Samsung unveiled world’s highest-performing SSD PM1653, supports 4th-gen SAS interface

While various OEMs are busy introducing smartphones in various categories, Samsung is covering every field of the industry by presenting smartphones, tablets, home appliances, smart TVs, smart home gadgets, storage devices, and much more. Following its habit, the company has recently announced the world’s highest-performing 24G SAS (SAS-4) SSD, the PM1653.

This new SSD PM1653 can support twice the speed of the previous 12G SAS-3 generation and based on the latest SAS interface. Moreover, it is the first 24G SAS SSD made with sixth-generation (1xx-layer) V-NAND chips that offers storage capacities from 800GB to 30.72TB for advanced enterprise server systems.

However, the readiness of the host bus adapter (HBA) system is required to build a strong 24G SAS ecosystem in the enterprise market. And Samsung is working with the major HBA supplier Broadcom to ensure a smooth and timely transition to this new SAS milestone.

Samsung has optimized the PM1653 SSD for high-performance enterprise servers. It deliveries the world’s highest random read speed of up to 800K IOPS. Besides, its sequential read speed can reach 4,300MB/s, which is 2x than the previous generation.

According to Samsung, it has begun sampling the PM1653 SSD with select customers and plans to begin mass production in the second half of this year.
