Addressing these requirements is central to the design of the KIOXIA CM9 Series, which is purpose-built to support next-generation data center workloads. At the core of the CM9 Series is Kioxia's 8th generation BiCS FLASH™, the company's most advanced 3D flash memory to date. This technology employs a CBA-based architecture that significantly increases the NAND interface speed, enhances density and power efficiency and lowers latency – directly benefitting SSD performance. KIOXIA CM9 Series SSDs deliver performance improvements of up to approximately 65% in random write, 55% in random read, and 95% in sequential write compared to the previous generation, the KIOXIA CM7 Series. In addition, performance-per-watt gains include approximately 55% better sequential read and 75% better sequential write efficiency. KIOXIA CM9 Series SSD highlights include (preliminary and subject to change): PCIe® 5.0, NVMe™ 2.0, NVMe-MI™ 1.2c, and OCP Datacenter NVMe™ SSD 2.5 specification-compliant Dual-port support in 2.5-inch and E3.S form factors Read-intensive (1 DWPD) and mixed-use (3 DWPD) endurances Sequential performance (128 kibibytes (KiB)/QD32) – 14.8 GB/s read and 11 GB/s write Random performance (4KiB) – 3,400 KIOPS (QD512) and 800 KIOPS (QD32) 2.5-inch capacities up to 61.44 terabytes (TB) and E3.S capacities up to 30.72 TB KIOXIA CM9 Series SSDs are now sampling to select customers and will be showcased at Dell Technologies World, taking place May 19 – 22 in Las Vegas.
