Abstract: It seems that our relationship with Plextor has had a shot of Adrenaline since our meet at CES Las Vegas 2013 and ‘first up’ analysis of the new Plextor M5 Pro Xtreme SSD is the result. We did have a bit of a heads up when Plextor asked us to review ...

There is a consistent that you will find in every Plextor SSD, in that, their partnership with Marvell for their SSD controller supplier and Toshiba for their memory is as strong as oak. With that comes the engineering expertise to fine tune your produc...

MLC memory provides 3,000 theoretical cycles, Speeds similar to the Samsung 840 Pro Series, Good size and weight for laptops, Fiveyear warranty
No software included, Much higher price per gig than the competition
The Plextor M5 Pro Xtreme 256GB is a great SSD with similar speeds to the top dogs on the market. The five-year warranty is enough to reassure even the most worrisome consumers. However, it's a bit more expensive than the competing SSDs, and Plextor doesn...
