As many of you know, Phison is a well accomplished SSD controller manufacturer. Over the years they have designed some very competitive turnkey solutions for those who don’t have the means to do it themselves, or, helped those who can save some money by simply buying their end product rather than develop their own.

But, as times are moving, Phison …

The PNY CS2030 M.2 NVMe SSD comes out of the blue for us. The day it was released, we were more surprised than anyone. Not a whisper in the world about it had crossed our ears like it normally would.
