"As an entry-level SSD, it should come as no surprise that the Plextor S3C isn't the fastest drive on the market today. Nevertheless, with its advanced technologies and high quality components, the S3C is a great choice for the consumer looking for an easy and affordable way to improve the performance of their existing computer. Thanks to Plextor's PlexNitro technology, the S3C performed relatively well throughout most of our tests. In our sequential read and write tests, the 256GB version of the drive was able to read at speeds as high as 563 MB/s and write at speeds in excess of 524 MB/s. It also had no problems holding its own against other TLC-based SSDs in our random write tests, producing more than 43,000 IOPS at low queue depths.”
