The industry’s first completely Lead-free SSD, the PV250-M280, was recently launched by world digital storage leader Apacer today bolstering the green supply chain as well acknowledging the EU’s RoHS exemptions near expiration.
PV250-M280 simultaneously provides performance and reliability while balancing energy conservation, reduced power consumption, and lower material costs—providing enterprises:
Designed in compliance with NVMe 1.4 protocol and PCIe Gen4 x4 interface, the PV250-M280 delivers blazing-fast throughput, ultra-low latency, and eco-conscious durability for modern embedded and industrial applications.
Energy-saving and carbon-reduction sustainable goals are further enhanced by Apacer’s CoreEnergy power regulation technology:
Apacer’s Fully Lead-free product portfolio now extends from DDR5 to SSDs, further integrated with its Core technologies—including power regulation, voltage stabilization, and snapshot backup—to comprehensively support ESG and sustainability goals.

Since the expiration of EU RoHS exemptions is soon to be problematic, products like The PV250-M280 are designed to mitigate future risks resulting from this.
The PV250-M280 not only incorporates fully lead-free resistors but also utilizes low-temperature solder paste and underfill technology in the SMT (Surface Mount Technology) process further extending sustainable efforts.
Apacer’s CoreEnergy technology introduces preset energy modes for varying application requirements allowing users to select the optimal setting and therefore reducing power consumption and preventing SSD overheating:
CoreEnergy ensures reliable, continuous operation in fan-less devices, battery-powered systems, and 24/7 environments, addressing the critical need for energy-efficient storage across industries.
In essence, Apacer CEO C.K. Chang stated its mission regarding sustainable storage that combines compliance with innovation:
In response to the global decarbonization movement, we are committed to embedding green innovation into our products and technologies, helping our customers prepare early for sustainable opportunities, and shaping a more eco-friendly future together.
