Phison's Apex RAID demo showed us blistering 113 GB/s speeds in Computex demo
When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. Phison has been showcasing its data storage innovations at Computex 2025. Of particular interest, we attended a partner demo where the firm utilized 32 of its latest and greatest PCIe Gen5 SSDs in a RAID setup. During the demo, we saw CrystalDiskMark report data transfer rates as high as 113.6 GB/s for reads, and 104.6 GB/s for writes. This demonstration of extraordinary speed was enabled by a powerful modern workstation PC and a mix of cutting-edge storage components. Specifically, Phison utilized an AMD Ryzen Threadripper Pro 7978WX CPU, installed on an Asus Pro WS WRX90E-Sage SE motherboard, as the foundation of the system. The storage subsystem consisted of 32 of Phison's potent new E28 Gen5 SSDs installed across a trio of Apex Storage X16 Gen5 add-in cards. All these components were installed in a sweet-looking be quiet! chassis, as you can see. Image 1 of 3 Image 2 of 3 Image 3 of 3 Phison's new E28 Gen5 SSD rubs shoulders with the best in consumer mid-2025 PC land. A single E28 Gen5 in a modern PC will be able to deliver data transfer speeds of up to 14.8 GB/s reads and 14.0 GB/s writes. The Phison E28 Gen5 is being marketed as 'the weapon of choice for serious gaming and productivity,' so it is definitely targeting consumers. Its controller features a quad-CPU architecture, is fabbed on TSMC's 6nm node, and supports up to 32 TB. Here we had 32 of Phison's new E28 Gen5 SSDs; however, each Apex Storage X16 Gen5 add-in card can fit 16 M.2 SSDs (there's a clue in the name), so two would have sufficed for a 32x SSD demo. We guess three cards were installed for optimal performance, load balancing, or another nuance of the Threadripper-powered Windows system. The storage performance in this setup seems remarkable. Witnessed data transfer rates as high as 113.6 GB/s for reads, and 104.6 GB/s for writes might seem amazing. However, it was confirmed by a Phison rep that the Windows kernel was actually holding back performance. Image 1 of 3 Image 2 of 3 Image 3 of 3 Apex Storage's new X16 Gen5 add-in card features the PM584 Microchip switch that has 84 lanes, claimed to support the full 16 M.2 at full bandwidth. We were told each X16 Gen5 card also has a limit of 128TB of addressable storage, at this time (that would require using 32x 4TB drives). If you are interested in the Apex Storage X16 Gen5 card, we were told that it ships in 30 days and will cost $3,995 without any storage onboard.

Phison launches the first ever SSD controller to have built-in AI processing, along with some monstrous random data performance figures
When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. When it comes to the world of PC gaming, a new SSD controller chip is unlikely to garner many headlines, as it's normally the solid state drives they're used in that are more newsworthy. But at this year's Computex event, SSD specialist Phison announced a new controller that is faster and more power efficient than the competition, and even has integrated AI processing to speed up…well…AI processing. The controller in question is the rather unassumingly titled E28, and it's already picked up an award at Computex for its innovation. Manufactured on TSMC's N6 process node, Phison says the E28 sports random read/write rates of 2,600K and 3,000K IOPS, respectively. To put those figures into perspective, the best gaming SSD, the new WD Black SN7100, only goes up to 760K and 1,200K IOPS in each case. Even compared to Phison E31T, its best consumer-grade SSD controller, the figures are still mighty. That little chip, shown above in the Corsair MP700 Elite, can reach random read/write rates of 1,500K and 2,200 IOPS. The E28 makes it look positively slow. Phison also claims that the E28 controller uses 15% less power than other 6 nm SSD controllers, although it doesn't specify which others it's comparing the new chip to. Either way, less power means less heat, and that's good news all around when it comes to ultra-fast storage. Computex 2025 Catch up with Computex 2025: We're stalking the halls of Taiwan's biggest tech show once again to see what Nvidia, AMD, Intel, Asus, Gigabyte, MSI and more have to offer. As to why the E28 boasts such monstrously high random data rates, it's because the chip is designed to be used in AI workloads and even comes with built-in circuitry for accelerating data flows during inference and token processing. Phison goes on to say that the integrated AI acceleration can reduce training times by as much as 50%, which is a pretty remarkable claim. Of course, the E28 isn't aimed at the general public, least of all PC gaming. It's for mega-expensive, budget-be-damned AI workstations and servers, where the only thing that matters is raw performance. However, while gaming SSDs are becoming ever faster in terms of sequential read/write bandwidth, they're still surprisingly slow when it comes to random operations. The difference between the two is that the former involves a stream of continuous data, whereas the latter involves reading or writing data from all over the drive, in a constantly varying pattern. Random data performance is key to making any PC feel snappy and responsive, as sequential throughput is mostly only helpful for loading a game or a level. The fact that the E28 has a random performance that's up to 240% faster than the current best gaming SSD means that a some point in the near future, ordinary SSDs are going to feel much more responsive. So while the E28 is going to be the preserve of the professional AI market, its successors and siblings are going to bring all of its random goodness to the everyday world of PCs and gaming. Now that is newsworthy.
