The Silicon Power UD70 is a solid-state drive in the M.2 2280 form factor, launched on July 14th, 2020. It is available in capacities ranging from 500 GB to 4 TB. This page reports specifications for the 4 TB variant. With the rest of the system, the Silicon Power UD70 interfaces using a PCI-Express 3.0 x4 connection. The SSD controller is the PS5012-E12S-32 from Phison, a DRAM cache chip is available. Silicon Power has installed 96-layer QLC NAND flash on the UD70, the flash chips are made by Micron. To improve write speeds, a pseudo-SLC cache is used, so bursts of incoming writes are handled more quickly. The UD70 is rated for sequential read speeds of up to 3,400 MB/s and 3,000 MB/s write.
At its launch, the SSD was priced at 360 USD. The warranty length is set to five years, which is an excellent warranty period. The TBW rating for the Silicon Power UD70 4 TB is unknown.

Notes

Controller:

2 main cores using Cortex-R5 clocked at 667 MHz with CoXProcessor technology (one additional dual-core) Cortex-R5 clocked at a lower clock for better efficience. The difference between this revision and the E12 revision is that this has a nichel IHS to improve the temperature, a smaller size, smaller node (12nm TSMC FinFET) and this works with less DRAM capacity.

NAND Die:

tPROG with overhead: 2080 µs (Avg 30 MB/s per die)
