TeamGroup just announced the T-Force Cardea PCIe Gen5 SSD, one of the first PCIe 5.0 x4 storage devices made not for high-end server usage, but for desktop PCs instead. They are aimed at top-tier rigs packing the latest generation of high-end CPUs, perfect for gaming.
The company does boast 13,000 MB/s max sequential read speeds, and write speeds of over 12,000 MB/s, though. That would make it one of the fastest SSDs ever to enter the market—a perfect addition to any AMD AM5, Intel Alder Lake, or upcoming Raptor Lake build.
Those with older rigs will still be able to jam one into their machine (provided your motherboard has an NVMe 2.0 slot), though you won’t be able to make the most of the full speeds it can muster.
The T-Force Cardea PCIe Gen5 SSD stock won’t start to show up until around July–September time, unfortunately, so they’re still a way away.
