Plextor M10P 2TB NVMe PCIe 4.0 SSD review

Every now and then a manufacturer manages to surprise us with something really good. And here we are, meet the new M10P from Plextor. This round it does not have a Phison PS5018-E18 controller, and as it turns out, that brings in tremendously good results closing in on 7 GB/sec.

Thanks for the review Hilbert, interesting to see new controllers on the market!
Even if the main takeaway from SSD reviews seem to be that real-world performance differences between years-old 500GB SATA drives and bleeding edge 2TB PCIe 4.0 drives is negligible at best.
Perhaps DirectStorage and similar technologies will change that down the line, let's hope so, but until then I'd go with one of the cheaper 3D TLC options and put the saved money towards components were it makes a tangible difference today.
The price delta to newer PCIe 4.0 drives have been going down of late, locally at least, but it's still nowhere near the actual performance difference.

What we need is applications. Our favourite type, Games to be able to use these drives effectively. If the keep optimising apps for spinners then whats this for.
Maybees the new consoles will lead the way for games to better use an SSD as they do not feature spinners..

my first M.2 was a Plextor, they were the first to put in heatsinks and they were the first used by Enterprise
they sell much closer to MSRP than other brands and the premium comes through in the products.

it feels like random read/write numbers have been stuck for 5 years.
80/266mb/s when my m9pe did 66/220mb/s on z97.
it's faster,but it's baby steps
