LAS VEGAS, Jan. 06, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Enmotus and Phison Electronics are jointly demonstrating Enmotus performance enhancing MiDrive SSD technology.

Key Points: 
  • LAS VEGAS, Jan. 06, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Enmotus and Phison Electronics are jointly demonstrating Enmotus performance enhancing MiDrive SSD technology.
  • Unlike current QLC implementations that utilize a portion of the QLC to mimic an SLC cache, Enmotus Machine Intelligence technology keeps your active data/games in the true SLC and stores infrequently used data on the QLC - automatically.
  • Phison worked closely with Enmotus integrating Enmotus technology with our controllers, said K.S Pua, CEO of Phison Electronics.
  • Positioning MiDrive between the niche high performance consumer SSD market and cost conscious users presents a tremendous market opportunity for Phison and Enmotus, added K.S.
