Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 82247, member: 636"] Micron finally remembered that handheld gamers exist and dropped a tiny drive with massive storage. The company introduced the 3610 NVMe SSD utilizing Gen5 G9 QLC architecture. This unit fits 4TB onto a microscopic single-sided M.2 2230 stick. Speeds look decent since reads hit 11,000 MB/s and writes reach 9,300 MB/s. Designers went DRAM-less to save space and power using host memory buffers. Efficiency apparently jumped forty-three percent versus older Gen4 TLC hardware. That statistic implies better battery life for thin laptops. It supposedly loads heavy AI models in less than three seconds. Random read operations clock 1.5 million IOPS. Host-controlled thermal management lets builders tweak heat limits for fanless builds. Security updates include data object exchange. Select partners have samples ranging from 1TB to 4TB. [/QUOTE]
