PX-M3 Pro Series

SATA 6Gb/s

The new Plextor SATA 6Gb/s SSD, the M3 Pro performance series, provides read/write speeds up to 540/450 MB/s in sequential mode and up to 75,000/69,000 IOPS in random mode. The M3 Pro uses high-grade 24nm toggle flash, and 7mm height suitable for ultra-slim notebooks. The M3 Pro is Plextors third SSD release to feature exclusive firmware with True Speed technology, which includes Plextors proprietary Bad Block Management, Global Wear Leveling, and Instant Restore Technologies.

True Speed is designed to prevent drastic drops in read/write speeds that normally occur with SSDs after prolonged use or when data becomes heavily fragmented. True Speed technology will maintain the M3 Pros high performance and read/write speeds at like-new levels throughout the life of the drive. Plextor strives to exceed industry standards with rigorous benchmark testing. Before leaving the factory, each Plextor SSD is put through a 20-hour high temperature burn-in test and an intense simulation of real world environments. As a result, Plextor SSDs have a 0.59% average annual failure rate, which is one of the lowest in the industry. M3 Pro SSD uses the latest SATA 6Gb/s (SATA III) interface, Marvells server-grade controller chip, and Toshiba 24nm Toggle NAND flash. Also supported by the flash is a 1.8V power mode, providing the M3 Pro with extremely low-power consumption making it a very eco-friendly product. The M3 Pro offers an affordable upgrade solution to transform your existing desktop or laptop into a high efficiency and fast performance device. The M3 Pro is available in 128GB, 256GB, and 512GB capacities.

Highest Quality Components for Optimum Performance

Server-grade Marvell 88SS9174 controller chip for read/write speeds of up to 540MB/s and 450MB/s in sequential mode, and 75,000 and 69,000 IOPS for random read/write operations at 4K file size The M3 Pro supports SATA 6Gb/s and is backward compatible with SATA 3Gb/s and SATA 1.5Gb/s The latest 24nm synchronous MLC NAND flash modules with Toggle mode support from Toshiba further enhance product reliability The DDR3 DRAM cache transfers data faster and helps extend lifetime of the product
