The drive is already feeding NVIDIA's next-gen Vera Rubin AI servers, which require ultra-fast data access to handle the ever-growing demands of AI training and inference, which at this rate seems to be endless. According to Samsung, the PM1763 offers up to 28.4 GB/s sequential read performance, already making it one of the fastest SSDs aimed at data centers.

This speed is critical for the expansive nature of AI infrastructure, particularly where latency can slow learning models and affect real-time inference. Samsung's press release highlights how important it is for storage to continue advancing, and according to the company, the PM1763 will use its 9th-generation V-NAND and new 4-nanometer controller.

As the PM1763 rolls out, it will be closely watched by cloud providers and data centers looking to future-proof their infrastructure, and, given the relentless demand from AI companies, it wouldn't be surprising if it sells out almost immediately. And if it does sell out, it will only add to Samsung's expansive profit margins, which reports state exceed Samsung's entire profit over 40 years in just 2026.
