According to KIOXIA, the new EXCERIA G3 SSD lineup will hit the sweet spot by combining performance without a premium price tag. The KIOXIA G3 SSD series will be available in standard M.2 2280 form-factor with PCIe 5.0 (Gen5x4) interface, and capacities of up to 2TB. The sequential performance peaks at 10,000MB/s for read and 9,600MB/s for write, with random performance of up to 1.6M read and 1.45M write IOPS.

"The EXCERIA G3 is a testament to our commitment to innovation and accessibility," said Paul Rowan, Vice President and Chief Marketing Officer at KIOXIA Europe. "We are leveraging our leadership in flash memory technology to break down the cost barrier to PCIe 5.0. The EXCERIA G3 provides mainstream users with a compelling, high-speed upgrade path from older SATA, PCIe 3.0, or even entry-level PCIe 4.0 drives."

KIOXIA's new EXCERIA G3 SSD lineup will be available in Q4 2025.
