Adata XPG Gammix S50 Lite PCIe Gen 4×4 M.2 2280 Up to 2TB SSD

Adata Technology Co Ltd. announces the XPG Gammix S50 Lite PCIe Gen 4×4 M.2 2280 SSD.

With the advent of 5G networks and the growing volume of data being processed, the PCIe Gen4 interface is an upgrade that will bring storage devices to the next level. The S50 Lite expands the Gammix S50 series with an option for mainstream users wanting to harness the capabilities of PCIe 4.0.

“With the launch of the S50 Lite, we have now extended our PCIe 4.0 SSD offering to meet not only the demands of early adopters but also mainstream users, whether for work or play,” said Ibsen Chen, director, product marketing, Adata. “With support from our strategic partners at Silicon Motion, we have invested in developing a next-gen SSD that is accessible and offers exceptional performance.”

“We are very excited that Adata has launched the new Gammix S50 Lite SSD powered by SMI’s new SM2267 PCIe Gen4 controller solution,” said Nelson S. Duann, SVP, marketing and R&D, Silicon Motion, Inc. “As a long-time partner, Silicon Motion offers best-in-class support to meet Adata’s high-quality requirements. The new Gammix S50 Lite and our SM2267 bring enhanced user experiences and high performance to help usher the upgrade cycle to PCIe Gen4 SSDs.”

Sporting a SMI SM2267 controller, the latest PCIe Gen4 interface, and compatible with NVMe 1.4, the S50 Lite can achieve sustained read and write performance of up to 3,900/3,200/MB/s, respectively. It also delivers random read and write performance of up to 490K/540K IO/s, giving users the advantage of expedited data transmissions for enhanced productivity and entertainment. In combination with Dynamic SLC Caching and Host Memory Buffer, the S50 Lite offers performance that is superior to that of SATA SSDs. The S50 Lite is backward compatible with PCIe 3.0.

The S50 Lite supports LDPC ECC technology to detect and fix a more range of data errors for more accurate data transfers and a higher Total Bytes Written (TBW) rating. In addition, with End-to-End (E2E) data protection, RAID engine support, and AES 256-bit encryption, it ensures data security. All of the components encased in the S50 Lite have passed screening, testing, and certification to provide a reliability product.

The S50 Lite comes in one and 2TB variants and is backed by a 5-year warranty.
