Articles about NVMe SSD performance

In a world where speed and performance are more important than ever, Addlink is stepping up to the plate with its G55 and G55H series of NVMe SSDs. These drives are engineered for power users who demand top-tier storage solutions, whether it’s for gaming, content creation, or heavy-duty computing. With blistering speeds that push PCIe Gen5x4 NVMe 2.0 technology to the max, these drives are not only fast but designed to stay cool under pressure -- especially with the G55H variant, which comes equipped with a heatsink.

The Addlink G55 and G55H SSDs are available in 1TB, 2TB, and 4TB capacities, offering flexibility based on your storage needs. Both models are built with 3D TLC NAND flash, which delivers impressive read and write speeds across the board. The 1TB version boasts read speeds up to 10,200MB/s and write speeds of 8,300MB/s, while the 2TB and 4TB options push even further, with 10,300MB/s read and 9,000MB/s write speeds. These kinds of numbers ensure lightning-fast load times, quick data transfers, and smooth performance in demanding applications.
