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)--Jun 19, 2025-- 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]. This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: KIOXIA CD9P Series High-Performance Data Center NVMe SSDs to Maximize GPU Utilization in AI and HPC Workloads 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): 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.
