Mushkin Unveils New Pilot & Helix-L M.2 SSDs at CES 2018

LAS VEGAS, NV — Mushkin on Wednesday formally announced its lineup of M.2 SSDs that it will be offering this year. All the drives are based on various controllers from Silicon Motion as well as 3D TLC NAND memory. Mushkin’s fastest Pilot-E-series SSDs will offer peak sequential read speed of up to 3.5 GB/s and will thus be aimed at high-end desktops.

This year Mushkin will offer four lineups of SSDs in M.2 form-factor and will continue to offer three families of 2.5”/SATA drives that were introduced earlier, so it is evident that module SSDs are taking over, at least in case of Mushkin. All of the new M.2 drives will use 3D TLC NAND memory (probably made by Micron) and will be powered (mostly) by Silicon Motion’s latest controllers featuring ECC engines based on LDPC methods. Needless to say, different drives will be aimed at customers with different budgets and needs.
