The CFD Gaming PG5NFZ is a solid-state drive in the M.2 2280 form factor, launched on October 14th, 2022. It is available in capacities ranging from 1 TB to 4 TB. This page reports specifications for the 1 TB variant. With the rest of the system, the CFD Gaming PG5NFZ interfaces using a PCI-Express 5.0 x4 connection. The SSD controller is the PS5026-E26 from Phison, a DRAM cache chip is available. CFD Gaming has installed 232-layer TLC NAND flash on the PG5NFZ, the flash chips are made by Micron. To improve write speeds, a pseudo-SLC cache is used, so bursts of incoming writes are processed more quickly. Thanks to support for the fast PCI-Express 5.0 interface, performance is excellent. The PG5NFZ is rated for sequential read speeds of up to 9,500 MB/s and 8,500 MB/s write; random IOPS reach up to 1300K for reads and 1100K for writes.
The SSD's price at launch is unknown. The warranty length is set to three years, which is above average, but shorter than the five years offered by many other vendors. The TBW rating for the CFD Gaming PG5NFZ 1 TB is unknown, too.
