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.
