Unlike some high-end Gen4 controllers that require massive heatsinks to avoid thermal throttling, the 1602 runs remarkably cool. This makes it the premier choice for laptops and the PlayStation 5.
) is a breakthrough solid-state drive (SSD) controller that shattered the stereotype that DRAM-less storage is inherently slow . Developed by Maxio Technology, this 4-channel, DRAM-less PCIe Gen 4x4 controller has quietly taken over the budget-to-mid-range storage market. It delivers high-end sequential read speeds up to , placing it on par with premium flagship drives while keeping manufacturing costs incredibly low.
avoids the need for a physical DRAM chip on the drive itself. This approach drastically reduces manufacturing costs, lowers power consumption, and decreases heat generation without sacrificing top-tier read speeds. Core Specifications at a Glance PCIe Gen4 x4 (NVMe 1.4/2.0) Channels: 4-channel architecture Max Sequential Read: Up to 7400 MB/s Max Sequential Write: Up to 6500 MB/s maxio 1602 full

The controller integrates Maxio’s proprietary Agile Error Correction Code engine. This hardware-level safety net provides 4K LDPC (Low-Density Parity-Check) decoding, which significantly extends the natural lifespan of the underlying flash memory.
