Add a commentADATA Technology Co., Ltd., the world's leading memory brand, is committed to exploring breakthroughs that lead to extreme performance. PCIe Gen5 SSDs are extremely fast but this powerful performance generates a corresponding degree of heat. In order to enhance stability and prolong product lifespan as well as maintain optimal speeds, innovative cooling solutions are a must for these latest generation SSDs. During Computex 2023, the company will announce the launch of a number of patented SSD cooling solutions, not only speeding past the competition, but also taking the lead in heat dissipation.
Project NeonStorm Gen5 solid-state drive (SSD) is the first in the industry to introduce a liquid and fan-cooled heat dissipation design on a M.2 SSD. It uses coolant to absorb and then dual fans to dissipate heat, creating a perfect convection ecosystem. The LEGEND 970 Gen5 SSD adopts a dual-layer aluminum alloy heatsink and fan to create active air cooling and a surface crystallization coating to improve thermal conductivity. The SE920 USB4 external SSD has a built-in micro fan to quickly discharge heat which is activated by extending the retractable casing. The structural R & D and excellent heat dissipating characteristics of these designs are expected to become the most influential benchmark for extreme storage in the consumer market.
