Company Will Showcase its New AI/Enterprise Storage Solutions with AIC at Super Computing 2025
TAIPEI and MILPITAS, Calif., Nov. 14, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Silicon Motion Technology Corporation (NasdaqGS: SIMO), a global leader in designing and marketing NAND flash controllers for solid-state storage devices, today announced its SM8388, the industry's leading power-efficient 8-channel PCIe Gen5 enterprise SSD controller, designed for high performance, low power, lower cost, and high-capacity QLC enterprise SSDs — enabling Nearline SSDs. It sets a new benchmark by combining ultra-high performance and QLC NAND support with enterprise-grade security features and exceptional energy efficiency, addressing the growing demand for scalable, high-capacity warm data storage in AI and cloud environments.
"The SM8388 extends our proven MonTitan SSD development platform that was first introduced with our successful high-performance, 16-channel PCIe Gen5 SM8366 controller," said Alex Chou, Senior Vice President of Enterprise Storage & Display Interface Solution Business at Silicon Motion. "Building on the same robust architecture that has been adopted by leading enterprise SSD makers, the SM8388 is purpose-built for Nearline SSDs that serve AI-driven databases and data-centric infrastructures, combining exceptional throughput with industry-leading power efficiency."
Featuring an 8-channel architecture supporting up to 3200MT/s per channel, the SM8388 delivers up to 14.4GB/s sequential read throughput and up to 3.5 million IOPS random read performance and supports SSD capacities of up to 128TB. Fully compliant with NVMe 2.6, the SM8388 supports multiple AI data center form factors, including EDSFF (E1.S/E3.S) and U.2/U.3, enabling flexible configurations for high-density Nearline deployments. The SM8388 also incorporates enterprise-grade security features, including attestation, secure boot, key wrapping, AES-256 encryption, TCG Opel and a hardware root of trust, ensuring data integrity and protection across AI and cloud storage environments.
With a typical active power consumption under 5W, the SM8388 achieves outstanding power efficiency without compromising performance. Its unique hardware-based channel speed accelerator, based on Separate Command Address (SCA), maximizes channel-level parallelism to fully unleash the performance potential of PCIe Gen5, delivering superior read performance and responsiveness. These attributes make the SM8388 particularly effective for AI-driven nearline storage, where high read throughput is critical for managing warm data and its unparalleled power efficiency delivers lower operating cost and total cost of ownership.
The MonTitan™ enterprise SSD development platform provides a highly scalable, customizable foundation for building PCIe Gen5 and future-generation SSD solutions. It combines Silicon Motion's advanced controller architecture, firmware stack, and reference design to accelerate time-to-market for partners developing enterprise and data center SSDs. Leveraging MonTitan's proven ecosystem and robust validation framework, the SM8388 enables seamless adoption of next-generation NAND technologies — including QLC — while delivering optimal performance and power efficiency for AI and Nearline storage applications.
"AIC is pleased to collaborate with Silicon Motion on next-generation AI server platforms designed for high-performance, power-efficient storage," said Michael Liang, President and CEO of AIC Inc. "By integrating SSDs powered by Silicon Motion's MonTitan development platform into our AI server systems, we enable highly efficient, high-capacity storage that meets the evolving demands of AI data centers — from training to inference and warm data management."
Silicon Motion will showcase its latest AI-optimized enterprise SSD controller solutions in collaboration with AIC at Super Computing 2025 (booth#305), highlighting exceptional performance and power efficiency for AI data infrastructure. The company's comprehensive portfolio of enterprise SSD controllers includes the SM8366, SM8308, and SM8388 for data storage applications, and the SM8008 and SM8004 for boot drives.

Rebrand Streamlines Procurement and Installation for Clients, Reflects GameChange's Expanding Product Offerings
NORWALK, Conn., June 1, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- GameChange Energy, a global energy infrastructure company, announces the consolidation of its solar tracker division (formerly GameChange Solar), transformer division (formerly GameChange BOS), eBOS division, and remote asset monitoring offerings under a single unified brand: GameChange Energy. This brand consolidation reflects the company's growth from a leading solar tracker manufacturer into an integrated energy platform, with products that deliver outstanding performance over the full life of the project.
The GameChange Energy brand unifies the organization's tracker, racking, transformer, eBOS, and remote asset monitoring offerings under a single identity, enabling the company to serve developers, EPCs, and utilities seeking a more integrated approach to project delivery. Operations and teams remain unchanged by the consolidation, with the added benefit of a unified company that can support increasingly complex projects. This structure provides GameChange Energy with the foundation to scale strategically across markets, while continuing to deliver the performance and reliability customers have come to expect.
"The GameChange Energy name tells the full story of what we offer now," says Andrew Worden, founder of GameChange Energy. "Utility-scale projects are growing more complex, so developers need partners who can reduce risk and streamline installation for all project scales and types. Unifying our tracker, eBOS, asset monitoring, and transformer offerings under a single platform positions us to deliver integrated capabilities with the reliability, speed, and service our customers expect."
GameChange Energy became the parent company of GameChange Solar and GameChange BOS when it launched its transformer business in 2023. GameChange Solar, launched in 2012, quickly grew into one of the world's leading solar tracker companies, with installations across six continents and over 63 GW deployed. In 2025, the company's portfolio expanded with the GameChange BOS launch of a 180,000 sq. ft., 5,400 MVA capacity transformer manufacturing facility in Mumbai, India. Earlier this year, GameChange Energy's acquisition of Terrasmart's eBOS division added 14 GW of proven track record and a domestic eBOS manufacturing facility in Detroit, MI. Most recently, the company announced a partnership with Boston-based Raptor Maps to offer customized asset health monitoring solutions for renewable and critical power projects.
"The biggest challenge we hear from customers is vendor coordination. Managing multiple suppliers across trackers, eBOS, monitoring, and transformers adds cost and time to every project," says Phillip Vyhanek, CEO of GameChange Energy. "Consolidating under a single brand simplifies and speeds that process for our clients, maintaining our commitment to excellence, high-performance products, and long-term customer relationships."
