Excellent sequential performance, Strong random write performance, Good build quality and design, Installation flexibility (halfheight form factor), Good software tools (can restore drive performance and boot Windows)
Very expensive compared to multiple SATA drives and Plextor M6e, 4KB random read performance only comparable to current flagship SATA 6Gbps SSDs, 480GB capacity only – 240GB would be welcomed.
The G.Skill Phoenix Blade is a bold move by the Taiwanese company, and one that is done with the intention of reclaiming its place amongst the elite high-performance SSD vendors. Highly competitive performance and a solid design, are how G.Skill has manag...
Excellent straight-line speed, Fast at writing, Cheaper than other PCIe drives
Single capacity, Not NVMe-compatible
Modern consumer SSDs are able to saturate the SATA 6Gbps interface introduced a few years ago and now available on practically every motherboard. Advances such as SATA Express and full-bandwidth M.2 have yet to materialise en masse, leaving the door open...
Abstract: In the land of the blind, the one-eyed man is king. This is the unfortunate but temporary state of consumer SSDs that aren't the Intel 750 or Samsung SM951. Both of those drives offer cutting-edge performance, value (relative to peers), and the potential...

Abstract: It's been quite some time since our last SSD roundup and we hadn't seen much need for one until recently. SSD technology grew stale after saturating the SATA 6Gb/s bus, bringing mostly minor improvements in recent memory and making up for it with price cu...
High Quality Components, Excellent Read and Write Speeds, 1536TB (1.4TB per day) Endurance Rating, Far Faster Than SATA or M.2 Alternatives, Bootable
Green PCB
The Phoenix Blade is a wonderful drive and has the excellent finish and solid construction I've come to expect from the G.SKILL. Even the packaging has a quality feel to it. The only let down is the green PCB. While most of the motherboard, graphics card,...

Do we need to write anything here? We do? But they saw the graphs, it's obvious what the conclusion is. What? Some people just skip to this page. More fool them. Okay here goes...The G.Skill Phoenix Blade PCIe SSD is the fastest storage solution around, b...

The Phoenix Blade is a beast in performance. It's in the top two of all the client-level SSDs that we have ever tested and trades blows with Samsung's XP941 PCIe SSD (although I must say here that most of the client drives we have tested are SATA based, s...

Looking at the capacity of the G.SKILL Phoenix Blade 480GB PCIe SSD we saw total of 512GB(1GB byte = 1,000,000,000 bytes) of NAND on board and Windows reports the capacity accessible to the end user as 447 GiB (1Gib = 1,073,741,824 bytes) which is typical...
This year we'll see 10 Gbps interfaces like the M2 port take off, bringing performance close to say 700 - 800 MB/sec on a small SSD that you infect inject into your motherboard. The next step is a PCI Express based add-in card in RAID and multiple NAND F...
