Seagate FireCuda 530
NVME · 2TB · Released June 23, 2021
Phison's E18 controller paired with TLC NAND and a DRAM cache pushes the FireCuda 530 to 7300/6900 MB/s sequential speeds and 1 million random IOPS in each direction, at the high end of PCIe 4.0 performance. Its 2550TB TBW rating is unusually high for a consumer NVMe drive, aiming at gamers building high-end rigs and creators handling large video or asset libraries who write heavily and often. The 5-year warranty matches the segment standard, but the endurance figure is what sets this drive apart from typical Gen4 competitors.
