Samsung’s UFS 2.0 based memory solutions, such as those seen on recent Galaxy flagships, do what we expect storage solutions to do. They are fast and reliable. The extra speed also comes in handy when we do what we do best — that is, flashing several ROMs and backing up or restoring our data from a microSD card. This means that you can simply put whatever amount of music and media you want in a pinch.
Samsung’s embedded storage solutions really worked, and Samsung now wishes to share it with the rest of the world. Samsung Electronics has unveiled removable memory cards based on Universal Flash Storage 1.0 standard. The memory cards are available in a range of storage capacities, including 32, 64, 128 and 256 GB of storage.
These UFS cards bring the focus squarely on performance as they are focused on being part of devices with the need for (storage) speed such as high-res 3D gaming, and high-res movie playback. The claims made for these UFS cards include sequential read speeds of upto 530 MB/s, which is similar to the current crop of widely used SATA SSDs and five times faster than the typical 95 MBs/s sequential read of UHS-1 microSD cards. Sequential write speeds are claimed at 170 MB/s, almost double that of top microSD cards.
Pricing and availability of these UFS cards have not been mentioned in the press release
