ADATA Launches XPG GAMMIX S50 PCIe Gen4 SSD
ADATA Technology (Taiwan Stock Exchange: 3260.TWO), a leading manufacturer of high-performance DRAM modules, NAND Flash products, and mobile accessories today announces the launch of the XPG GAMMIX S50 PCIe Gen 4 x4 M.2 2280 solid state drive (SSD). Utilizing next-generation PCIe Gen 4 x4 and implementing the NVMe 1.3 standard, the S50 delivers blazing-fast read/write performance of 5000 / 4400 MB per second. What's more, it features an aluminium heat sink for excellent heat dissipation, 3D Flash memory with up to 2 TB capacity, SLC caching, a DRAM cache buffer, End-to-End Data Protection, and Low-Density Parity-Check (LDPC) error correcting code technology.
The S50 supports the NVMe standard and utilizes the latest PCIe Gen 4 x4 interface to let users enjoy sustained read/write speeds of up to 5000 / 4400 MB per second. What's more, with 3D Flash memory it offers a leap forward in capacity, efficiency, and durability. Also with the M.2 2280 specification, it supports the latest Intel and AMD platforms. These capabilities make the S50 ideally suited for gamers, PC enthusiasts, overclockers, and graphics professionals.
Leap into the Future with PCIe 4.0
Sporting the latest PCIe Gen 4 x4 interface, the S50 offers speeds that are up to it ten times faster than a SATA SSD and is fully compatible with PCIe 3.0. In combination with SLC caching, a DRAM cache buffer, the S50 delivers sustained read/write speeds of up to 5000/4400MB per second and random read/write of up to 750K/750K IOPS.
Stays and Looks Cool
The S50 stays in any firefight thanks to its aluminium heat sink. The heat sink can reduce temperatures by up to 10 degrees for ultimate stability. Not only does it keep the S50 cool, but it also looks cool too with its sports-car-inspired design.
In Pursuit of Efficiency
The S50 supports LDPC error correcting code technology to detect and fix a wider range of data errors for more accurate data transfers and a longer SSD lifespan. In addition, with E2E (End-to-End) Data Protection and RAID Engine support, the S50 ensures data security and integrity.
Every component on the S50 has passed meticulous screening, testing, and certification. What's more, it comes backed by a 5-year warranty.
Exact availability of the S50 may vary by region.

"It seems that the Adata XPG SX8200 Pro features a two-tiered write cache. During the first minute of the test, the drive wrote over 165GB of data at an average rate of 2.85GB/s. Then performance degraded to an average of 1.1GB/s over the next 7-8 minutes while the drive wrote an additional 500GB of data. After that, it degraded once more to an average of 615MB/s. So, for those of you who write lots of large files, the SX8200 Pro should be able to handle the workload without much issue."
and anandtech the test is done after slc cache is full.

cheaper and faster
On topic, what controller is used in this drive? Adata hasn't used phison controllers in the past so this might be the first non-e16 pcie4.
www.amazon.ca/Silicon-Power-NVMe-Gen3x4-000MB/dp/B07QR8LD7Y/ref=sr_1_28?keywords=NVME&qid=1564490218&refinements=p_n_feature_three_browse-bin%3A7329965011%7C7329967011&rnid=7329964011&s=pc&sr=1-28He is not a troll, everyone on here likes to share their opinions on tech.Apparently the Phison is the controller of choice for almost all PCI_E 4.0 NVME drives.
how is comparing ssd drives not on topic in a thread about ssd drives ? did your feelings get hurt cause you own one of the drives I mentioned ?
the controller's name is in the picture,in capital letters
