In today’s data-driven world, the need for fast, high-capacity, and universally compatible external storage solutions has never been more pressing. Whether you’re a creative professional managing terabytes of video footage, a gamer expanding your library, or someone who needs reliable, portable backups, the future of external SSDs is here — and Computer World is ready to help you get it.

Enter the Game-Changer: Silicon Motion SM2324

Silicon Motion’s new SM2324 single-chip controller is redefining what external SSDs can do. Built with a next-generation 40 Gb/s USB4 interface, it delivers lightning-fast sequential read speeds up to 4,000 MB/s and write speeds up to 3,809 MB/s. This kind of performance enables real-time editing of high-resolution video straight from an external drive — perfect for filmmakers, editors, and designers on the move.

But speed is only half the story.

The SM2324 supports external SSDs up to 32TB in capacity — a huge leap that means fewer devices to manage, more room for large projects, and the ability to carry entire production libraries in your pocket.

Universal Compatibility, Professional Performance

Beyond capacity and performance, the SM2324 shines in its platform versatility:

  • Windows: Compatible with XP and later
  • macOS: Supports 10.x and newer.
  • Linux: Works with kernel 2.4 and up

This makes it an ideal solution for multi-platform environments, where data must move seamlessly across different systems. It’s even optimized for Apple ProRes workflows, and MFi-certified for full iPhone and iPad compatibility — a key benefit for mobile content creators.
