There are various components to a personal computer that can affect how much you enjoy playing the game. Not only your processor clock speed, the number of cores, and your GPU, but the storage medium. Obviously, the storage medium is where game data is stored and will read and run when the game starts.
On this basis, MSI is releasing a new SSD storage which is claimed to be designed for gamers. This product was announced at the CES 2021 event with specifications of read speeds of up to 7,000MB / s and write speeds of 6,900MB / s. This NVMe SSD is based on PCIe 4.0 using TLC flash memory and a heat sink (cooler) to keep the drive temperature when it is under high load (
load ).
Storage media has become increasingly crucial lately, since the size of the latest games can reach tens of gigabytes (GB). There is no further word when this drive will be released for the general market and the price offered. However, since SSD prices are still relatively high compared to conventional HDDs, don't expect this item to be cheap. Moreover, MSI also plans to offer capacities up to 4TB in size.
