Plextor has released its M3 Pro Series solid state drive (SSD) with enhanced sequential and random read/write speeds and with features such as 24nm Toggle Flash and firmware updates.
With its 2.5” form factor drive and reduced height, the M3 Pro Series is compatible with standard notebooks and PCs as well as ultra-slim notebooks. Storage capacities available include 128GB, 256GB, and 512GB. The M3 Pro delivers sequential read/write speeds of up to 540/450 MB/s and random read/write speeds of up to 75,000/69,000 IOPS. Similar to its predecessor (the M3), the M3 Pro uses the latest SATA 6Gb/s (SATA III) interface, a server-grade controller from Marvell, and flash memory from Toshiba.
The M3 Pro also features exclusive firmware with True Speed technology, which includes Plextor’s proprietary Bad Block Management, Global Wear Leveling, and Instant Restore Technologies.
The M3 Pro, backed by a five-year warranty, includes a disk cloning and backup utility for fuss-free transfer of data from a traditional HDD to an SSD. Its 3.5” mounting bracket and screws allow for desktop and laptop installations.
