Elevate Your Play

NEM-PAB Series, featuring the latest generation PCIe® 4.0 controller and 3D TLC NAND flash.
This advanced SSD achieves a remarkable balance of high-speed performance and energy efficiency, elevating gaming experiences to a higher level.

ULTRA-FAST
PCIe®4.0

Featuring the latest 4-channel controller compatible with PCIe® 4.0/NVMe 1.4 and paired with 3D TLC NAND memory, our SSD achieves enhanced sequential speeds and random access performance.
It offers rapid access and quick responsiveness, ideal for demanding tasks and applications that require rapid performance.

Enhanced Stability

The power-saving benefits of DRAM-less design reduce power consumption and control temperature rise, thereby enhancing the stability of the SSD.
This leads to shorter loading times and seamless play experience, providing a more comfortable and smooth gaming environment.

OPTIMIZED COOLING STRUCTURE

High performance and stability lasts thanks to the optimized heat dissipation design ― NEM-PAB Series comes with an aluminum heatsink* coated with a highly thermally radioactive black alumite, which suppresses thermal throttling (speed limit activation to prevent thermal runaway.)

*The original heatsink cannot be disassembled. When you mount this product on a desktop computer, make sure there is enough space for this M.2 SSD to be installed. This drive cannot be used for laptop computers.

EXPAND YOUR PlayStation®5 STORAGE

Compatible with PS5™ confirmed by Nextorage*

NEM-PA series with built-in heatsink fits into the expansion slot of PS5 console or PS5 Digital Edition console. Increasing the storage capacity of PS5 allows you to download, copy, and start PS5 and PS4™ games from the M.2 SSD storage.

ADVANCED TECHNOLOGY FOR LONGER LIFETIMES

Dynamic SLC

Dynamic SLC caching technology accelerates frequently accessed data by extending the life of TLC NAND.

Wear Leveling

By evenly distributing write and erase operations across the entire memory block, it prevents overuse of specific areas. Our proprietary advanced wear leveling algorithm efficiently maximizes the lifespan of the NAND flash.

Error correction algorithm (LDPC)

The SSD controller has a high precision error correction algorithm “LDPC (Low Density Parity Check)”, which has advanced detection and correction technology for random bit errors that occur during reading and protects the data from corruption.

RELIABLE STORAGE

Perfectly tested

This product is write/read tested at high temperatures specified by Nextorage before shipment, In addition to functional tests.

5-Year limited warranty

Warranty and product support valid for 5 years from the original date of purchase or before writing the maximum TBW (Total Bytes Written)
