welcome to Jay's two cents exclusive insider coverage of CES 2014 archeron this year is brought to you by aqua tuning your global source for PC modding and cooling components and by sennheiser the pursuit of perfect sound and of course by generous viewers like you hey guys Jays two cents here in the a data suite at CES 2014 now earlier this year I took a look at the SX 900 SSD and a lot of people don't realize that a data is actually the manufacturer of the SSD modules that go inside these different hard drives now a data has really been revolutionary when it comes to advancing the technology of the chip manufacturing and what that means is by getting more and more information in a smaller and smaller package now what we're looking at right here is the Xu 41 this little chip this little module right here is the entire SSD this is the future of SSDs this is what allows us to get very small and thin smartphones very small laptops and tablets because I mean I don't know if you can even see how thin that chip is I mean that is what may be one millimeter at best it's 16 by 20 millimeters in size now to kind of give you a perspective of what this does the overall size of the SSD they've got an essex 900 right here basically ripped open where they have just one of those chips right here in the middle now this little bitty chip right here is actually a hundred and twenty eight gigabyte just in this tiny little chip so if you were to get an array of these inside of an SSD it allows you to make a very large capacity SSD in this very small form factor which is what we have right here the sx 930 xpg from a DA now you may notice on there it says two terabytes this is a two terabyte sada SX SX SSD now when you have expansion of SSD capacity like that you need to have a controller that's capable of that so what we're looking at right here is a little test bed they have set up that's doing a constant read/write with the same technology that is in this this actual SSD right here through sada in a pci express slot running the brand-new sandforce LSI 3700 controller which allows to use a giant capacity like this without sacrificing any speed now the pci express version obviously is going to be a bit faster than the SSD itself running through sadek aceites sort of a bottleneck and in that communication line but with direct lanes to the cpu through the pci express slot with the same technology that's in this SSD hard drive right here they're getting an eighteen hundred megabyte per second read speed eighteen hundred megabytes per second guys could you imagine the boot speeds or just how fast you can index a hard drive with that type of read speed so that is the sx 932 terabyte SSD is gonna be available up to two terabytes starting at 128 now now you guys are going to wanna know about availability and when you can buy that it's going to be sometime around the middle of this year because they're still continuing to refine the lsi 3700 sandforce controller because the worst thing you could have as a controller that's no good karups your data and you don't want that so once the controller is completely matured you can expect to see that in the market sometime middle of this year now we all know ddr4 is not that far away in fact we know that because I am holding a ddr4 20 133 megahertz CL 15 ram module right here now what's the benefit of ddr4 well you know speed wise it may not be an incredible increase in fact I'm not even sure because this is a working dim slaughtered in stick right here but we don't have a demo here to be able to actually show any of its speed but let me tell you this is a 16 gigabyte dim right here 16 gigabytes on one stick so it's going to allow you to be able to run 32 megabytes if you need to on a major rendering station or something like that without having to occupy a whole lot of slots inside of your side of your motherboard but according to the little label right here we do have 8 gigabyte and 16 gigabyte capabilities on these single dims so when it comes to memory a data has certainly got you covered with your SSDs an upcoming ddr4 that's going to be launching at some point later this year so guys has been JS two cents here in the a data suite at CES 2014 make sure you follow us on Twitter so you'll miss any of our coverage I'm sure you guys are sick of hearing that and I'm sick of saying that but anyways I will see you guys in my next video
