The Plextor M9P(G) Plus is a solid-state drive in the M.2 2280 form factor, launched in 2020. It is available in capacities ranging from 256 GB to 1 TB. This page reports specifications for the 1 TB variant. With the rest of the system, the Plextor M9P(G) Plus interfaces using a PCI-Express 3.0 x4 connection. The SSD controller is the 88SS1092 Eldora Plus from Marvell, a DRAM cache chip is available. Plextor has installed 96-layer TLC NAND flash on the M9P(G) Plus, the flash chips are made by Toshiba. To improve write speeds, a pseudo-SLC cache is used, so bursts of incoming writes are processed more quickly. The M9P(G) Plus is rated for sequential read speeds of up to 3,400 MB/s and 2,200 MB/s write; random IOPS reach up to 340K for reads and 320K for writes.
At its launch, the SSD was priced at 145 USD. The warranty length is set to five years, which is an excellent warranty period. Plextor guarantees an endurance rating of 640 TBW, a typical value for consumer SSDs.
