ZhiTai released the Ti600s solid state drive on August 24, 2024, offering a faster option for users upgrading their storage. This update matters because it significantly boosts random write performance over the previous Ti600 model, addressing a common bottleneck in everyday computing tasks. Buyers looking for high-speed NVMe storage now have a new generation to consider.
New drive doubles random write speed over predecessor
The Ti600s is a PCIe 4.0 drive that maintains backward compatibility with PCIe 3.0 slots, ensuring it works in older systems as well as modern ones. It utilizes YMTC Xtacking4.0 QLC NAND flash memory to achieve its high throughput rates. The drive is designed for desktops, laptops, and PlayStation 5 expansion slots, providing broad versatility for different hardware setups.
Specifications
- Sequential Read: 7400MB/s
- Sequential Write: 6900MB/s
- Random Read IOPS: 1300K
- Random Write IOPS: 1500K
- Interface: PCIe 4.0
Sequential read speeds reach 7400MB/s, while sequential write speeds hit 6900MB/s. Random read performance delivers 1300K IOPS, and random write performance reaches 1500K IOPS. These figures represent a 44% increase in random read speed and a 114% increase in random write speed compared to the previous generation Ti600.
ZhiTai offers the Ti600s in 512GB, 1TB, 2TB, and 4TB capacities, though the 512GB version is listed as pending availability. The drive comes with a five-year limited warranty, which is standard for high-end consumer SSDs. The product is now available globally as of the August 24 announcement date.
We looked at the previous Ti600 launch earlier to track the evolution of ZhiTai's storage lineup. The Ti600s continues this line with improved random write speeds, which are critical for system responsiveness. The drive is now on the market for those ready to upgrade their storage infrastructure.
