Micron and Astera Labs joined forces at DesignCon 2025 to demonstrate the world’s first PCIe 6.0 SSDs using the Astera Scorpio PCIe 6.0 network switching device. Combined with two Micron PCIe 6.0 SSDs and an Nvidia H100 GPU, the device achieved sequential read speeds of more than 27GB/s on each drive — twice the speed of the fastest PCIe 5.0 drives today.
