PCI Express solid state drives may have passed the point where they couldn't be used as boot drives, but it still takes an updated BIOS to use them properly, and they need special drivers to run smoothly in Windows.

Not so for the MX-EXPRESS that Mach Xtreme has just formally launched.

The low-profile drive was made in such a way that it doesn't need any driver at all.

Yet even so, it has a capacity of up to 1 TB (128 GB, 256 GB, 512 GB or 1 TB) and a transfer speed of 850 MB/s while reading and 800 MB/s while writing.

On that note, the maximum random 4K performance is of 100,000 IOPS.

The Mach Xtreme MX-EXPRESS is compatible with PCIe 2x / 4x /16x interfaces and ships with a 2-year warranty. Sadly, no prices are known.
