Xfmexpress, a new non-volatile memory standard from toshiba
Table of contents:
Toshiba announced the launch of a new XFMExpress non-volatile memory standard for use in thin and light consumer electronics, ultra-thin notebooks, and IO devices.
XFMExpress would be used in ultra-flat laptops and IO devices
Using XFMExpress, you can solve the problem of repairing thin and light devices, in which the solid state drive is rigidly mounted on the device on the motherboard and cannot be replaced. The alternative in the form of an M.2 size drive does not meet the thickness requirements of current devices.
The manufacturer specifies that XFMExpress does not compete with SD Express because it is not a removable media solution, but an internal storage device that is easy to replace. XFMExpress consists of two components: an XFMExpress module the size of an SD card (14 x 18 x 1.4 mm) and a connector developed by Toshiba in collaboration with JAE (Japan Aviation Electronics). Essentially, the connector is an LGA pin on the board and a steel clamp.

In terms of performance and capacity, XFMExpress drives are no different than M.2 NVMe solid state drives as they use the PCIe x4 interface and NVMe protocol. The XFMExpress module design includes the driver, DRAM cache, and 3D NAND flash memory.
With this new storage unit, Toshiba believes a need in the market for a storage standard that saves space and stays within devices, but allows for repair when removed from the laptop or IO device. In this way, they are not units that are going to replace the current SSD units that we see in stores.
