Silicon Power (SP) has announced its new flagship M.2 SSD, the XPower XS90. This drive is the company's fastest to date, built on the PCIe Gen 5 x4 interface and designed to handle demanding workloads from AI, high-end gaming, and professional content creation.
The XS90 drive's performance is attributed to a new TSMC-built 6 nm controller, paired with an LPDDR4 DRAM cache. Silicon Power is claiming sequential read speeds of up to 14,300 MB/s and sequential write speeds of up to 13,400 MB/s (10,500 MB/s on the 1 TB drive).

Interestingly, the product is being marketed with a no-heatsink design, making it compatible with a broader range of motherboards and laptops. However, given the high speeds, users will almost certainly need to provide their own cooling, such as a motherboard's integrated M.2 heatsink, to prevent thermal throttling.
The XPower XS90 will be available in 1 TB, 2 TB, and 4 TB capacities. It supports the NVMe 2.0 protocol and ships in a standard M.2 2280 form factor. Silicon Power is backing the drive with a 5-year limited warranty.
KitGuru says: Although slightly slower (at least on paper) than most recently launched flagship PCIe 5.0 SSDs, if priced correctly, it can still become an interesting solution, especially now that SSD storage prices are increasing.
