![]() These are street prices in the "initial launch wave" Plextor is able to keep the prices very competitive. I just pulled some numbers from some online e-tailers. On the next page we'll talk a little more about NVMe. This enables NVMe devices to function within the existing operating system I/O stack protocol. To be able to make use of the new NVMe based devices inside your PC you have to have a proper driver installed, Windows 7, 8 and 10 have this NVMe protocol driver embedded. NVMe cuts corners by removing components within the I/O path like that good old fashioned RAID controller. The idea behind NVMe is to improve the storage stack by optimizing the way an application accesses a Flash device. NVMe is also known as Non-Volatile Memory Express or the Non-Volatile Memory Host Controller Interface Specification. CrystalDiskMark, AS SSD Benchmark, ATTO Disk Benchmark, HD Ture Pro. With the M.2 form factor SSDs, more consumers with desktops or ultra-thin PCs can benefit from best-in-class performance and reliability of the technology. The models tested today are Samsung PM951 128G and PM871 128G a comparison between. 64 layer (BICS) actually is going into production this year as well. Current V-NAND stacks have 32 and even 48 cell layers vertically over one another, rather than decreasing cell dimensions to fit onto a fixed horizontal space, resulting in higher density and better performance with a smaller footprint. Also, installed NAND toolsets in the wafer fabs can, for the most part, be reused, thereby extending the useful life of fab equipment. The good news is continued cost reduction, smaller die sizes and more capacity per NAND chip. In V-NAND, NAND layers, not chips, are stacked in a single IC. V-NAND is physical vertical NAND cell stacking not to be confused with chip stacking in a multi-chip package. Given its size, this has to be vertical stacked nand or V-nand. ![]() So the sample that have arrived in our test lab is the 512GB M2 version of the drive with that heatsink slash cover. The M8Pe series will come with MLC NAND flash memory from the 15nm Toshiba NAND node. Plextor is to offer four volume size versions of the products initially, the 128GB, 256GB, 512GB and 1 TB models. Combined with the PCIe Gen 3 x4 interface, the M8Pe can provide breakthrough performances with maximum continuous sequential read/write speeds of up to 2500/1400 MB per second, and random read/write speeds of up to 280,000/240,000 IOPS. One with just the bare M2 unit (M8PeGN), another one with the M2 unit + heatsink cover (M8PeG) and then the last series will be the M2 unit mounted into a PCI Express daughter card (M8PeY). With NVMe 1.2 support, the M8Pe significantly reduces access latency to provide faster data transmission speeds. So I had to move the recovery partition as it was between the OS partition and the Unallocated space.Īsus should never have used these PM951 128GB drives in the first place.Plextor will release these puppies all as MS unit, but separated into three lines. The only issue I had was extending my OS Partition into unallocated space as I'd forgot the unallocated space had to be adjacent to the partition you want to extend. Thanks very much for the guide! This was a lot easier than I'd envisaged. The improvement over the PM951 is startling to be honest. Once after formating the SM961 as an NTFS volume and then again after cloning my old disk to the SM961. I've actually removed my PM951 128GB NVME SSD, put the SM961 into it's slot and the laptop boots from it automatically and re-labels it the C drive. I followed your instructions using the free version of AOMEI Backup and extended the OS partition once everything was finished. ![]() Ok so I've installed my new SM961 256GB NVME in my G752VT.
