Product overview

Released in February 2024, the Rocket 5 is Sabrent’s PCIe 5.0 NVMe family; the 2TB model pairs Phison’s E26 controller with Micron 232‑layer TLC and onboard LPDDR4 DRAM. It remains an active product, not discontinued.

Positioned as a flagship Gen5 SSD, it exists to push near‑saturation of a PCIe 5.0 x4 link for creators and high‑end gaming. It’s well‑suited as a blazing boot drive, a video‑editing scratch workspace, and a large, responsive game library. The 2TB SKU is rated up to 14/12 GB/s and carries a 1,200 TBW endurance; ensure adequate M.2 heatsinking for sustained performance.
