Kioxia Broadens 8th Generation BiCS FLASH™ SSD Portfolio with High-Performance Data Center NVMe™ SSDs to Maximize GPU Utilization in AI and HPC (High-performance computing) Workloads
TOKYO--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Kioxia Corporation, a world leader in memory solutions, today announced the prototype development and demonstration of its new KIOXIA CD9P Series PCIe® 5.0 NVMe™ SSDs. These next-generation drives are the latest SSDs built with Kioxia's 8th generation BiCS FLASH™ TLC-based 3D flash memory. 8th generation BiCS FLASH™ features CBA (CMOS directly Bonded to Array) technology, a breakthrough architecture that significantly boosts power efficiency, performance, and storage density [1], while doubling the capacity available per SSD compared with the previous generation model [2]. As GPU-accelerated AI servers drive up the demands on storage infrastructure, maintaining high throughput, low latency, and consistent performance is critical -- including keeping valuable GPUs highly utilized. The KIOXIA CD9P Series is purpose-built for these next-generation environments, delivering the speed and responsiveness required by AI, machine learning and HPC (high-performance computing) workloads to ensure GPUs stay fed with data and operating at maximum efficiency. The CD9P Series leverages Kioxia's most advanced 3D flash memory to date, featuring a CBA-based architecture that reduces heat generation, enhances thermal management, and delivers greater overall value through improved performance and power metrics and total cost of ownership. KIOXIA CD9P Series drives deliver 4-corner performance improvements of up to approximately 125% in random write, 30% in random read, 20% sequential read, and 25% in sequential write speeds compared to the previous generation [2]. Furthermore, performance per watt of power consumption has improved by approximately 60% in sequential read, 45% in sequential write, 55% in random read, and 100% (2x) in random write [2]. (Applies to the 15.36 terabyte (TB) model) KIOXIA CD9P Series SSD highlights include (preliminary and subject to change): PCIe ® 5.0, NVMe™ 2.0, NVMe-MI™ 1.2c compliant Open Compute Project Datacenter NVMe™ SSD specification v2.5 support (Not all requirements) Form factors: 2.5-inch 15 mm thickness, EDSFF E3.S Read-intensive (1 DWPD) and mixed-use (3 DWPD) endurances Sequential performance (128 KiB/QD32) - 14.8 GB/s Read and 7 GB/s Write Random performance (4KiB) - 2,600 KIOPS (QD512) Read and 750 KIOPS (QD32) Write 2.5-inch capacities up to 61.44 TB and E3.S capacities up to 30.72 TB CNSA 2.0 algorithm support [3] (Prepared for the threat posed by quantum computers) KIOXIA CD9P Series SSDs are now sampling to select customers and will be showcased at HPE Discover 2025, taking place June 23-26 in Las Vegas. Notes [1] Compared to the 6th generation BiCS FLASH™ [2] Compared to the KIOXIA CD8P Series [3] The KIOXIA CD9P Series supports Leighton-Micali Signature (LMS) algorithm acknowledged by CNSA 2.0 [4] as a digital signature algorithm to prevent firmware tampering in preparation for threats to conventional cryptographic algorithms posed by quantum computers. Advanced Encryption Standard (AES-256) with a key length of 256 bits, which is the data encryption algorithm used in CD9P, is also acknowledged by CNSA 2.0. [4] CNSA2.0: Commercial National Security Algorithm Suite 2.0 *2.5-inch indicates the form factor of the SSD and not its physical size. *Read and write speed may vary depending on various factors such as host devices, software (drivers, OS etc.) and read/write conditions. *Performance is preliminary and subject to change without notice. *Definition of capacity: Kioxia Corporation defines a kilobyte (KB) as 1,000 bytes, a megabyte (MB) as 1,000,000 bytes, a gigabyte (GB) as 1,000,000,000 bytes, a terabyte (TB) as 1,000,000,000,000 bytes, and a kibibyte (KiB) is 1,024 bytes. A computer operating system, however, reports storage capacity using powers of 2 for the definition of 1GB = 2^30 bytes = 1,073,741,824 bytes and 1TB = 2^40 bytes = 1,099,511,627,776 bytes and therefore shows less storage capacity. Available storage capacity (including examples of various media files) will vary based on file size, formatting, settings, software and operating system, and/or pre-installed software applications, or media content. Actual formatted capacity may vary. *A kibibyte (KiB) means 2^10, or 1,024 bytes. *IOPS: Input Output Per Second (or the number of I/O operations per second) *NVMe and NVMe-MI are registered or unregistered trademarks of NVM Express, Inc. in the United States and other countries. *PCIe is a registered trademark of PCI-SIG. *HPE is a trademark of Hewlett Packard Enterprise Company and/or its affiliates. *Other company names, product names and service names may be trademarks of third-party companies. About Kioxia Kioxia is a world leader in memory solutions, dedicated to the development, production and sale of flash memory and solid-state drives (SSDs). In April 2017, its predecessor Toshiba Memory was spun off from Toshiba Corporation, the company that invented NAND flash memory in 1987. Kioxia is committed to uplifting the world with 'memory' by offering products, services and systems that create choice for customers and memory-based value for society. Kioxia's innovative 3D flash memory technology, BiCS FLASH™, is shaping the future of storage in high-density applications, including advanced smartphones, PCs, automotive systems, data centers and generative AI systems.

MSCI Announces the Results of the MSCI 2025 Global Market Accessibility Review
NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--MSCI Inc. (NYSE: MSCI), a leading provider of critical decision support tools and services for the global investment community, announced today the results of the MSCI 2025 Global Market Accessibility Review. The detailed report, covering market accessibility assessments for 86 markets, has been made available on Bulgaria is not included in the MSCI 2025 Global Market Accessibility Review report released today. Information for this market will be made available on June 24, 2025, concurrent with the MSCI 2025 Annual Market Classification Review announcement. As a reminder, Bulgaria is under review for potential reclassification from Standalone Market status to Frontier Market status. Key takeaways: There were more improvements than deteriorations in market accessibility ratings. A significant portion of those improvements are attributed to developments in Market Infrastructure across Emerging and Frontier Markets. The MSCI Global Market Accessibility Review aims to assess and track the evolution of accessibility in individual markets, and to inform market authorities about areas that global institutional investors perceive as not meeting international standards and would welcome improvements. Consistent with prior years, the MSCI 2025 Global Market Accessibility Review provides a detailed assessment of market accessibility for each equity market included in the MSCI Indexes and evaluates the following five market accessibility criteria: Openness to foreign ownership Ease of capital inflows/outflows Efficiency of the operational framework Availability of investment instruments Stability of the institutional framework These five criteria reflect areas that international institutional investors generally place strong emphasis on when evaluating investment accessibility of a market, including equal treatment of investors, free flow of capital, cost of investment, unrestrictive use of stock market data, and market-specific risk. MSCI uses 18 distinct accessibility measures to assess these five criteria, described in detail in the MSCI 2025 Global Market Accessibility Review report. Market accessibility, along with economic development and size and liquidity, determine classification of markets into Developed, Emerging, Frontier and Standalone Markets. The classification of markets is a key input in the process of index construction as it determines the composition of the investment opportunity sets to be represented. The results of the MSCI 2025 Annual Market Classification Review will be announced on June 24, 2025. More information on the MSCI Market Classification Framework is available at -Ends- About MSCI MSCI is a leading provider of critical decision support tools and services for the global investment community.
