Plextor M5 Pro: an other step forward

[Highendtoys]

It launches tomorrow in the US. The 4K numbers in the set from the store are weak. It is actually much faster. I would say those numbers were ran on a system with heavy C-States enabled. The drive does over 100MB/s 4K write.

Now really, could anyone from TweakTown actually be mad about an NDA lead, lol. I was just giving you a hard time.

I personally can't say much until tomorrow but you guys will want to read the article for sure. I'm wrapping up fill testing now. The Marvell controllers have always ran a low slower than SF when the drive is half full...not so much of an issue now.

Also Zaxx, if you saw my news story from Computex about 19nm Tosh and 20nm IMFT you would know that 19nm Tosh was ready back then. 20nm IMFT was....well not looking so good. Now that I'm running power draw in my testing I have to say Tosh is the way to go 100% of the time.
