ADATA Launches World’s First SD 8.0 Express Card with Speeds Up To 1,600MB/s, 12 Times Faster Than Previous Memory Cards

Revolutionizing Storage: ADATA Unveils the Lightning-Fast SD 8.0 Express Card

In the realm of data storage, solid-state drives (SSDs) have garnered significant attention for their remarkable speed capabilities. However, unlike SD cards, SSDs are not universally compatible with all devices. A common frustration among users of SD cards has been recurring storage bottlenecks. Fortunately, ADATA has stepped up to tackle these challenges with the introduction of the new SD 8.0 Express card, boasting impressive read speeds of up to 1, 600MB/s. This advancement promises to enhance performance across a range of devices, making it an appealing choice for tech enthusiasts.

Current Offering: 512GB SD 8.0 Express Card with Potential for Future Expansion

At launch, ADATA’s SD 8.0 Express card will be available exclusively in a 512GB capacity. The company plans to expand its offerings as consumer demand and the market grow. By utilizing the PCIe NVMe Gen 3 interface, this memory card achieves remarkable performance with write speeds hitting 1, 200MB/s. While these figures may not outpace modern SSDs, they surpass traditional SATA III drives and standard portable SSDs in data transfer speed.

“ADATA Technology is currently the first company to launch SD 8.0 Express specification memory card in the market, leading the industry in technology. The new Premier Extreme SD 8.0 Express memory card is equipped with PCIe Gen3 x2 interface and NVMe transfer protocol, with maximum read/write speeds up to 1, 600 / 1, 200 MB/s, performance. It is 2 times faster than SD EXPRESS 7.0, 12 times faster than UHS-I SD memory cards, 4 times faster than UHS-II, and even surpassing commercially available external SSDs, completely rewriting the speed bottleneck of traditional memory cards.

The memory card also supports U3, V30 video speed class, and comes with 512GB large capacity, easily handling 4K video recording, RAW image processing, or multitasking. SD Express 8.0 supports multi-device simultaneous access, further enhancing data integration efficiency. The product also has built-in LDPC ECC automatic error correction technology and has passed multiple rigorous tests such as waterproof, shockproof, anti-static, and high and low temperature resistance, providing comprehensive protection for data security.”

While specific pricing details for the SD 8.0 Express card remain undisclosed, it is reasonable to anticipate that the combination of speed and storage capacity will command a premium. For now, customers can expect only this single 512GB model, but ADATA’s commitment to enhancing its lineup indicates that larger storage options may be on the horizon. For those with compatible laptops or devices, incorporating ADATA’s advanced memory card could represent a significant storage upgrade in the near future.
