SSSTC Launches Video Recording SATA SSD for Stable, Uninterrupted Performance
TAIPEI, TAIWAN - Media OutReach Newswire - 24 June 2025 - Solid State Storage Technology Corporation (SSSTC) announces the launch of its SSSTC CVD Series SATA SSDs, specifically engineered for high-frequency, long-duration continuous write applications. Designed to meet the demanding requirements of video recording, surveillance, video production, media streaming, in-vehicle recording, edge sensing, and industrial data logging, the SSSTC CVD Series delivers exceptional stability and durability in write-intensive environments.
When non-optimized SSDs are used for high-intensity video recording, they often suffer from sudden speed drops caused by SLC cache saturation or firmware interference—resulting in lag, frame loss, write interruptions, or even video data loss. To address these pain points, the SSSTC CVD Series features SSSTC's optimized Direct Write firmware, purpose-built for intensive write workloads. This technology writes data directly to TLC NAND Flash Memory, eliminating reliance on the SLC cache and significantly improving performance stability.
As a result, the SSSTC CVD Series delivers stable write speeds (preventing speed drops), low latency (eliminating write lag), distortion-free visuals (avoiding frame loss), and uninterrupted recording (preventing write interruptions), thereby preserving the integrity of video data. Even under 24/7 high-resolution continuous recording, the SSSTC CVD Series maintains steady and consistent performance.
Powered by high-quality Kioxia BiCS FLASH™ 5th-generation 3D TLC NAND Flash Memory, the SSSTC CVD Series combines finely tuned firmware developed by SSSTC's in-house R&D team to ensure high stability and reliability, achieving a mean time between failures (MTBF) of over 3 million hours.
In terms of capacity and form factor, the SSSTC CVD Series is designed to meet the commonly adopted specifications in industrial applications, featuring capacities from 128 GB to 2 TB and industry-preferred form factors, 2.5-inch and M.2 2280, to ensure seamless integration with industrial PCs, embedded platforms, and edge devices. It also supports an operating temperature range of 0 °C to 85 °C, enabling dependable performance in diverse and rugged environments.
Additionally, the SSSTC CVD Series features a low-power design through its support for DevSleep mode, significantly reducing power consumption during system idle periods. This makes it especially suitable for front-end recording devices and mobile monitoring equipment that require stable, long-term operation.
As a subsidiary of Kioxia, SSSTC leverages decades of expertise in NAND Flash Memory storage and industrial applications to provide stable and reliable SSDs to customers worldwide. The SSSTC CVD Series is now in mass production. For more information, please visit the SSSTC website: https://www.ssstc.com.

Rare earths and real risk: Why the global supply chain needs a rethink
They are buried in our smartphones, embedded in EV motors, and essential to jet engines and wind turbines. Yet most people could not name a single rare earth element. This quiet invisibility belies their strategic importance. As the world accelerates towards a more digital and electrified future, rare earths have become indispensable – and increasingly, a source of geopolitical friction. The global supply chain behind these elements is under pressure. China currently produces nearly 70 per cent of rare earth ores and holds more than 95 per cent of global refining and separation capacity. For heavy rare earths, that number is closer to total control. This concentration gives China significant influence over price, availability and access to materials that power the energy transition and advanced defence technologies. In short, it is not just an economic advantage. It is a position of systemic control. But the challenges do not end with geographic concentration. The industry also struggles with what is known as the 'balance problem'. Not all rare earths are created equal. High-demand elements like neodymium and praseodymium, crucial for permanent magnets in electric vehicles and wind turbines, are co-mined with lower-demand elements such as cerium and lanthanum. Producers must extract and process everything, regardless of market demand. That creates inefficiencies, price distortions and sustainability concerns. This imbalance has strategic consequences. Without careful co-ordination, demand for magnet rare earths could outpace supply within the next decade. That does not mean catastrophe, but it does mean rising costs, tighter margins, and a squeeze on industries that depend on long-term stability. Momentum is finally shifting. As the urgency to diversify supply chains intensifies, ion adsorption clay (IAC) deposits have come into focus – and not just in China and Myanmar, where they have long been tapped. Exploration efforts are under way in countries like Brazil, Uganda and South-east Asia, offering new access to heavy rare earths. Unlike traditional hard-rock mines, IAC operations can reach production in just four to seven years, giving them a distinct strategic and commercial advantage. Refining is the next major hurdle. Mining rare earths without the ability to refine them only shifts the bottleneck, it does not solve it. Today, the vast majority of REE concentrates – even those mined outside China – are still sent back for processing. But that is beginning to change. Companies like Lynas in Malaysia, MP Materials in the US, and Neo Performance Materials in Estonia are building local refining capacity. These efforts mark early steps towards a more regionally balanced and secure supply chain. Innovation is also reshaping what's possible across the value chain. Manufacturing techniques like grain boundary diffusion allow for the reduction of dysprosium and terbium usage without compromising performance – a potential game changer given their sensitivity to supply shocks. Meanwhile, magnet recycling and by-product recovery from sources like phosphogypsum offer alternative streams of material with lower environmental impact. A co-ordinated, multinational response is essential. The US, Japan and Australia have launched public-private initiatives to diversify rare earth supply chains and strengthen refining capabilities. It is not just about securing raw materials. It is about ensuring that economic resilience and national security are not tied to a single point of failure. For those deeply involved in the rare earth ecosystem, from miners and refiners to end users and policymakers, the issues at stake go well beyond geology or engineering. They are a test of foresight and preparedness. The companies and countries that invest, innovate, and collaborate today will be the ones best positioned to thrive in the next era of industrial transformation. The 20th century was powered by oil. The 21st will be driven by rare earths. Those who recognise this early and act decisively will shape the future.

China fashion retailer Shein to file confidentially for Hong Kong IPO in rare move, sources say
China-founded fast-fashion retailer Shein plans to file a draft prospectus confidentially for its Hong Kong listing, marking a rare departure from the usual practice of companies making public filings of IPO documents, three sources with knowledge of the matter said. Shein aims to submit the filing confidentially as soon as this week, one of the sources said. A second source said the filing was expected to be made by Monday. Shein's confidential filing, if approved, would represent a waiver of one of the main listing rules by the Hong Kong exchange for one of the world's most closely-watched IPO candidates, and possibly the largest in the city this year, two of the sources said. The filing will come as the company, which sells low-priced apparel such as $5 dresses and $10 jeans in around 150 countries, makes its third attempt to go public, more than 18 months after it first filed for a U.S. IPO in late 2023. Confidential filings enable companies to keep vital operational and financial information under wraps for longer and allow them to go through the regulatory review process without public disclosure. Hong Kong's listing rules permit confidential filings for secondary listings by companies already listed on recognised overseas exchanges, such as the New York Stock Exchange or Nasdaq. The exchange could also waive or modify the publication requirements in a spinoff from an overseas listed parent upon application by a new applicant, the listing rules show. While this practice is common for IPO applicants in the U.S., it remains relatively rare in Hong Kong, where high-profile IPOs have included Chinese tech giants Xiaomi and Meituan, which both filed publicly for their floats. The sources spoke to Reuters on the condition of anonymity as they were not authorised to speak to the media. Shein, founded by China-born entrepreneur Sky Xu, did not reply to a request for comment. The Hong Kong stock exchange declined to comment on individual companies. Documents, including financials, related to Shein's IPO will remain undisclosed until the company passes a hearing with the Hong Kong stock exchange, which is the final step in the city's regulatory approval process. Prior to that final step, Shein must secure an approval from the China Securities Regulatory Commission (CSRC) to go ahead with the Hong Kong IPO. It is not known if Shein has already secured a verbal nod from the Chinese securities regulator. The CSRC did not respond to Reuters request for comment. Reuters first reported last month, citing sources, that Shein was working towards a listing in Hong Kong after its proposed London IPO failed to secure the green light from Chinese regulators. The New York attempt also did not receive CSRC approval, Reuters previously reported. REGULATORY APPROVAL Shein's confidential submission of the prospectus enables Hong Kong and mainland Chinese regulators to assess the IPO application, raise their questions to Shein and prepare it for regulatory approval privately, the sources said. The regulators would be able to do that before public, including potential institutional investors', scrutiny of its application materials, including risk factors, they added. The filing would come against the backdrop of Shein grappling with the knock-on impacts of the Sino-U.S. trade war after U.S. President Donald Trump ended duty-free treatment of ecommerce parcels and hiked tariffs on Chinese goods, hurting its business in the U.S., its biggest market. Shein was valued at $66 billion during its pre-IPO fundraising round in 2023, down by a third from a funding round one year earlier. Its eventual IPO valuation will hinge on the impact of the tariff changes, sources have said. RISK DISCLOSURES A Shein listing would help Hong Kong, which saw $12.8 billion worth of IPOs and second listings in the first half, re-establish its credibility as a global fundraising centre at a time of major volatility stoked by U.S. trade policy changes. Shein, founded in mainland China in 2012, is hoping to succeed in Hong Kong after failed attempts to list in New York and then London, where Britain's financial regulator approved the listing. Shein will have to file with the CSRC within three working days after submitting its IPO application in Hong Kong, in line with Beijing's rules for Chinese firms seeking offshore listings. Shein shifted headquarters from China to Singapore in 2022 and does not own or operate any factories, but remains subject to Chinese IPO rules because its products are mostly made by a network of 7,000 third-party suppliers in China, sources have said. The CSRC applies the rules on a "substance over form" basis, granting it discretion on when and how to implement them. A draft prospectus would normally disclose key risks to a company including those linked to its supply chain. Shein has faced allegations from politicians and campaigners that its supply chain in China is linked to forced labour of Uyghur minorities in Xinjiang, a highly contentious issue for Beijing, which denies any abuses in the cotton-producing province. The U.S. has a ban in place on imports of products made using forced labour from Xinjiang, and Shein has said it does not allow its suppliers to use Chinese cotton in U.S.-bound products. Shein has said its supplier code of conduct prohibiting forced labour applies worldwide.

Copper slips from three-month peak on Chinese data
Copper prices slipped on Friday from a three-month peak after weak data in top metals consumer China and some profit-taking, but losses were modest due to underlying tightness and buoyant premiums. London Metal Exchange benchmark three-month copper fell 0.5% to $9,855 per metric ton in official open-outcry trading, having hit $9,917, its highest since March 27. It was up 2.2% for the week. Data showed that China's industrial profits swung back into sharp decline in May from a year earlier, as factory activity slowed. "Falling industrial profits is not a good sign for the industrial sector in general, but it's not a straight line translation to lower copper demand," said Nitesh Shah, commodity strategist at WisdomTree. "What we see is that the copper-intensive stories are probably still very much in full force at the moment." Spending by China on its power grid, for example, has been strong, Shah added. It hit a record last year and was up 19% in the first five months of 2025, Citi said in a note. Copper on the Shanghai Futures Exchange rose 1.5% to 79,920 yuan ($11,148.93), having hit 80,060 yuan, its highest since March 31. It was up 2% for the week. Expectations that the United States will impose tariffs on copper imports have pulled metal to that country, leaving shortages elsewhere. Data on Friday showed that inventories in warehouses monitored by ShFE slid 19% from the previous week to 81,550 tons, down 70% over the past four months. LME copper stocks have tumbled 66% in the same period, sending premiums for nearby contracts soaring. The premium for the LME cash copper contract over the three-month contract retreated on Friday to $250 a ton from $320 a ton on Thursday, its highest since November 2021. U.S. Comex copper futures fell 1.2% to $5.06 a lb, bringing the premium of Comex over LME copper to $1,311 a ton, slightly weaker than on Thursday. Among other metals, LME aluminium dipped 0.1% to $2,580 a ton, zinc shed 0.5% to $2,755, lead fell 0.3% to $2,033, nickel was little changed at $15,210 while tin rose 0.5% to $33,930.
