Samsung is currently the largest SSD maker in the world, and after launching the impressive Portable SSD T3 last year, the company is geared up to launch the successor sometime next month. According to an exclusive report from The Korea Herald, Samsung will start the production of its next-generation portable SSD solution next week.

Dubbed Samsung Portable SSD T5, the storage solution is reportedly based on the company's fourth-generation 64-layer V NAND flash memory. The production of this storage device is expected to start next week, and it could be launched sometime next month. Even though it has higher storage capacity, it is expected to be lighter, stronger, and faster than last year's T3.

Thanks to 64 layers of stacked cell-arrays (with a storage density of 512Gb per die), the Portable SSD T5's data transfer speed is expected to be somewhere around 800Mbps, up from 450Mbps in last year's model. Samsung could launch the upcoming variant in Black, Coral Blue, and Silver, matching color schemes of its new high-end smartphones.
