Samsung begins mass production of advanced SSDs for Nvidia's Vera Rubin platform
Samsung Electronics has begun mass production of its most advanced data center storage equipment, which will be used within Nvidia's upcoming Vera Rubin platform. This enterprise-class solid-state drive product is called PM1763 and was released at the NVIDIA GTC conference earlier this year. Samsung demonstrated it at the time together with next-generation high-bandwidth memory HBM4 and low-power module SOCAMM2 as part of a comprehensive package designed for AI data centers. Samsung said in a statement on Wednesday that this storage device uses the latest V-NAND flash memory chip and a newly developed 4-nanometer controller, and its read and write speed is more than double that of the previous generation. PM1763 reduces data latency for advanced processors and AI accelerators. Samsung said that in order to maintain high-speed operation during AI training and inference, this hard drive is equipped with a liquid cooling system. According to TrendForce, Samsung held the largest share of the enterprise SSD market in the first quarter of this year, accounting for 35%. Followed by SK hynix, , Kioxia and Kioxia’s partners
