The Exceria Pro is Kioxia’s first PCI-Express 4.0 SSD offering, designed for professional users, gamers, and content creators. It uses the Phison E18 controller and Kioxia’s own 112-layer BiCS5 TLC NAND flash, which enables it to achieve impressive speeds of up to 7,300 MB/s for sequential read and up to 6,400 MB/s for sequential write. The Exceria Pro also supports NVMe 1.4 protocol and has 2 GB of DDR4 DRAM cache for improved performance and stability.
The Exceria Pro comes in two capacities: 1 TB and 2 TB, with a five-year warranty and an endurance rating of 400 TBW and 800 TBW respectively. The 1 TB model costs €149 including VAT, while the 2 TB model costs €299 including VAT. Unfortunately, Kioxia SSD products are not available in the United States. However, customers in Europe and Asia can purchase the Exceria Pro from various online retailers, such as [Overclockers UK] and [Amazon Japan]. The Exceria Pro does not come with a heat spreader as standard, so users may need to install one separately if their system requires it.
