Kioxia unveils NVMe™ SSD Form Factor for Cloud and enterprise data centers

KUALA LUMPUR, June 30 -- Kioxia Corporation has developed and started shipment of engineering samples of next generation Enterprise & Datacenter SSD Form Factor (EDSFF) E3.S, standardised by the SNIA SFF TA Technical Work Group.

E3.S is a new form factor standard for NVMe™ SSDs in Cloud and enterprise data centers, especially targeting PCIe® 5.0 and beyond, according to a statement.

The E3.S will contribute to the design and development of next generation systems, such as cloud, hyper-converged and general-purpose servers and All Flash Array systems in cloud and enterprise data centers.

The E3.S specification allows for size, power and capacity options, all with a common connector. Designed for future PCIe generations that offer higher power budgets, EDSFF E3.S delivers improved performance, cooling and flexibility over other form factors.

EDSFF E3.S benefits include higher density of flash storage for more efficient use of power, storage footprint and system rack deployments; supports PCIe 5.0 and beyond through improved signal integrity; and, better cooling and thermal characteristics.
