At this week’s Flash Memory Summit in Santa Clara, California, Toshiba Memory is showcasing the industry’s fastest-class PCIe 4.0 NVMe SSDs for enterprise applications.
The drives achieve a sequential read performance of over 6.4GB/s. The CM6 Series SSDs support dual-port PCIe Gen4 x4 lanes and are NVMe 1.4 compliant. The family of enterprise NVMe SSDs will be available in a 2.5-inch form factor with capacity points from 800GB to 30TB, and 1 or 3 drive writes per day endurance options.

From the Technology Graveyard
You just read about PCIe. Here is what it replaced:
SCI (Scalable Coherent Interface) served 1992–2000. What ultimately replaced it?
SCI (Scalable Coherent Interface) provided cache-coherent shared memory across nodes over point-to-point rings, letting a cluster act like a single large NUMA machine. Its job passed to PCIe — but the problem it solved, and the ideas it proved, live on in what replaced it. The standard rests here in the archive. One of 198 technologies here that opened a door and then held it for the next.
