KIOXIA has sent us one sample of their XG6-P SSD series, which is mainly used in the OEM market. The P at the end of the product naming is added only with the 2TB model, the rest of capacities carrying the XG6 naming. The XG6 series of products comes with Toshiba’s 96L BiCS4 3D TLC NAND packages and a Toshiba-made controller with 8 channels.

Since we are dealing with an OEM product, there is no retail packaging; the drive has arrived as bulk and on the frontal area of the PCB we did note a large sticker, housing the product code name, firmware code name, the manufacturing date, the power rating and more!

On the back side we did not spot any additional components, making this SKU single-sided:

The SSD comes with a DRAM IC for caching purposes, a central Toshiba controller but also two NAND packages (1TB capacity each):

The TC58NCP090GSD 8-channel controller can be found nearby. It is communicating with the host computer over a PCIe 3.1a x4 interface with the NVMe 1.3a protocol:

The two TH58LJT3X24BAEG 96L BiCS4 3D TLC NAND packages are next:
