Best entry-level SSD upgrade
Plextor has combined advanced SSD technology with proprietary firmware and
software to create the S2 series of SSDs that offer users the best cost vs.
performance ratio.
The S2 series uses high quality components such as the Hynix 16nm TLC NAND Flash
memory and the latest SMI controller chip to deliver continuous blazing read/write
speeds of up to 520/480 MB/s and random read/write speeds of 96K/77K IOPS. The
exceptional performance offers first time users and enthusiasts the most affordable
SSD upgrade.
PlexNitro cache buffer technology offers true capacity
Proprietary PlexNitro technology uses the SLC cache mechanism making
over-provisioning (OP) unnecessary for improved read/write performance. This puts
the full capacity of the SSD at the user's fingertips. For a 128 GB TLC SSD, where
other brands have only 120GB available after OP is deducted, S2 delivers the full
128GB without any compromises in performance. What a great offer in terms of
cost vs. performance!
Flexible configuration options
To satisfy the SSD configuration and upgrade requirements of desktop and
notebook computers, the S2 series is available in two interfaces: 2.5" (S2C) and M.2
2280 (S2G). There are also three capacities available:
give enthusiasts the most flexibility in their SSD configuration.
