PLEXTOR, maker of solid state drives (SSD) and other high-performance storage devices for consumers. They have today announced the launch of its new NVMe PCIe SSDs, the M9Pe series.
The new series of M9Pe SSDs has adopted an advanced NAND 3D 64 controller. That comes with intelligent cache technology. Also, that offers unprecedented subsequent readings / writes, up to 3,200 / 2,100 MB and up to 400,000 / 300,000 IOPS respectively.
Plextor launches a high-performance SSD for Gamers, the M9Pe with RGB lighting
Aimed at high-performance PC games such as eSports, the M9Pe boasts superior components for fewer delays. Also, there is a boot time that claims to be 20% faster compared to a typical SATA disk. The new M9Pe (only the HHHL / AIC version) also features a unique design with its programmable RGB LED lights. So, that is perfect for visual appeal in any configuration of desktop games.
Like its predecessors, the new M9Pe comes with a high-performance heatsink (only the M9PeY and M9PeG) to help regulate temperatures.
Fay Ho, director Channel Markets at LITE-ON Storage SBG, said: “The rapid growth of eSports games has been one of our inspirations for the development of relevant products and technologies that give players, amateurs or professionals an advantage competitive and the reliability they need. ”
And as we anticipated at first, seen the performance in CrystalDiskMark. That has published the manufacturer, has ballots for it, but also as we said will depend on the price. And, let’s not forget, the availability in the market, because Plextor has never stood out for counting with a wide availability of its products. Anyway, here you have the capture they have published, with quite impressive figures. It has been posted by Jon Coulter of TweakTown (who undoubtedly already have a sample for review in their hands) and shared on Facebook by Plextor USA.
We will see to see what happens at the end. I hope that the price accompanies and that they compete with Samsung with it because this would force the Koreans to adjust their rates very likely, something that would benefit the users in the end.
The M9Pe comes in three capacities, up to 1TB for even better flexibility, of 512GB and 256GB. It comes with a guarantee of 1.5 million hours and a service guarantee of 5 years.
For now, we do not know anything about the price.
