Plextor PX-64M1S 2.5" 64GB SATA II Internal Solid State Drive (SSD)

Overall Rating is 0 but Newegg forces at least a 1 which should definitely be changed

I have written 1 review but now after dealing with their "support" I feel another one is in order. The plextor customer support absolutely refuses to provide the firmware to the drive. I informed them that I am a MS certified computer tech of 15+...

Picked this drive up for $85.00 Free shipping, great deal on a 64GB SD... But that's about all I can say good here

Would definitely advise people not to go with this or any other plextor drive. Reason is that this model of the drive is the first version, but the other version comes with Trim support, this drive has the same exact specs and it is only a matter of a...

It's still faster than HDD

After using this product for 6 months, it shows noticeable write performance degradation. I was wrong to expect that Plextor will release firmware update with TRIM support at some point. There is firmware and newer revision of this drive with TRIM but...

Slower SSD is a good match for older laptops and older operating systems (like Windows XP) ; SSD is in a brushed/cast metal case, not a cheap plastic shell

Writes appear to be limited to about 45 mb/s after a few weeks of use. This is due to the lack of TRIM support ; Plextor will not let you upgrade the firmware to the newest version (the new one includes TRIM)

cheap 85, fast, intalled win7 ultimate for less than 20 mins maybe 15 mins... nice design, very light compare to my old hdd. fast boot for win7 and opening apps

no trim support

Price per GB is really good ; Feels as fast as my more expensive SSDs ; Best looking hard drive I have ever seen

Plextor does not allow users to upgrade the drive firmware. To get the new firmware, you must mail the drive in for service when it slows down (due to not having support for TRIM) ; Perhaps if enough owners ask Plextor for the firmware, they will let...

It looks nice

Everything else. It is faster than my factory HD, but not by much. It does not work in my HP DV6000. As someone before me mentioned, you have to change BIOS settings to get this to work, but in my case, the BIOS does not let me do that. As a result,...

i thought all the hooplah about ssd drive was all a bunch of bull boy was i wrong

shhhh right

DOES support AHCI. Decent performance for an SSD, which is to say better than most 2.5" HD's. HD Tune states: 112 mb/s read average, 88mb/s write average. SSD Tweaker (search it) does a great job of setting up the computer for proper SSD performance....

Acronis software that ships with it can only clone FROM same size or smaller drives. Refused three times to properly clone Lenovo X100e, S10-3 or T43 ; Small size... But price to size this is better than most

Extremely low power consuption, fast compared to HDD, On a low spec laptop Ubuntu 10.4 beta boots in less than 10 sec, Windows 7 in 20 sec

BIOS on my laptop (Dell Vostro V13) refuses to recognize presence of this drive if set to AHCI mode, switching BIOS to ATA mode makes drive work but you lose some important features. No TRIM (didn't care as Linux is still not supporting that). I assume...
