Loading times may soon be a relic of the past. Apacer revealed the first PCIe Gen 5 SSDs for consumers, both oh which offer an impressive 13,000 MB/s write speed, as first reported by Wccftech.com. The Taiwanese company teased its two SSDs during Computex 2022, the Apacer AS2280F5 and the Zadak TWSG5 under its more gaming-centric brand.
We’ve actually seen PCIe Gen 5 SSDs with these ultra-fast read and write speeds before, when Samsung announced its PM1743 in December. The only catch was that they’re being specifically designed for enterprise server needs and not for consumers — though, we all figured that it was only a matter of time before these specs made their way down to consumers.
