PC gamers know that the performance of their hardware has an impact on their games. Graphics cards and CPUs have a central role in this, but storage is a crucial piece of the puzzle, affecting everything from game load times to visual quality as a slow drive can fail to deliver game assets to the GPU in an orderly fashion. Nextorage has been delivering high-performance storage tailored to suit the needs of gamers for 20 years, like its high-value NEM-PA drive for PS5 expansion, and it’s putting that experience into a new line of storage devices built to suit PC and mobile gamers.
Nextorage’s new G Series NVMe SSDs and high-performance microSDXC cards are part of this Next Gaming initiative. These parts are designed to be fast, reliable, broadly compatible, and—something that’s always a pleasure to hear—priced to offer extreme value.
PC gamers have a ton of options with the G Series Gaming SSDs. These drives range in capacity from 1,000GB to 4,000GB, and they’re built for the extreme speeds of PCIe 4.0. They’re capable of reading data at up to 7,300MB/s and writing data at up to 6,900MB/s. These kinds of speeds ensure games launch quickly, levels load fast, and large game assets are readily available for the graphics processor at a moments notice.
With 3D TLC NAND, DDR4 DRAM, and a dynamic SLC cache, the G Series Gaming SSDs are built to maintain high levels of performance even as they’re filled up. Nextorage rates the 1,000GB drive with an endurance of 700 Terabyte written. The 2,000GB drive doubles that endurance, and the 4,000GB drive bumps up even further to 3,000TBW. Nextorage backs these products with a five-year warranty.
While gaming at home may be glorious, many gamers continue to play when they’re on the go, and that can come with even steeper storage limitations. Mobile consoles like the Nintendo Switch don’t have much internal storage, and the Steam Deck is far more limited in its storage upgrade pathways than a traditional desktop PC.
To answer this problem, Nextorage has its new G Series micro SDXC cards. Like the SSDs, these are built to be fast and reliable, and they continue to offer a strong value.
You can pick up a 128GB card for just $18.99 or double that to 256GB for $29.99. Since micro SDXC cards are easy to install and remove, you can use multiple cards with your mobile gaming platforms to build out an ultra-portable library of games.
The G Series microSDXC cards meet the A2 grade to provide fast loading and meet the UHS-I spec for 100MB/s transfer speeds. The G series micro SDXC card was confirmed compatible with Nintendo Switch and Steam Deck. The cards are also built to be waterproof to IPX7, dustproof to IP5X, shock resistant to drop from 1.5 meters, tolerant of temperatures ranging from -13 to 185 degrees Fahrenheit, and X-ray and UV resistant to the ISO7816-1 specification. It’s a rough life for a mobile device, and your storage has to keep up.
Nextorage’s new hardware can work for everyday computing, and the brand has also partnered with esports team SCARZ, having top players test its products.
