Samsung announced that it has started mass production of the first PCIe 6.0 SSD model reaching 28.4 GB/s for NVIDIA Vera Rubin artificial intelligence servers.
Samsung Electronics announced that it has officially started mass production of the new PM1763 PCIe 6.0 SSD model, developed specifically for artificial intelligence and high-performance computing (HPC) servers. Designed to support new generation artificial intelligence platforms such as NVIDIA’s Vera Rubin, this storage unit aims to create a revolution in data centers by reaching record sequential read speeds of 28.4 GB / s.
Equipped with Samsung’s 9th generation V-NAND technology and 4 nanometer advanced controller architecture, this new generation SSD aims to eliminate data bottlenecks encountered in artificial intelligence training processes. With this step, the company plans to reinforce its leadership in the global data center infrastructure market.
Artificial Intelligence Infrastructures Need Next Generation Storage
While the volume of artificial intelligence models is growing day by day, the data transfer speeds required for training large language models (LLM) are also reaching critical importance.
To meet this requirement, Samsung’s PM1763 model offers twice the performance compared to the previous generation PM1753 SSDs. The 16TB capacity version minimizes the transfer time of information between processors and accelerators with 28,400 MB/s sequential read and 21,900 MB/s sequential write speeds.
This technological leap allows a large 40 gigabyte information model to be transferred in just 1.4 seconds.
Liquid Cooling Technology Supports Performance
In high-intensity computing missions, heating poses a major obstacle in terms of hardware life and performance continuity. To overcome these challenges, the PM1763 has been made fully compatible with direct-to-chip (D2C) liquid cooling technology.
In this way, stable operation of the system is ensured even under intense workloads. The 4nm controller developed by Samsung not only increases speed, but also significantly reduces power consumption, thus reducing the total cost of ownership.
Liquid cooling supplement takes the efficiency standards of information centers to a new dimension.
Setting New Standards for Data Center Operations
The high efficiency offered by the PM1763 is not limited to speed alone. Offering 1.8 times more power efficiency than previous generation products thanks to its advanced power management features, this SSD helps data centers reduce their carbon footprint and electricity costs.
This hardware, especially optimized for high-performance systems such as NVIDIA Vera Rubin, forms the infrastructure required for the “agentic AI” factories of the future.
This strategic move by Samsung reveals how central storage technologies are in the age of artificial intelligence.
