Plextor M7e M.2 PCIe Gen 2x4 Performance caught on photo

Plextor M7e M.2 PCIe Gen 2x4 Performance caught on photo

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:

I wonder if these new SSDs will need any heatsinks. I saw a recent review on Anandtech where the SDD in question was doing some thermal throttling, which was a proper WTF for me, because I only thought C(G)PUs were doing that and more importantly produced enough heat to justify having such feature.

I see what looks like a marvell controller, probably with a dram chip in front of it for the cache and some caps that look pretty worn-out on the pic, some Toshiba Nand chips...

more competition = more dropping prices.

Always good to see more interesting products to help drive the price down of the other versions of this tech.

There were some M.2 SSD's hitting 105 degrees. Let me find the article.

Cant seem to find it anymore, remember it being a youtube video.
