ADATA announces its S40G RGB SSD in 256GB, 512GB, 1TB and 2TB capacities
S40G includes customizable RGB lighting placed throughout the aluminum heatsink, giving the device a style any player will appreciate.
Performance wise, the S40G uses the PCIe 3.0 x4 interface along with SLC caching and an internal DRAM buffer, allowing the module to achieve some of the highest rated speeds we've seen on a single SSD in this format.. The ADATA S40G line can achieve up to 300K / 240K IOPS (4K Random Reads), which is also quite fast on paper. ADATA did not mention the controller used to achieve these speeds, but we imagine that it is the Silicon Motion SM2262EN.
