To create this speedy SSD, Gigabyte uses the Phison PS5016-E16 controller along with Toshiba's 96-layer 3D NAND TLC memory and an external DDR4 cache, which connects to a PC via a PCIe 4.0 x4 interface. Like other early PCIe 4.0 SSDs, the AORUS NVMe Gen 4 comes with a great heatsink design, opting for a solid, industrial copper look.

The new AORUS SSDs will come with 1 and 2TB capacities. Compared to standard PCIe 3.0 SSDs, Gigabyte offers a 40% performance improvement, claiming they are ready for the "next generation of computing systems."
When it comes to sequential performance, Gigabyte's AORUS NVMe Gen4 SSD offers read speeds that can reach 5, 000MB / s and write speeds of 4, 400MB / s. In terms of random read / write IOPS, the unit can also offer performance levels of 750, 000 / 700, 000 IOPS, with a 5 year warranty.
At the moment, it will only be able to work on AMD X570 platforms, so the Intel platform will not be able to take advantage of this speed, at the moment.
