The Plextor M2P SATA 6Gb/s SSD series provides best-in-class performance, with read/write speeds of up to 500/440 MB/s in sequential mode and up to 70,000/65,000 IOPS in random mode. Powered by the exclusive True Speed technology, they deliver sustained high performance and consistent read/write speeds, even after intensive use and periods of continuous operation.
For end users, True Speed means high transfer speeds in any real-world computing environment and consistent performance levels in the long term, without the severe write speed degradation that can occur with SSDs.Plextor’s full range of True Speed SSD products feature the best server-grade controller chip with support for the latest SATA III 6GB/standard and high-quality Toggle NAND flash from industry leader Toshiba. Data transfer speeds are optimized by the exclusive firmware, which supports advanced functions including Instant Restore, Global Wear Leveling, and Bad Block Management.
Plextor’s SSD products are built with maximum attention to quality and service. Before leaving the factory, each drive goes through the most rigorous tests in the industry, including a 20-hour high temperature burn-in test and strenuous simulations of real-world working environments. Reflecting its commitment to excellence, Plextor’s SSDs have an average annual failure rate of 0.5%, the lowest in the industry.
The Plextor M2P series is designed for users who demand high performance in actual use and expect their SSD to continue to deliver that performance throughout its long lifetime.
