We stopped by at the 2025 International CES booth of Lexar, a brand known for high-quality memory and storage products for creative professionals and gamers alike. Our tour begins with the new Lexar NM1090 PRO, the company's flagship M.2 NVMe Gen 5 SSD, which is capable sequential speeds of up to 14 GB/s reads, with up to 13 GB/s writes. The drive comes in capacities of 1 TB, 2 TB, and 4 TB. Next up, we spotted the Lexar ARES DDR5 CUDIMM. This particular model offers speeds of DDR5-9600 and a density of 16 GB, to make 32 GB kits. From what we hear, this should easily overclock beyond the 10,000 MT/s mark on "Arrow Lake-S" with Gear 4.

We also spotted Lexar's popular flash storage products, including CFexpress type-A and type-B memory cards under the Lexar Diamond Professional brand. The CFexpress type-A card offers sequential speeds of up to 3.7 GB/s reads, up to 3.4 GB/s writes, and a 400 MB/s write speed guarantee. The CFexpress type-B card offers up to 1.8 GB/s sequential reads, up to 1.4 GB/s sequential writes, and a 400 MB/s guaranteed write speed. Next up, is the Lexar Armor SD card meant for high-endurance applications, such as FPV drones, action cameras, and surveillance, with 280 MB/s max reads, 210 MB/s max writes, and 60 MB/s guaranteed write speeds. Lastly, the company showcased its Workflow Go line of portable 2-way backup solutions, which let you dock in your high-speed storage devices for rapid backup.

You confused the CFexpress types. Type B is the bigger one with 3.xGB/s, Type A is the smaller one (same format as SD card) with only 1.xGB/s.

Still havent seen Armor series for sale, if they are anything like Sony Tough series then they should be a lot less fragile than conventional SD cards.

Type B has 2x PCIe lanes(gen 3 or gen 4) while Type A is restricted to 1x lane(gen 3 or gen 4) due to smaller size(they are quite a bit smaller than SD cards).
