Redefining PCIe Gen4 QLC SSD

As YMTC’s second-generation PCIe 4.0 QLC consumer SSD, the PC42Q leverages 3,600 MT/s NAND interface speed to achieve TLC-class performance. With up to 7,000 MB/s sequential read and 6,500 MB/s sequential write, it enables faster system response and smoother experiences in gaming, productivity, and video editing.


Industry-Leading Power Efficiency

PC42Q leads on performance-per-watt as 1.938 MB/s per mW with active power as low as 4 W and PS4 deep sleep down to 2 mW. Lower thermals can reduce system cooling cost, extend battery life, and help minimize fan noise—enhancing the overall user experience.


Enhanced Reliability

Engineered for longevity, PC42Q features MTBF of 2.0 million hours and TLC-class end-of-life data retention (1 year @ 30°C). Robust data integrity helps safeguard user data across the drive’s lifecycle.


Advanced Technology, Assured Supply

Built on YMTC’s Xtacking® 4.0 architecture and the latest X4-6080 QLC 3D NAND, PC42Q combines next-gen performance leadership with stable, continuous supply.
