THE XS70 1TB

Silicon Power uses a regular blister package to ship the XS70 line so from the front you can actually see the top of the drive.

The NVMe version along with contact information for Silicon Power and numerous certifications are printed at the rear.

Once again in my hands i have an M.2 2280 SSD but thanks to the thick aluminum heatsink this one looks like a tank.

A sticker on the other side of the heatsink has the serial number, barcode and product name and capacity.

Removing the top of the heatsink is not hard and since the XS70 1TB is a single side SSD that's all that's needed.

So here we see the E18 NAND flash controller by Phison, 1GB DDR4 2666MHz SDRAM by Samsung and the four 176-layer 3D TLC NAND flash modules by Micron.
