Intel are launching the new 750 Series range of SSD's these are PCI-E 3.0 versions with 4 lanes and are NVMe based SSD's

You can get them in two different flavours, either on a PCI-e Half Height Half length PCI-e adaptor card or a standard 2.5" SSD with PCI-express port on the SSD. A special cable is required for these. I am trying to Source these at the moment from Intel or anyone.

The 2.5" ones dont use a PCI-e slot they use the PCI-Express port on your motherboard if it supports it. X99 and Z97 high end motherboards have this port on them. it is 2 SATA ports next to a smaller port.
 
Thats SATA Express dude.

So the 2.5" ones dont come with the correct cable in the box for this?

:o;):D

Be interesting to see figures on them if anandtech ever do them - but they are very expensive.
 
Cor, these are pretty nifty. Though the PCIe 3.0 requirement is going to limit who can use one (depends on motherboard), that and the 2.5" versions use an uncommon, yet fairly novel SFF-8639 connector. None of the motherboards I've seen seem to have the connection, but apparently it's on its way to more consumer-grade motherboards. It seems to be marketed at business. I guess most folks will go with the PCIe 3.0 versions and now I wonder if it's backwards compatible with PCIe 2.0? Of course this would have slightly reduced performance.

Thye don't actually require PCI-E 3.0, they just need it for max performance, but considering no PCI-E 2.0 boards support them anyway it's not much of an issue is it? And it's unlikely support is going to get backported as ASUS are dragging their heels over backporting it to X79/Z87 :(

It's not ASUS, it's Intel. None of the motherboard manufactuerers have committed themselves to bringing these to Z87 (which is Z97 in essence), let alone X79 which is a generation behind. I'm sure if they had the freedom, someone would have done it by now.

Intel knows people have no incentive to upgrade from Z68/Z77/Z87/X79 to Z97/X99 as the performance is basically the same, however NVMe support might be something that creates the inventive.
