“Phison pioneered the PCIe 5.0 SSD transition with its award-winning E26 SSD controllers that powered nearly every one of the new speedy SSDs when they first arrived, but now the Phison E28 promises to take performance and efficiency to new heights.<\/p>\n

The Phison E28 delivers huge efficiency gains by using a smaller 6nm process node that cuts power consumption dramatically. At Computex 2025, Phison demoed its new controller handily beating the competing SMI 2508 in power consumption during nearly every type of operation. That equates to lower heat generation, meaning these SSDs won\u2019t require bulky coolers, and will also help PCIe 5.0 SSDs finally make their way into mainstream OEM laptops.”- tomshardware.com<\/p>\n

The Phison E28 delivers up to 14.8 GB\/s of sequential read\/write performance and a blistering 2.5 \/ 3.0 million random read\/write IOPS, speeds which were unthinkable a mere few years ago.<\/p> Phison says we\u2019ll see a wave of E28-powered SSDs coming later this year, with a likely\u00a0CES<\/a> 2026 launch date. In fact, we saw plenty of E28 SSDs scattered throughout the Computex show floor at all of the main SSD vendors, proving that we won\u2019t have to wait much longer for SSDs with extreme speeds coupled with excellent power efficiency.\"- tomshardware.com<\/p>
