PS5016-E16

Gen4x4 NVMe SSD Controller

The First Gen4x4 Consumer Client SSD Controller

Phison is proud to introduce the industry’s first M.2 PCIe Gen 4x4 NVMe SSD. Evolving its award winning, high performance, PS5012-E12 design, the new PS5016-E16, with a PCIe Gen 4x4 front end, can reach groundbreaking speeds of 5GB/s sequential read and 4.4GB/s sequential write for a single M.2 device. This groundbreaking performance will give you access to your data faster, and provide you with the best user experience for your PC.
With the next evolution of the PCI-Express interface ready for release, Phison will be the first and only company ready with a PCIe Gen 4x4 NVMe SSD solution. The E16 is the result of Phison’s decades of experience in memory technology, excellence in engineering, and innovation in flash memory products. Enabling the latest 96-layer 3D TLC NAND flash, the E16-based solutions offer capacities up to 2TB.

Advanced Features

PCIe Gen4x4

Fully compliant with PCI-Express 4.0, with a maximum throughput of 7.88 GB/s, the E16 can easily reach speeds of 5GB/s sequential reads and 4.4GB/s sequential writes, the fastest sequential reads and writes for a single M.2 SSD. It provides a 42% increase in sequential reads and 31% increase in sequential writes over the fastest Gen 3x4 SSD solution in the market.

Protecting Your Data

Using Phison’s 4th Generation LDPC ECC Engine, and fully integrated End-to-End data path protection, the E16 delivers an enhanced reliability for your SSD.
