11.01.2012 - Plextor annuncia la linea di SSD SATA 6Gb/s (SATA III) M3 Pro

Plextor ha annunciato al CES la nuova linea di unità di memorizzazione di massa di tipo Solid State Drive (SSD) denominata M3 Pro che offre, rispetto alla precedente linea M3S, maggiori prestazioni in lettura e scrittura, sia in modalità sequenziale che random.

I nuovi SSD della linea M3 Pro hanno un form factor di 2.5-inch ed inoltre vantano una altezza di soli 7mm, per cui possono essere installati non soltanto in abbinamento ai desktop e ai notebook standard, ma anche ai portatili "ultra-slim".

I nuovi drive M3 Pro hanno una interfaccia di tipo SATA 6Gb/s (SATA III): inoltre essi sono realizzati con un controller di Marvell e con la memoria flash di Toshiba. Plextor attesta per i nuovi SSD una velocità di lettura e scrittura pari a 540MB/s e 450 MB/s rispettivamente in modalità sequenziale, mentre il valore del parametro IOPS (Input /Output Operations Per Second) è pari in lettura e scrittura random a 75000 e 69000 rispettivamente.

Gli SSD M3 Pro, con capacità pari a 12 GB, 25GB e 512GB, saranno commercializzati da Plextor a febbraio.

Plextor, leading developer and manufacturer of high-performance digital media and storage equipment, announces the release of its latest Solid State Drive, M3 Pro, at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas today.

The new M3 Pro Series offers improvements to the current M3S, including a significant boost in sequential and random read/write speeds. Other changes include high-grade 24 nm Toggle Flash, firmware updates, and a new 7 mm height form factor to fit ultra-slim notebooks.

The M3 Pro is a 2.5" form factor drive with a height of only 7 mm, making it compatible with standard notebooks and PCs, as well as ultra-slim notebooks. The following storage capacities will be available in early 2012: 128 GB, 256 GB, and 512 GB. The M3 Pro will deliver 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 the M3, the M3 Pro uses the latest SATA 6 Gb/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. True Speed prevents drastic drops in read/write speed common to other SSDs and, in fact, maintains the M3 Pro's high performance at like-new levels throughout the life of the drive.

Plextor exceeds industry requirements with Enterprise Benchmark testing. Before leaving the factory, each Plextor SSD is put through a rigorous 20-hour high temperature burn-in test and strenuous simulations of real-world working environments. As a result Plextor SSDs have a 0.59% average annual failure rate, one of the lowest in the industry. Plextor's no-compromise customer policy includes a five-year ironclad warranty and the highest standards of customer support.

"We are excited to announce the M3 Pro at CES this year. It will be Plextor's fastest and most efficient SSD to date, and with the 7 mm height, we now offer a solution for ultra-slim notebook users,” said Kathy Huynh, Product Marketing Manager.

The M3 Pro includes a disk cloning and backup utility for fuss-free transfer of data from a traditional HDD to an SSD. It also comes with a 3.5" mounting bracket and screws for desktop installation making the new drive ideal for both desktop and laptop installations.

The M3 will continue to be available to businesses, power users, serious gamers, system integrators, and anyone who demands high efficiency and fault tolerant performance. For those seeking even greater performance, the M3 Pro will be available in February 2012.
