The M8Pe is a worthy competitor to OCZ's RD400, and quite a bit cheaper than the Intel 750—a very good product, in other words. And it's the sexiest-looking PCIe card SSD out there, if that means anything to you. To comment on this article and othe...

1TB capacity, Value pricing, Exceptional application performance, High endurance, MLC NAND
Plextor software tools missing (at the time of writing), Straight transfer performance
The Plextor M8Pe NVMe SSD series is the unsung hero for late 2016. Plextor hasn't had a product that impressed us in a number of years. The M5 Pro from 2012 was the last product from the company that I recommended to users based on performance and ove...
The numbers that these NVMe M2 units produce are obviously staggering and as such impressive. And yeah going from a HDD towards an SSD is making a huge difference. Going from a fast SATA3 SSD towards NVMe M2 again is a much faster step, but sure less to...
It has been quite some time since Plextor has given us anything to rave about. We are very happy with the M8PeY mainly because it delivers exceptional moderate workload performance. It also did extremely well with our brutal Sledgehammer test. These res...

PCI-Express SSDs are still quite expensive, but they also perform significantly better than SATA600 SSDs. A few years ago the additional price you paid for a high-end SSD barely gave you better performance due to the SATA600-bottleneck, but now the differ...
Solid value, Top-notch read speeds, Useful form factor, High build quality
Divisive look, Middling write speeds
Yes, if you have an older PC you're looking to spruce up with even faster storage. Popular chips like the Core i7-4790K still power impressive gaming rigs, but their motherboards lack the M.2 slots needed for the very latest drive. The Plextor M8Pe is an...
Good performance, Great price, Beautiful design, Latest generation NVMe and PCIe interface,
Not the fastest NVMe tested, but still very impressive, Neutral, LED Lighting, “Plextor’s M8PeY PCIe NVMe SSD will not only give your system a great performance boost, it will also give it a great look thanks to the design. Simply a beautiful drive from s
We never did see the Plextor M7P drive and while I was saddened by that, there was a reason for it. Plextor/Lite-On weren't satisfied with the drive at the time and instead of releasing a possibly inferior product, they scraped it and went back to the dra...

Abstract: With the M8Pe M.2 NVMe SSD ($279.99 for 512GB), Plextor is throwing its hat into the high-end solid-state drive ring. And if you couldn't tell by the red-and-black color scheme, Plextor is also looking to lure gamers away from Samsung's successful 960 Pro...
