Plextor to Release PlexTurbo 3, PlexVault, PlexCompressor

Plextor, brand of storage and multimedia products owned by Shinano Kenshi of Japan, showed their latest M7e hardware and PlexTurbo 3 software technology during Computex Taipei 2015.

The company also released its latest consumer SSDs, as well as other SSD products designed for corporate and industrial use.

Plextor will introduce the latest successor to its signature PCIe SSD product line: the M7e. Along with inheriting the performance and player-grade heat sinks of its predecessor, the M7e increases heat dissipation of the SSD more rapidly via large heat sinks and internal airflow. Temperature can be a determining factor in reducing electronic product’s lifespan, and there are no such concerns with the high cooling efficiency of the M7e.

PCIe interface is the most common high-speed interface on PCs. In comparison to the SATA interface, which has already reached its limit in development, the future of PCle SSDs is ripe with potential.

As for software, Plextor proudly presents the PlexTurbo Third Generation technology (PlexTurbo3), which is to succeed the previous generation of PlexTurbo caching software. The original PlexTurbo was aimed to improve on writing speed, and Plextor has also utilized cache to achieve a greater writing speed while developing its 2nd generation predecessor. This time around, other than maintaining its superiority in writing speed, PlexTurbo3 further develops the reading speed of the SSDs. After a PC boots up, the programs running before the last shutdown will be automatically preloaded, reducing the waiting time of running the programs. The PlexTurbo3 smart cache technology made further improvements, providing automatic load balancing that supports multiple drives and interfaces, in comparison to the previous version.

PlexVault software is aimed to provide a more secured space and complete control privileges over the SSD to users. Even if you are using a computer with others, you can still store your private data via PlexVault, safely and securely hidden on the computer, as long as the computer is equipped with a Plextor SSD.

The PlexCompressor software technology is going to be a popular new technology among public users. The storage capacity of SSDs is always a key point of comparison, and now Plextor has released their new PlexCompressor smart compression technology that gives the user more storage capacity without impacting user experience and system performance.

There was a live-demonstration of the stable performance of the new Plextor M7e. Visitors were able to experience for themselves the performance of M7e running the latest next-gen games at 4K resolution, as well as its performance advantages. They were also be shown the performance of PlexTurbo3, and how it supports both PCIe and SATA drives. PlexVault enables users to experience safe and secure storage functions and invisible drives, while PlexCompressor demonstrates its capabilities in increasing storage capacity without sacrificing performance and stability.

SSD products showed in the booth include high-performance gaming M7e PCIe SSD, M6 Pro SATA III SSD, also shown by Plextor include the new M.2 SATA and mSATA SSD series products: the M6MV, and M6GV.

The director of Plextor operation, Eva Lee, expressed that, “In this year’s Computex, Plextor showed off the latest technology-integrated M7e, and an array of exclusive Plextor software specifically designed for different user requirements, such as PlexTurbo3, PlexVault, and PlexCompressor. There are also superior products that are aimed for the general consumer market. We welcome all industry experts and professionals to visit.”
