“The Phison E31T drives are finally here and arriving by the dozen. Here, I have Kioxia’s Exceria Plus G4, and it is quite the curious thing. Powered with a mix of both Kioxia flash and Phison controller tech, it’s aimed squarely at those looking for an entry-level PCIe 5.0 drive. One that doesn’t break the bank and yet still delivers. This isn’t a top-tier WD Black SN8100 or similar; instead, it’s all about efficiency, about reducing the need for heatsinks, and for wider compatibility with laptops, consoles, and other devices that just don’t have the luxury of high airflow, like us humble PC gamers have.
. . .
It’s the beating heart of this thing that’s the most curious addition here. Phison’s E31T controller. It’s not the first time I’ve tested it, as we saw it inside of Corsair’s MP700 Elite as well. It’s effectively based off the design of the Phison E26 controller, but with some major changes to bring that efficiency way up. Phison’s shifted the manufacturing process over to TSMC’s 7 nm lithography, got rid of all of the DRAM cache support, and split total max bandwidth in half as well.”- pcgamer.com
