The new EXCERIA BASIC SSDs are designed for users seeking to upgrade their PCs or notebooks, offering a significant performance boost over traditional SATA or PCIe 3.0 drives without exceeding budget constraints.

High-Speed Performance Meets Everyday Affordability

The EXCERIA BASIC SSD Series leverages PCIe 4.0 (Gen4x4) technology to deliver impressive sequential read speeds of up to 7,300 MB/s and write speeds of up to 6,800 MB/s.

Available in capacities up to 2 TB and utilizing the widely adopted M.2 2280 form factor, the EXCERIA BASIC SSDs strike a balance between performance, reliability, and value. These drives are ideal for users looking to revitalize aging systems or build new PCs with modern storage capabilities, all while keeping costs in check.

Built on KIOXIA’s Legacy of Flash Memory Innovation

With decades of expertise in flash memory technology, KIOXIA continues to set industry standards for quality and innovation. The EXCERIA BASIC SSD Series benefits from this legacy, offering dependable performance backed by the company’s reputation as a global leader in storage solutions.

The EXCERIA BASIC joins KIOXIA’s established consumer SSD line-up, which also includes the EXCERIA PLUS and EXCERIA PRO series. While the EXCERIA BASIC serves as an affordable entry point to PCIe 4.0 storage, the EXCERIA PLUS series is tailored for users seeking even higher performance, with models supporting both PCIe 4.0 and PCIe 5.0 standards.

The KIOXIA EXCERIA BASIC SSD Series is scheduled for release in the fourth quarter of 2025, providing a new option for consumers looking to upgrade their storage with the latest PCIe 4.0 technology at a competitive price.
