Plextor Announces Its First Laptop Solid State Drives

Plextor has unveiled introduced its first generation solid-state drive, using non-volatile and flash memory as the storage medium. Compared with conventional hard disk drives (HDDs), Solid State Drives (SSDs) deliver faster speed in system bootup, application launch, and file transfer, lower power consumption, longer battery life, and greater reliability, with lower component fate failure and higher durability with up to five times more resistant to shock and vibration when compared with HDD’s.

Equipped with Plextor’s proprietary wear leveling algorithm, the company’s SSD’s can prevent degradation of drive performance and prolong product life. Based on PC Mark SYSMark benchmark tests, Plextor SSD’s were the only brand SSDs that maintained the same level of performance regardless whether the drives were “clean” or “dirty.” I

Leveraging Plextor’s years of expertise in optical storage products, the company expands its product category to the solid state drive. The PX-128M1S 128GB SSD is designed to bring top performance and portability to your daily workflow. With Plextor’s Wear Leveling Technology and TRIM support, the PX-128M1S is able to maintain the performance and reliability over an extended period of usage. PC Mark, SYSMark, & HD Benchmark industry utility tests gave high scores to Plextor SSDs which have proven to prevent data degradation over time when compared with other SSDs.

With TRIM support, an operating system command set (not yet supported by OS X) that instructs the SSD to recognize the deleted blocks as available blocks, PX-128M1S can maintain write performance “like new” over time. It also supports SMART technology which analyzes data error ensuring the accuracy of data every time you use the drives. The PX-128M1S also includes the most powerful Acronis True Image software which provides users a full set of advanced features for backup and recovery needs.

The PX-128M1S is offered in a 2.5” laptop drive form factor that delivers a digital storage capacity of 128GB. A 64 GB PX-64M1S SSD is also offered. Both have a SATA II interface for better performance and versatility. The PX-128M1S also offers low power consumption, high shock and vibration resistance among other benefits.
