With the Seagate FireCuda 540 you have a free choice of cooler, but you also have to order one. The performance is very good, but it has nothing to do with absolute top transfer rates. However, it is perfectly suited as a gaming SSD.
Performance has a new name: FireCuda 540 SSD. This PCIe Gen5 SSD offers uncompromising speeds of up to 10,000 MB/s, surpassing Gen4 by 50% and being 17 times faster than SATA SSDs. The DirectStorage API ensures shorter load times in games and applications. With a total write endurance of at least 2,000 TBW, this SSD is designed for demanding continuous operation. This SSD is not for the faint of heart.
The PCIe Gen5 interface has been optimized for DirectStorage, enabling performance of up to 10,000 MB/s and 1.5 million IOPS.
Faster: Up to 50% faster data transfer than PCIe Gen4 NVMe SSDs and up to 17 times faster than SATA SSDs.
Built for durability: A TBW of up to 2,000 TB means you can overwrite up to 1 TB of data daily for five years (based on a capacity of 2 TB).
Ready to use: Plug-and-play compatibility with most PCIe Gen5 motherboards and backward compatible with PCIe Gen4.
Latest hardware: The integrated E26 controller has been tested by Seagate and delivers stunning PCIe Gen5 speeds to your PC.
Professional-level gaming and content creation: The DirectStorage API ensures shorter load times in games and applications.
