PlexTurbo Benchmarks

PlexTurbo is a Plextor-exclusive and it works with all their SATA-based drives. It is essentially a RAM disk coupled with an intelligent caching engine. PlexTurbo can boost your Plextor SSD’s performance to a whole new level and it does so by utilising a little portion of your system memory. That portion will be used as a cache for hot files and also when writing to the drive.

Besides a huge performance boost, there is the added benefit of a long-lasting storage drive. The system will perform less writes on your drive and thereby increase its lifetime. Win-Win.
