PetaIO, a Chinese storage solutions provider based in Nanjing, China, has unveiled its next-gen PCIe Gen6 SSDs with over 28 GB/s speeds.

PetaIO Is Working On Domestic Chinese SSDs featuring 6nm PCIe Gen6 Tech With Up To 28 GB/s Speeds

Micron recently stepped up to become the world's first storage provider to unveil next-gen PCIe Gen6 SSDs. While others are also gearing up to launch their respective Gen6 SSDs for the enterprise and AI segments, Chinese manufacturers are also ramping up their efforts to roll out Gen6 solutions.

At MemoryS 2026, PetaIO was one such manufacturer that announced its upcoming PCIe Gen6 SSD, which utilizes dedicated PCIe 6.0 and AI technologies while also being CXL 3.0 compliant. The SSDs are designed for data centers and leverage the latest controller.

As per PetaIO's official statement, their next-gen PCIe Gen6 SSDs feature the Titanium Himalaya controller, which is going to be their flagship controller based on a 6nm process node. The company dived a bit into the specs and features of this SSD, but before we get to those, you can read the full press release below:

PetaIO, the next generation of world-leading PCIe5.0 + CXL + AI, The Memory Semantic Fusion Storage technology provides future AI large-model systems with TB-scale high-bandwidth memory expansion through the CXL interface, as well as a pool of ultra-large capacity (up to 256 TB) and ultra-low-cost storage resources. For IDC and AIDC, provide important core technology support.

The new PCIe 6.0 + AI + CXL flagship controller chip "Titanium Himalaya", based on a 6nm process, is under development。 This chip not only boasts a groundbreaking 28+ GB/s sequential read bandwidth, but it is also specifically optimized for AI inference and vector retrieval, achieving exceptional random read performance of up to 50M IOPS (512B) and an ultra-low latency of 2.7us. Perfectly compatible with high-performance network ecology, as GPU HBM intelligent expansion pool efficient cache big model key data（such as KV Cache, breaking the computing power "memory wall."
