The T705 would simply follow on from its current T700, but offers even higher speeds. Depending on the version, read speeds are as high as 14 GB/s!
Crucial is said to be working on its T705 SSD. This new model would adopt a classic M.2 2280 format, while benefiting from a PCIe 5.0 x4 interface. The latter guarantees high data transfer rates, as confirmed by the leaked datasheet.
The SSD comes in three versions: 1TB, 2TB and 4TB. The datasheet doesn’t mention DRAM cache capacity, if present, nor endurance. We do know that the memory used here comes from Micron and is 232-layer TLC. As for performance.
We learn that several versions of the SSD will be offered. The first with a black heatsink and the second without. The third, known as the ” limited edition “, will feature a white heatsink!
1 TB :
Sequential throughput: 13.6 GB/s read – 10.2 GB/s write
Random performance: 1.4M readIOPS – 1.75M writeIOPS
2 TB :
Sequential throughput: 14.5 GB/s read – 12.7 GB/s write
Random performance: 1.55M readIOPS – 1.8M writeIOPS
4 TB :
Sequential throughput: 14.1 GB/s read – 12.4 GB/s write
Random performance: 1.5M readIOPS – 1.8M writeIOPS
