The MX-KATANA also supports the so-called DuraClass and DuraWrite technologies. The DuraClass technology provides best-in-class endurance, performance and low power consumption while the DuraWrite technology optimizes writes to the flash memory over conventional controllers increasing the overall endurance and reliability of the complete SSD module.

The MX-KATANA comes with a 2-year warranty and is available in capacities that range from 240 GB to 480 GB but unfortunately pricing is unknown.
