Product Overview Top performing controller
Fully supporting the latest generation of the SATAII / 6Gbps standard, with up to 510 MB/s transfer rate. The Marvell controller chip delivers extensive products life, data security, and stability, and also has excellent read-write performance with both compressible and non-compressible data making it the best choice on the SSD market.

Non-0/1 state
Plextor SSD remains the same read and write speed when select 0, 1 or random for testing.

Exclusive, innovative firmware technology
Exclusive advanced firmware technology; innovations that ensure Plextor SSD solutions continue to deliver maximum hardware performance. Instant Restore solves the customers' concern about SSDs, the read/write efficiency in Dirty State. By rearranging the data blocks, garbage collection, and optimization of unused space, the technology allows reading and writing large amounts of data at high speeds. The Global Wear Leveling distributes wear over time, which effectively extends the life of the SSD. At the same time, the Bad Block Management algorithm effectively ensures that data is stored on functional areas of the memory, minimizing the risk of errors.

Dirty Drive state
Plextor SSD retains high efficiency under clean drive and long-term usage simulation (Dirty Drive)

High Plextor Quality : Stringent testing for every drive
Every Plextor SSD is built to exacting standards and thoroughly tested to ensure that it is manufactured to Plextor's impeccable quality demands. These include 20-hour High Temperature burn-in test and the rigors of the industry's premier-level FLEXSTAR testing machine to simulate the real working environment. Plextor SSD devices are of the highest quality, as borne out by the 0.5% average annual failure rate (AFR), the lowest in the industry.
