Samsung Electronics has begun mass production of a new solid-state drive that stores and transfers data for artificial-intelligence personal computers.
The South Korean tech giant said Friday that its PM9E1 SSD can be "an optimal solution for on-device AI PCs" thanks to enhanced data-transfer speeds and power efficiency.
The new product improved power efficiency more than 50% for longer battery life, which Samsung said is ideal for on-device AI applications.
Its sequential read and write speeds are more than double those for the previous-generation product, which enables faster data transfers, the company said.
The new SSD offers various storage options, including the industry's largest 4-terabyte capacity, an optimum solution for PC users in need of high-capacity storage for large files such as AI-generated content, Samsung added.
