MSI Unleashes 14 GB/s Barrier Cushing Spatium M580 Frozr Gen5 SSDs: Up To 4 TB & 14.6 GB/s

MSI has unleashed its fastest Spatium Gen5 SSD under the M580 Frozr family which features insane speeds of up to 14.6 GB/s.

Today marks the official unveiling of the MSI Spatium M580 Frozr Gen5 SSDs which were last revealed during CES 2024. The SSDs were displayed in both air and liquid-cooled variants with Liquid-cooled products coming later this year.

Well, it looks like MSI managed to squeeze out way more performance than what they had initially displayed for the storage solutions as the M580 Frozr offers up to 14.6 GB/s max read speeds, the fastest that we have seen yet in the industry. Furthermore, the drives pack up to 4 TB capacities & are outfitted with MSI's FROZR cooling solution which enables the drive to sustain its rated read & write speeds without users worrying about temperatures.

Press Release: MSI is thrilled to announce the release of its highly anticipated SSD powerhouse, the SPATIUM M580 FROZR, ushering in a new era of storage performance. With cutting-edge technology and innovative thermal solutions, this SSD is set to redefine the standards of speed and reliability in storage solutions.

The SPATIUM M580 FROZR sets a new benchmark in storage performance with its revolutionary features. Powered by the state-of-the-art PHISON E26 PCIe Gen5 controller and equipped with advanced 3D NAND flash modules boasting 232 layers, this SSD achieves mind-blowing read speeds of up to 14.6 GB/s and write speeds of up to 12.7 GB/s, up to 2 times faster transfer rates compared to current PCIe 4.0 SSDs.

This represents a significant leap in speeds, boosted by a DRAM cache buffer and a SLC Cache, providing users with lightning-fast data access and gaining valuable milliseconds in latency for gaming, content creation, and professional applications. Additionally, the M580 FROZR is fortified with LPDC ECC and E2E Data Protection, ensuring data integrity and reliability. With a high TBW (Terabytes Written) value and backed by a comprehensive 5-year warranty, users can trust in the durability and longevity of the SPATIUM M580 FROZR in 1TB, 2TB, and 4TB variants after an easy installation.

Complementing its exceptional performance, the SPATIUM M580 FROZR features a revolutionary passive tower heatsink cooler. This cooler, pre-mounted on the SSD, incorporates three heat pipes known as CORE pipes and a plethora of aluminum fins, maximizing surface area for enhanced cooling capability and airflow pass-through. By reducing operating temperatures by up to 20 degrees Celsius, this heatsink unleashes extreme performance and sustains maximum storage throughput even under heavy workloads.

MSI is providing an advanced software solution with system status monitoring and data backup, built into MSI Center. While using MSI Center, the user can see comprehensive information regarding the SSD status including drive health, used capacity, and current operating temperature.
