So yesterday I was at CeBIT and plextor was demoing their upcoming Plextor M7e M.2 PCIe SSD already. Blazing fast ! the M7e M.2 is a small M.2. device that plugs into a compatible motherboard, and the numbers are amazing compared to a regular SATA3 SSD, how does 1000 MB/sec + sound ?

This next generation solid state drive is using a PCIe Gen 2.0 x4 interface in combo with a Marvell 88SS9293 controller and the Toshiba A19 MLC NAND flash. 

These new generation M.2 devices will be fast alright. Talking with Plextor we confirmed that the PCB in the end will be colors black. The product will become available in 128, 256 , 512 and even one TB versions (which you see on the photo). The 1TB version however are a notch longer alright due to the space need for the NAND ICs.

Have a peek:
