ADATA unveils XPG MARS 980 SSD series with insane 14000MBs speeds
XPG, the gaming division of ADATA, has annnounced its newest PCIe Gen5 solid state drives. The MARS 980 series features read speeds up to 14,000MB/s and write speeds reaching 13,000MB/s. These SSDs are aimed at gamers, content creators, and professionals working with artificial intelligence or other high-performance computing needs.
The real attention-grabber here is the beautifully engineered MARS 980 STORM. It introduces the industry’s first hybrid liquid-and-air cooling setup for an SSD. That’s right, folks -- this drive has both copper heat pipes and dual fans working together to cool things down. XPG claims this design cuts temperatures by about 20 percent compared to passive heatsinks. Despite the complex cooling, everything is powered through the M.2 slot -- no extra cables required. It’s available in up to 4TB capacity, making it a top-tier option for anyone needing serious speed and stability.
