We referenced the upcoming Plextor M8Pe series of PCIe NVME SSDs in the Computex SSD Roundup and now Tom’s Hardware spotted the drives on Newegg, revealing the price and specifications for the new drives.
Check out the Tom’s Hardware post for all the details but basically look forward to M.2 and PCIe add-in card drives in capacities from 128GB to 1TB and sequential read/write speeds ranging from 1600MBps/500MBps for the 128GB up to 2500MBps/1400MBps for the 1TB.
All the drives are available in either M.2 without heatsink (mostly for laptops), M.2 with heatsink, and PCIe card with heatsink. Price goes from $90 for the 128GB M.2 without heatsink up to $650 for the 1TB in either M.2 with heatsink or PCIe card version.
