Lexar this week introduced two new SSD options with very different usability. The Professional NM1090 offers high speeds via PCIe 5.0, while the Armor 700 works via USB, bringing portability and durability.

The Lexar NM1090 comes with a robust heat sink and even includes a small fan with RGB lights. Via the PCIe 5.0 interface, the manufacturer promises read speeds of up to 12,000MB/s and write speeds of up to 11,000MB/s. It has 2TB of capacity and the SSD supports Microsoft’s DirectStorage.

Moving on to the Armor 700, we have a portable SSD that connects via USB 3.2 Gen 2×2. It comes in 1TB, 2TB, and 4TB storage options, and Lexar promises speeds of up to 2,000MB/s for both reading and writing. Plus, its casing is built for durability, with an IP66 water and dust protection rating and drop resistance of up to 3 meters. However, the manufacturer’s warranty does not cover damage caused by water, dust, or drops.

“These two drives offer our customers great performance along with the features that are important to them – whether that’s top-notch speeds or rugged durability to handle life on the go,” said Joey Lopez, the company’s chief marketing officer.

Pricing and availability of Lexar’s new SSDs

The manufacturer has not yet released official prices for its new products here in Brazil, but they are already on sale in other markets. Thus, the Professional NM1090 can be found on Amazon Brazil as an “international purchase”. It appears for R$3,000 in the store.

The Armor 700 is not listed on the website here in Brazil. The 2TB model on Amazon in the US costs US$247.65, which is approximately R$1,345 in direct conversion. Obviously, there will be extra import costs for those who are interested.
