Phison has announced that it will be shipping its next-gen E26 controller for PCIe Gen 5.0 SSDs in the latter half of 2022. The SSDs will be compatible with next-gen PCIe 5.0 platforms including the Intel Alder Lake CPU series which launches in November.

PCIe 5.0 is slated to increase bandwidth compared to the previous PCIe 4.0 generation. In fact, PCIe 5.0 doubles the bandwidth speeds. And storage solutions, such as SSDs, are required to help to increase speeds as high as 7,000 megabytes per second, if not higher. Phison recognizes the need for fast storage writing speeds while also focusing on bandwidth levels.
