PHISON – PS5028-E28 Reference Design 2TB PCIe Gen5 M.2 NVMe SSD Preview & Benchmarks

“We’ve got a first look at the performance of the new Phison E28 controller, based around a 2TB PCIe 5.0 x4 NVMe M.2 SSD with KIOXIA BiCS8 218-layer TLC 3D NAND Flash. In this preview today, we’ll test the Phison E28 controller-based SSD and see what kind of performance might be delivered from partner models when SSDs using the Phison E28 controller become available. PCIe 5.0 Gen5 SSDs just got a whole lot better.

Phison PS5028-E28 Reference Design 2TB SSD

We actually saw the Phison E28 controller-based SSD in person back at CES 2025 this past January. Phison was previewing the E28 controller at the beginning of this year. As we noted then, one of Phison’s goals with the E28 controller is to reduce power usage and heat generation compared to the previous E26 controller. Phison has now moved to TSMC’s 6nm processor node to accomplish this for the E28 controller.”- thefpsreview.com
