Two grams and 2mm thick: This major SSD maker is pushing for wider adoption of its tiny PCIe Gen4 microSSD form factor, but it will likely be dearer

• The 2mm-thick mSSD reaches 6500MB/s write speeds despite its size
• Longsys eliminates nearly 1,000 solder joints through wafer-level integration technology
• The microSSD cuts defect rates from 1,000 DPPM to only 100

Longsys has introduced what it calls the industry’s first integrated-packaging microSSD, or mSSD, using a design which merges several key components into a single compact package.

The mSSD measures just 20 x 30mm and is only 2mm thick, weighing just 2.2 grams.

Despite its size, it supports PCIe Gen4x4 performance, reaching sequential read speeds of up to 7400MB/s and write speeds of up to 6500MB/s.
