PCIe 6.0 x4 SSDs for PCs, which would increase peak bandwidth to up to 32 GB/s, will not be available until 2030, according to Wallace C. Kuo, chief executive of Silicon Motion, a major independent developer of SSD controllers. In fact, neither AMD nor Intel is interested in enabling this capability soon, Kuo told Tom's Hardware in an exclusive interview.
"You will not see any PCIe Gen6 [solutions] until 2030," Kuo said. "PC OEMs have very little interest in PCIe 6.0 right now — they do not even want to talk about it. AMD and Intel do not want to talk about it."
