ADATA is a company quite well known for their computer storage offerings, and at the recent COMPUTEX Taipei event, they introduced a new SSD storage that's different from the rest.
Named ADATA NeonStorm, it is a PCIe 5.0 SSD storage that has a unique design where it combines several different types of cooling systems that allow this storage to come with a data transmission rate as fast as 14GB/s.
At the ADATA stand, the brand has shown a breakdown of the cooling system used, including the external frame with the cooling liquid contained in it, the aluminum tube that absorbs heat from the heat spreader and the aluminum tray that absorbs heat from the SSD components.
The uniqueness of this ADATA liquid cooling system comes through the heat flow from the SSD components to its built-in cooling system, where this heat will be absorbed by the cooling liquid that covers the entire storage, which will then be blown out by the built-in fan.
ADATA says that this cooling system can cool the storage at a temperature 20 percent lower than other PCIe 5.0 SSD storage, and this allows it to maintain fast data transfer rates at all times.
Apart from this complicated cooling system, this SSD also uses an ADATA Legend 970 Gen5 SSD with a brand new NVMe 2.0 SSD controller from Silicon Motion which allows this SSD to come with a data reading speed of 14GB/s and a data transmission rate of 12GB/s.
What's more interesting is that this new SSD controller can also accommodate up to 8TB of data storage in one M.2 SSD storage, twice the capacity of the existing M.2 2280 SSD storage. One drawback that ADATA says is that the cooling fan used is noisy, and this is a particular issue for those who want to build a quiet high-performance computer.
The ADATA NeonStorm storage won't launch for a few more months, possibly until the end of the year, and the storage options and price tag of these components are not yet known.
