A quick DDG, and it seems that Phison used a realy, REALLY stupid name for the product, it's not a 1x PCI-E devices, it's a 4x controller, bad Phison :banghead:

The M.2 factor used in consumer motherboards is pretty restricting but there's also a lot of price gouging for anything over 2TB in the M.2 form factor and a lot of the cheaper SATA drives like the MX500 have horrid endurance ratings often less than half the Samsung QVO.
Anyone looking for a PCIe SSD will look at this and think it's a gimped product against the competition. I guess it's saving grace is that physon (afaik) doesn't sell ssd's and surely the guys selling storage (like partner seagate) will come up with smarter names for the product lineWhat does that mean? First manufactured in taiwan? First designed from the ground up with asic blocks instead of a couple arm cores? Other option?
Apart from a few SSD's that are wholly made by the parent company (Samsung is a clear example).
Which companies make SSD's with Phison controllers.? I know it's a lot, so specifics IMHO are absolutely necessary. What was the brand, the model and capacity, and how was it used.? The answers to those questions IMHO would clear the air, and help people focus on the details.
I believe they had a few sketchy ones after that too and more recently.
