Kioxia Launches Exceria Pro 2TB SSD

Kioxia has tended to focus on the affordable end of the storage market and hasn't had a speedy PCIe 4.0 offering though, at least not until now. With the Kioxia Exceria Pro SSD, this finally changes. It is based on the famous Phison E18 controller we can see on the vast majority of today's high-end PCI-Express 4.0 SSDs. While most of these drives use either 96-layer or 176-layer TLC Flash from Micron, Kioxia is using their own 112-layer BiCS5 TLC NAND Flash. The Kioxia Exceria Pro 2TB SSD also features a 2GB DDR4 RAM cache.

The Kioxia Exceria Pro SSD comes in capacities of 1 TB and 2 TB, and endurance for these models is set to 400 TBW and 800 TBW respectively. The headline figures for the Exceria Pro SSD are the sequential reads and writes of 7,300MB/s and 6,400MB/s, which means it's competitive with the very fastest drives around.

Kioxia doesn't include a heatsink with their drive; the sticker is just plastic. Another problem with the Kioxia Exceria Pro is that the wonderfully titled SSD Utility Management Software does not support Windows 11. That is surprising as this is 2022 and Windows 11 is not exactly new anymore. As it is, running the utility provides very limited functionality, and there is no option for updating the drive's firmware directly. Besides, there is no hardware encryption.

Overall, the Kioxia Exceria Pro 2TB NVMe SSDs are generally a reasonable offering that provides a sufficient lifespan for most users. Nevertheless, they can fall victim to logical and physical SSD failures that result in critical user files inaccessibility. If that happens, the owners of the Kioxia Exceria Pro 2TB NVMe SSDs will need to contact a professional data recovery services provider to get their irreplaceable data back. ACE Data Recovery engineers can successfully recover data from hard drives and other types of storage media, including NVMe SSDs. ACEs are ready to help the Kioxia Exceria Pro 2TB NVMe SSD owners with their data recovery needs.

"Would not hesitate to recommend this company to anyone else."

ACE Data Recovery recovered all of my data, even though the drive was badly damaged. Throughout the entire process, Don was extremely professional and helpful. He also did a great job of keeping me up to date on where we stood in the recovery process. I will definitely use this company again.

"They have an amazing friendly staff"

If you find yourself in a situation like my wife where her hard drive decided to take a dump and threaten to leave her with the loss of precious files, then I highly recommend you look up ACE Data Recovery.
These guys where straight and transparent about expectations and certainly did not take advantage of our situation and offered reasonable recovery rates for the work they were going to employ. Their communication throughout the whole process was fantastic with weekly updates on the progress of the recovery. Another great feature offered was the ability to break the payment into monthly payments while they worked on our drive. They have an amazing friendly staff Don, Alevtina and Diana, to name a few that certainly makes the difference and are deserving of a 5 star Rating
