The Addlink A92 is a solid-state drive in the M.2 2280 form factor, launched on October 7th, 2021. It is available in capacities ranging from 1 TB to 4 TB. This page reports specifications for the 1 TB variant. With the rest of the system, the Addlink A92 interfaces using a PCI-Express 4.0 x4 connection. The SSD controller is the PS5016-E16-32 from Phison, a DRAM cache chip is available. Addlink has installed 96-layer QLC NAND flash on the A92, the flash chips are made by Micron. To improve write speeds, a pseudo-SLC cache is used, so bursts of incoming writes are absorbed more quickly. Thanks to support for the fast PCI-Express 4.0 interface, performance is excellent. The A92 is rated for sequential read speeds of up to 4,700 MB/s and 1,850 MB/s write; random IO reaches 180K IOPS for read and 450K for writes.
At its launch, the SSD was priced at 139 USD. The warranty length is set to five years, which is an excellent warranty period. Addlink guarantees an endurance rating of 200 TBW, a relatively low value compared to other SSDs.
