The Silicon Power UD70 is a great choice for the casual gamer or video editor looking for a fast, yet affordable, PCIe SSD that keeps its cool no matter how hard you push it. This compact, M.2 form factor drive is powered by Phison's PS5012-E12S controller and is available with up to 2TB of Micron's 96-layer QLC NAND flash. Combine this with an SLC cache, DRAM cache buffer and a PCIe Gen3 x4 NVMe 1.3 interface and you have a drive capable of delivering more than six times the performance of your average SATA SSD. In our sequential read and write tests, the 2TB version of the UD70 was able to read at speeds as high as 3,477 MB/s and write at speeds in excess of 2,970 MB/s. It also did very well in our random write tests, producing nearly 208,000 IOPS at low queue depths.
