The Silicon-Power P34A60 may not be the fastest or most feature packed PCIe SSD to come through the 'Labs. However, this compact, M.2 form factor drive provides plenty of bang for your buck. The P34A60 is powered by Silicon Motion's SM2263XT controller and is available with up to 2TB of Micron's 64-layer TLC 3D NAND flash. Combine this with a PCIe Gen3 x4 NVMe 1.3 interface and you have a reasonably priced drive capable of delivering up to four times the performance of your average SATA 6Gb/s SSD. In our sequential read and write tests, the 1TB version of the P34A60 was able to read at speeds as high as 2,030 MB/s and write at speeds in excess of 1,684 MB/s. cdrlabs.com
