The TD5S30 series features 2.5" SATA III SSDs with maximum read/write speeds of 530 / 510 MB/s, 4 K random IOPS of 80 K / 50 K, and capacities of 400 GB, 960 GB, 1.92 TB, 3.84 TB, and 7.68 TB. The TB3S30 series also uses SATA III, this time in M.2 format, with storage capacities from 120 GB to 1.92 TB, read/write speeds of 560 / 490 MB/s, and 4 K random IOPS of 80 K / 70 K.

Intel is gearing up for a return to the high-end desktop (HEDT) workstation market with the launch of the "Granite Rapids-WS" Xeon processors. A well-known hardware leaker, @momomo_us, has provided a list of potential SKUs, detailing their L3 cache capacities and clock speeds. At the top of this preliminary list is a SKU labeled as the "698X," featuring 336 MB of L3 cache and a clock speed of 2.0 GHz across all cores. The lower clock speed combined with naming conventions suggesting it's a top end SKU tier suggests this should be a higher-core SKU, though this is yet to be confirmed. The Granite Rapids-WS design is based on Intel's XCC server compute dies, incorporating two compute tiles that deliver up to 86 cores with two I/O tiles for connectivity, such as PCIe and memory controllers. To exceed 86 cores, Intel would likely need to adopt the larger UCC die and a bigger package.

The specifics of memory support for the workstation SKU are still uncertain. However, the server XCC family supports DDR5-6400 and can achieve higher effective speeds with MR-DIMMs. For workstations, Intel is likely to opt for an eight-channel memory configuration to balance capacity and board complexity, although a 12-channel memory setup is also possible. The Granite Rapids-WS processors are derived from Intel's server XCC dies, allowing for a quicker path to higher core counts in workstations. These "Granite Rapids" server dies are modified with a new socket and package to suit the specific needs of workstations. Intel manufactures the I/O die for Granite Rapids on the Intel 7 node, while the compute tiles are produced using Intel 3.

ADATA INDUSTRIAL, a global leader in industrial-grade embedded memory, will make its first appearance at Embedded World North America 2025 (Booth #7060), showcasing the theme "Driving the Infinity of AI." This strategic expansion into the U.S. market underscores ADATA INDUSTRIAL's commitment to empowering intelligent transformation across vertical markets with high-performance PCIe Gen 5 SSDs, DDR5 DRAM modules, intelligent software, and enterprise-grade storage solutions under ADATA's enterprise brand, TRUSTA. Together, these innovations form a complete edge-to-cloud storage ecosystem for AI, automation, and other high-demand industrial applications.

Cutting-Edge Hardware & Intelligent Management Platform
To meet the extreme demands for data processing speed and system stability in next-generation AI applications, ADATA INDUSTRIAL will showcase a range of advanced products:

• Industrial-grade SSDs: Supporting the latest PCIe Gen 5 interface in U.2 form factors and leveraging advanced eTLC and BiCS8 3D NAND flash, these SSDs deliver outstanding bandwidth and endurance—ideal for high-speed data logging and real-time analytics.
• Industrial-grade DDR5 Memory Modules: Featuring robust technologies such as Clock Drivers (CKD), Power Management ICs (PMIC), and On-Die ECC, these modules ensure signal integrity and data accuracy even in complex electromagnetic environments and prolonged operation, providing a stable computing backbone for edge servers and AI accelerators.

According to listing on OpenBenchmark.org, spotted by @momomo_us on X, appears to show a "Granite Rapids-WS" engineering sample running with 86 cores and 172 threads. The entry lists peak core speeds near 4.8 GHz, which likely reflects a turboboost on a few cores rather than a sustained all-core clock. Several important fields are empty in the submission, including power figures and other platform metrics, so the entry should be viewed as an early leak rather than a finished specification. The Granite Rapids-WS is a design built from Intel's XCC server compute dies, featuring two compute tiles that deliver 86 cores and two I/O tiles that handle connectivity, including PCIe and memory controllers. To go beyond 86, Intel would probably need to move to the larger UCC die and a bigger package.

Memory support for a workstation SKU remains unclear, although the server XCC family supports DDR5-6400 and can achieve higher effective speeds with MR-DIMMs. For a workstation, Intel is likely to choose an eight-channel memory configuration to balance capacity and board complexity. Thermal envelope and base clock frequencies are not reported, leaving questions about cooling and real-world expectations unanswered. If the entry is accurate, a Granite Rapids-WS part built from a server die could give Intel a quicker path to higher core counts for workstations. Intel has recently promoted Arrow Lake as a workstation option, while professional users have been left with a choice of an older workstation platform or AMD Threadripper, as Intel has recently scaled back its involvement in HEDT. For professionals and OEMs, the decisive factors will be validated core counts, power efficiency, memory and I/O capabilities, and how well software scales on the new hardware.

Fujitsu has previewed its next-generation Monaka processor, a 144-core powerhouse for data center. Satoshi Matsuoka of the RIKEN Center for Computational Science showcased the mechanical sample on social media platform X. The Monaka processor is developed in collaboration with Broadcom and employs an innovative 3.5D eXtreme Dimension System-in-Package architecture featuring four 36-core chiplets manufactured using TSMC's N2 process. These chiplets are stacked face-to-face with SRAM tiles through hybrid copper bonding, utilizing TSMC's N5 process for the cache layer. A distinguishing feature of the Monaka design is its approach to memory architecture. Rather than incorporating HBM, Fujitsu has opted for pure cache dies below compute logic in combination with DDR5 DRAM compatibility, potentially leveraging advanced modules like MR-DIMM and MCR-DIMM.

The processor's I/O die supports cutting-edge interfaces, including DDR5 memory, PCIe 6.0, and CXL 3.0 for seamless integration with modern data center infrastructure. Security in the design is taken care of with the implementation of Armv9-A's Confidential Computing Architecture for enhanced workload isolation. Fujitsu has set ambitious goals for the Monaka processor. The company aims to achieve twice the energy efficiency of current x86 processors by 2027 while maintaining air cooling capabilities. The processor aims to do AI and HPC with the Arm SVE 2 support, which enables vector lengths up to 2048 bits. Scheduled for release during Fujitsu's fiscal year 2027 (April 2026 to March 2027), the Monaka processor is shaping up as a competitor to AMD's EPYC and Intel's Xeon processors.
