Adata XPG SX8200 Pro M.2 256GB SSD

Adata XPG SX8200 Pro M.2 256GB SSD is one of the best SSDs you can buy. This SSD is designed for gamers, PC enthusiasts, overclockers, and video content producers. The drive features speeds of up to 3500/1200 MB/s of read/write throughput and power efficiency that outclasses any other SSD available, making the SX8200 Pro the performance leader out of the gate. The black XPG heat spreader gives it more nicer look.

Packed with Micron’s 64L 3D TLC Adata SX8200 Pro is nearly identical to the SX8200 and GAMMIX S11, except this time around the SSD comes armed with the new SMI SM2262EN controller that is a significant upgrade over the previous generation SM2262. It is a version of the ADATA Gammix S11 Pro without an aluminum heat spreader, which ensures compatibility with laptops.

The new SMI SM2262EN controller brings higher performance and better efficiency thanks to an improved data path and firmware enhancements. It also supports the NVMe 1.3 specifications and comes with end-to-end data protection, a RAID Engine, and LDPC ECC to maintain data integrity over time. The drive also leverages SLC caching, which helps improve performance beyond the native TLC write performance. The new SM2262EN controller powers the SX8200 Pro up to 3.5/ 3.0 GBps of throughput in sequential read/write workloads. As per usual, performance varies based on the capacity of the drive, with write performance being slower on the smaller models. The SX8200 Pro also provides up to 390K/380K random read/write IOPS
