Toshiba's new SSD SG5, chip 15 nm and even with form factor M.2 2280

When talking about SSD Toshiba should always open a parenthesis, because the situation is quite smokey. After the acquisition by the Japanese company OCZ, it is difficult to understand what the strategy of Toshiba SSD field, signposted often in contradiction with each other within a few days while referring directly to interested companies.

We start from the certainties: Toshiba always has a very direct relationship with OEMs, why can be found within the different PC SSD Toshiba known brands, almost unknown to the public, since they are rarely sold directly to the consumer market . This consideration reinforces the belief that Toshiba has acquired OCZ just to have good cards to play where it was not present, although the issue is minimized by the parties, if questioned. Sometimes even denied.


With this premise, it is hard to understand for those who are targeted by the new Toshiba SG5, although we can assume that they can be targeted to OEM (Toshiba SSD client generally indicates on the site). Let us now turn to the description of the unit: interesting is the decision to offer two form factors, 2.5 "7mm thick and M.2 2280, the latter used in several 1 and 2 in ultra-portable.

All units are equipped with SATA interface, the performance claims of 545MB / s read and 388MB / s write. The 2.5-inch models are available in denominations of 128GB, 256GB, 512GB and 1TB, while for M.2 find unna version with chips on one side only (128GB, 256GB and 512GB), while the 1TB has chips on both sides.

Max Q: Anomalous

Hello and welcome back to Max Q! Last week wasn’t the most successful for spaceflight missions. We’ll get into that a bit more below. In this issue: First up, a botched launch from Virgin Orbit… …followed by one from ABL Space Systems News from Rocket Lab, World View and more Virgin Orbit’s botched launch highlights shaky financial future After Virgin Orbit’s launch failure last Monday, during which the mission experienced an  “anomaly” that prevented the rocket from reaching orbit, I went back over the company’s financials — and things aren’t looking good. For Virgin Orbit, this year has likely been completely turned on its head. The company was aiming for three launches this year, but everything will remain grounded until the cause of the anomaly has been identified and resolved. It’s unclear how long that will take, but likely at least three months. Add this delay to Virgin’s dwindling cash reserves and you have a foundation that’s suddenly much shakier than before. ...
