05.03.24
Samsung has announced that it is shipping samples of 256GB SD Express microSD memory cards, which feature high read speeds of up to 800MB/s. The company also announced the mass release of microSD memory cards with a capacity of up to 1 TB with a UHS-1 interface.
Samsung’s new SD Express microSD cards offer sequential read speeds of up to 985 MB/s and support PCIe 3.0 x1 to compete with SATA SSDs. These cards are 1.4 times faster than conventional SATA III SSDs and more than four times faster than UHS-1 memory cards.
Samsung SD Express microSD and SD microSD UHS-1 memory cards are tested for durability and come with six safety features, including water resistance, extreme temperature resistance, and more.
256GB SD Express microSD cards will be available later this year, and 1TB SD microSD UHS-1 cards are expected to be available during the third quarter of 2024.
