The Reletech P400 is a solid-state drive in the M.2 2280 form factor, launched in 2021. It is available in capacities ranging from 256 GB to 2 TB. This page reports specifications for the 2 TB variant. With the rest of the system, the Reletech P400 interfaces using a PCI-Express 3.0 x4 connection. The SSD controller is the PS5012-E12S-32 from Phison, a DRAM cache chip is available. Reletech has installed 128-layer TLC NAND flash on the P400, the flash chips are made by YMTC. Please note that this SSD is sold in multiple variants with different NAND flash or controller, which could affect performance, the "Notes" section at the end of this page has more info. To improve write speeds, a pseudo-SLC cache is used, so bursts of incoming writes are processed more quickly. The P400 is rated for sequential read speeds of up to 3,500 MB/s and 3,200 MB/s write.
At its launch, the SSD was priced at 160 USD. The warranty length is set to five years, which is an excellent warranty period. Reletech guarantees an endurance rating of 2000 TBW, a good value.

Notes

Drive:

DRAM Cache could be 1GB

Controller:

2 main cores using Cortex-R5 clocked at 667 MHz with CoXProcessor technology (one additional dual-core) Cortex-R5 clocked at a lower clock for better efficience. The difference between this revision and the E12 revision is that this has a nichel IHS to improve the temperature, a smaller size, smaller node (12nm TSMC FinFET) and this works with less DRAM capacity.

NAND Die:

Read Time (tR): Maximum is 50 µs, typical is lower
Typical Program Time (tPROG): 620 µs
Maximum Program Time (tPROG): Maximum is 910 µs
Block Erase Time (tBERS): Maximum is 20 ms, typical is lower
Array Eficiency of over 92%
YMTC 128L Xtacking 2.0 cell architecture consists of two decks connected through deck-interface buffer layer which is the same process with KIOXIA 112L BiCS 3D NAND structure. Cell size, CSL pitch, and 9-hole VC layouts keep the same design and dimension (horizontal/vertical WL and BL pitches) with previous 64L Xtacking 1.0 cell. Total number of gates is 141 (141T) including selectors and dummy WLs for the TLC operation.
This layout has a 1x 4 Plane layout, each one lineup side by side
