The Plextor M6V solid-state drive is an affordable SSD with excellent performance
The editors didn't like
The drive has a short three-year warranty and comes devoid of any accessories or software
We threw the 256GB Plextor M6V into the fire with larger capacity drives half expecting it to get burned. We didn't expect to find the M6V would outperform the larger capacity drives, many powered by the same controller, but that's what happened. The M6...
The Plextor M6V solid-state drive is an affordable SSD with excellent performance
The drive has a short three-year warranty and comes devoid of any accessories or software
As one of the fastest budget solid-state drives, the Plextor M6V is a very good replacement SSD for any computer that still uses a traditional hard drive...
Available in 128GB, 256GB and 512GB capacities, Good sequential and random read and write performance, Performs equally well with compressible and incompressible data, Supports PlexTurbo caching technology, SATA 6Gb/s interface, Toggle Mode MLC NAND flash
Does not support DEVSLP, Does not support hardware based encryption, Lower capacity drives have slower sequential write speeds
As Plextor themselves point out, the M6V isn't the fastest SSD on the market. Instead, the drive was designed to provide the best possible value to the average consumer. And, by combining Silicon Motion's SM2246EN controller with Toshiba's 15nm Toggle Mod...

A viable alternative to lowcost Toshiba TLC flash SSDs hitting the market. Entrylevel MLC still exists, but this may be one of the last from the MLC era.
Although it's similar in price to the Samsung 850 EVO, the Plextor M6V can't compete. The M6V is slower and doesn't offer the same fiveyear warranty.
The Plextor M6V SSD competes with many of the low-cost drives on the market but just doesn't bring enough to the table to move past the low-cost SSD market leader. Plextor can turn that around by opening up support for the new advanced software applicat...

The value-oriented segment of the SSD market has a lot of great options at the moment for drives that don't have any critical weaknesses or major compromises relative to high-end SATA drives. This means that buying decisions will be driven almost entirely...
The Plextor M6V alone is a great entry level SSD, if you are looking for a storage option on a budget. Throw in PlexTurbo and you have the potential to reach some great theoretical speeds...

The Plextor M6V is a solid performing entry level SSD. Not all drives need to be flashy and show off throughput at 2.5 GB/s, for an average user you will be amazed at how a simple upgrade can change your life. This SSD is a value option, allowing you to m...

Performance wise the M6V sits where it needs to be aside from that 128GB model with pretty rubbish advertisied write speeds, face it the 128GB SSD era is over and everybody is buying a 256GB or higher capacity drive anyway. Starting at that value we can'...
According to our tests, the Samsung SM951 (NVMe) is the fastest SSD available. It is even faster than the 950 Pro, while it is a lot cheaper as well. Bear in mind that you miss out on official Samsung support in the form of warranty, Magician and firmware...
