Plextor M5 Pro SSD Review
Posted by Philipp Esselbach on: 10/25/2012 07:39 AM [ Print | 0 comment(s) ]
HardOCP posted a review on the Plextor M5 Pro SSD
Plextor has a long history in the storage market. Plextor has been developing and selling CD-ROM, DVD players, and other optical storage mediums since 1989. Now developing SSDs has become a core part of its business as well and has released yet another SSD in its PX-M Series, the Plextor M5 Pro.
The M5 Pro brings forth some new technology with its 19nm Toshiba Toggle NAND. Toshiba Toggle is the highest performing NAND available to manufacturers, but it does carry a price premium for that distinction. The die shrink to 19nm has reportedly been done with no loss to the underlying endurance of the NAND itself, yet an accompanying throughput increase per die.
The new "Monet" 88SS9187-BLD2 controller is the newest offering from Marvell, and offers class-leading features during a time when LAMD has entered the market to compete while SandForce has been quiet on the release of its next controller. This 8-channel NAND flash controller is the third iteration from Marvell and sports dual-core architecture.
