Featuring interchangeable faceplate designs honouring Obi-Wan Kenobi, Darth Vader, and Luke Skywalker, the latest additions to the company’s line of licensed special edition storage devices bring PCIe Gen4 speeds, peak performance, and customisation to the battle stations of Star Wars collectors and tech enthusiasts. 

Officially licensed by Lucasfilm, the special edition FireCuda™ NVMe SSD represents the famed characters with three iconic LightsaberTM designs built on swappable heatsink faceplates so gamers can choose a design inspired by the Jedi or Sith that fits their collection at any moment.
