SK Hynix PCB01 PCIe Gen5 AI PC SSD 1TB

The SK Hynix PCB01 is a PCIe 5.0 x4 NVMe 2.0 M.2 2280 SSD built on SK Hynix's 238-layer 4D TLC NAND flash technology, paired with a high-performance in-house controller optimized for the demanding read/write patterns characteristic of generative AI inference, large-model loading, and creative professional applications. The drive delivers sequential read speeds reaching up to 14,500 MB/s and sequential write speeds up to 13,000 MB/s, representing a significant generational leap over PCIe Gen4 predecessors and enabling near-instantaneous dataset staging for on-device AI workloads. The PCB01 is purpose-tuned for the AI PC segment, addressing the surge in local model inference tasks driven by Microsoft Copilot+ and similar platform-level AI features, where low-latency NAND access is critical to maintaining smooth inferencing pipelines without offloading to the cloud.

Ideal for

• On-device generative AI inference: staging large language model weights (7B–13B parameter range) locally for Copilot+ and similar AI PC platform features with minimal load latency
• Professional video production: real-time 8K RAW media ingest and timeline scrubbing in DaVinci Resolve and Adobe Premiere Pro leveraging sustained sequential throughput exceeding 13,000 MB/s
• 3D rendering and simulation: rapid asset streaming and scene file loading for Autodesk Maya, 3ds Max, and Blender workloads where storage bottlenecks directly extend render farm queue times
• Data science and ML development workstations: fast iteration cycles for training data preprocessing, checkpoint saving, and model serialization in PyTorch and TensorFlow local environments
• High-performance gaming and game development: eliminating shader compilation stutter and accelerating Unreal Engine 5 Nanite asset streaming on next-generation game development workstations
• Medical imaging and CAD workstations: rapid loading of multi-gigabyte DICOM datasets and complex CAD assemblies in environments demanding both throughput and sustained data integrity
