PHISON – Micron 2600 Gen4 DRAMless SSD Review

“It is not often that a new SSD brings alot to the table.  Sure, many might introduce new memory, or a  new SSD controller, but it is rare that we are introduced to an SSD that literally changes the landscape of what is possiible with flash media.  The Micron 2600 Gen 4 QLC SSD we are testing today does just that, and then more.   The 2600 is a DRAMless SSD debuting Micron’s own G9 276-layer 4-bit QLC NAND and that G9 NAND is paired with Phison’s latest PS5029-E29 4-channel Gen4 DRAMless SSD controller.  But that’s only the start of things…

. . .

So… Micron has introduced to the world their newest G9 276-layer QLC NAND flash memory paired with Phison’s newest E29T Gen4 DRAMless 4-channel SSD controller, as well as Micron’s brand new Advanced Write Technology (AWT).  This entire package fits  into the Micron 2600 Gen 4 QLC DRAMless SSD which provides the best performance we have ever seen from QLC NAND, performance right up there with TLC based SSDs… and it is not available to the public.  True fact.  Well kind of.  This is a client SSD available to manufacturers and you can bet it is going to become an extremely popular SSD integrated into PCs, laptops and ultras… and most will never know of this amazing technology in their systems as it is simply one integrated component.”- thessdreview.com
