Starting with the flagship Maxio MAP1802, we are looking at the standard NVMe 2.0 specs. The die itself measures 9x13mm in an IHS-less design. The controller includes a 4-channel with 8 CE's and supports up to 4800 MT/s NAND Flash support. The fastest we have seen on the market yet, using the Phison E26 controller, is rated at around 3000 MT/s. The controller supports speeds of up to 14,800 MB/s Read (14.8 GB/s) and 14,400 MB/s Write (14.4 GB/s). It also supports 3400K IOPS Read and 3500K IOPS Write. Maximum supported capacities are up to 8 TB.
