Plextor M8Pe 512GB M2 NVMe SSD Review @ Somewhere

Published: | Posted By:

NVMe is the future of SSD performance and I will admit I feel the adoption rate is extremely slow.  Not so much from consumers but from companies making the drives.  On the flip side we have every mobo maker in existence pushing M.2 and U.2 connectivity and a real lack of drives to take advantage.

Until now, kinda.

In this review we test the super fast Plextor M8Pe 512GB Series M.2 SSDs, a product that reads well over 2GB/sec and writes over 1 GB/sec. These new M.2 units use the NVM express (NVME) protocol and that means storage technology at terrific speeds while remaining competitive in pricing. Will Plextor be able to deliver a unit that manages to shock and awe?

There is a real chance this is a Samsung drive with a Plextor heat spreader so don't get to juicy just yet.
