s write with over 1 million learn and write IOPS at low 4K random disk entry.\u00a0 This SSD helps QLC and TLC NAND, shall be out there in sizes from 512GB to 4TB, and its energy effectivity complies with NVMe L1.2 low energy customary of being equal to or decrease than 3.5mW.<\/p>\n Huabo Cai is the Chairman of Shenzen Longsys Electronics Co. Ltd which owns each Foresee and Lexar.\u00a0 We met with him and his son Anderson at CES 2026 Las Vegas and he offered the above engineering samples for our testing. This was a really unusual and sudden honour. High left is a Gen4 1TB mSSD with a 512 capability slightly below and proper.<\/p>\n There may be additionally a 2280 (22mm vast x 80mm lengthy)\u00a0 in addition to a 2242 M.2 provider by which the SSD could be slid into every, relying on the dimensions of SSD required for set up.\u00a0 That is the Longsys \u2018Workplace is Manufacturing unit\u2019 idea and the aluminum casing of those tool-free clip on enlargement playing cards additionally acts as heatsink for the SSD.<\/p>\n With respect to our testing, this SSD identifies as a Lexar NM790 Gen4 SSD so we all know the controller inside is a Maxio 1602 Gen4 4-channel DRAMless SSD controller. We can’t affirm NAND as of but however we’re informed that this may be as excessive as a 4TB SSD which makes this SSD the smallest and quickest on the planet, particularly since it’s a single-sided SSD.<\/p>\n May this be the top of CFExpress and so many comparable type elements as we all know them?\u00a0 May this open a complete new avenue for SSD chip integration?<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.thessdreview.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Longsys-mSSD.jpg\")
