Kioxia Introduces New BG6 Series Client SSDs, Brings PCIe® 4.0 Performance and Affordability to the Mainstream

TOKYO, May 23 (Bernama-BUSINESS WIRE) — Kioxia Corporation today announced the addition of the KIOXIA BG6 Series to its lineup of PCIe® 4.0 solid state drives (SSDs) – the first product to feature the company’s new 6th generation BiCS FLASH™ 3D flash memory[¹] and almost 1.7 times the performance of its predecessor[²]. Designed to unleash the increased speeds and affordability of PCIe® 4.0 for PC users, the powerful and compact KIOXIA BG6 Series client SSDs offer a discrete M.2 2230 form factor with higher capacities and improved power efficiency. M.2 2280 single-sided form factor versions are also available. The KIOXIA BG6 Series will start sampling in the second half of 2023 for OEM customer evaluation.

The KIOXIA BG6 Series unlocks back-end flash performance while maintaining affordability and increasing capacity, making it an especially attractive option for commercial and consumer notebooks and desktops. The KIOXIA BG6 drives support the fully matured Host Memory Buffer (HMB) technology, which utilizes part of the host memory (DRAM) as if it were its own, to realize a DRAM-less, high-performance SSD.
