The M6 is the first and currently the only 2.5" M6 series SSD of Plextor. It has a custom firmware, a Toshiba NAND flash memory and a Marvell controller. The M6S is available in 128GB, 256GB and 512GB capacities.
Our editors hand-pick related products using a variety of criteria: direct competitors targeting the same market segment, or devices that are similar in size, performance, or feature sets.
In its PCI Express form, we would pass on the M6e. We would be interested if it were sold as a standalone M.2 socket SSD at a more affordable price. For now, the M6S and M6M offer excellent performance and reliability, putting them among our most preferred SSD choices.
Using a new Marvell controller to pull up IOPS, Plextor releases the M6S notebook SSD which has very strong throughput and IOPS performance, along with a three year...
Samsung's 850 Pro SSDs are without a doubt the fastest SSDs of this moment. Given that this product does not seem to have any flaws, we heartily recommend it to those who are looking for the fastest possible SSD. The Vector 150 and AMD Radeon R7 SSDs...

Plextors M6S is one of those drives that we just want to like but it may have difficulty reaching headline-making status due to its relatively meager aspirations. Everyone pays plenty of attention to flagship SSDs and if surveys are any indication,...
While the M6S isn't Plextor's fastest or most feature packed SSD, it's a great solution for the consumer looking to boost the performance of their existing desktop or notebook computer. Similar to what we saw with the M6M, the M6S combines Marvell's...
After wrapping up all tests of the PX-256M6S (M6S) we all sat down and tried to figure out what Plextor did wrong this time over since although marginally better compared to the previous generation PX-256M5Pro model (M5 Pro) it didn't do so well against...
