Crucial P5 2TB 3D NAND NVMe Internal Gaming SSD, up to 3400MB/s - CT2000P5SSD8

My first NVME drive and I was blown away with the speed. Boot up is almost instant compared to my old SATA SSD. Wish this came with a heatsink.

first time getting an NVMe form factor and did not realize they do not come with a stand screw. you will have to purchase the stand separately if you did not get your mobos provided one (if provided at all). also worth pointing out that this is the same speed as any other SSD, but the form factor is different. an m.2 NVMe is what youre looking for if expecting faster speeds.

My sons gaming pc came with a 128GB SSD C: drive and a 1TB D: spinning drive. Well, hes managed to nearly fill both of the drives with games and associated stuff. This Crucial P5 1TB 3D NAND NVMe Internal SSD was a perfect upgrade for his C: drive - what a value! Easy to migrate with your choice of software - we used Macrium Reflect. Then out with the old and in with the new - painless upgrade. Ive used Crucial SSDs and memory for years - they are great and their website is highly recommended.

This NVME has been amazing for me and offers much faster speeds than my slow mechanical hard drive. It has been great for my use as my gaming drive and storing my larger games on there. Definitely recommend, especially if you can get it for the $80 like I did!

Read / Write speed is very good for this price and longlife time. Recommended.

Es una excelente forma de potenciar tu computador viejo o nuevo con disco HDD, de manera que permite inicializar el windows, juegos y demás programas de manera rápida y eficaz, disminuyendo tiempos de carga y tiempos de actualización.

Easy to install, ordered wrong one at first ,( you need the nvme not the m.2 -The m.2 will have 2 notches, the nvme has only one notch )you can see the old 250 gb on right & just loosen 8 screws on bottom of laptop, pry apart the bottom from the case carefully like opening a clam :) you see the empty spot upper right where it goes. just a pocket screwdriver that you use for the bottom plate screws is the same as the single one for the harddrive they dont strip if you have a good one. I used a flathead pocket screw driver to pry apart the case & bottom. if you really wanted you could upgrade the ram for $50 but i think 8 gb is fine for home & small buisness use. Shopping, school, using our stores remote cameras, teamviewer ect this laptop is great & the only ones avail right now are the 250 GB ones so this is a great upgrade! Go into the bios, disable secure boot & made a bootable zip from microsoft & then installed linux mint for dual boot.

For gaming and a boit drive, it works really well. I will note that the screw cut out is a little big so it could be tricky to install. Also, it is not a full size m.2 drive. So on my motherboard it was actually between the longest screw and the shortest.

NINGUN PROBLEMA, FACIL DE INSTALAR...ESO SI AL PRINCIPIO TODO PARECE MUY RAPIDO, LUEGO YA DA LA SENSACION DE SER UN DISCO NORMAL SSD DE 6 Gb/SEG...CREO QUE LA CLAVE ESTA EN EL TAL BUFER Q TIENEN ESTOS DISCOS Q UNA VEZ LLENO, YA TODO LO QUE QUEDE X FUERA FUNCIONARA A VELOCIDAD NORMAL, NO A LA ALTA VELOCIDAD Q PREGONA TENER...ES LA LETRA MENUDA Q LA MAYORIA DE GENTE NO SABE...DE TODOS MODOS, BUEN PRODUCTO, NO DA PROBLEMAS PARA NADA, ASI NO SEA TAN RAPIDO, TODOS SON IGUALES CON LO DEL TAL BUFER...

This PCIe Gen3 x4 drive has 3GB/s performance out of the box. After you download Crucial Storage Executive and enable Momentum Cache you will get PCIe Gen4 speeds. See my Crystal DiskMark results with NVMe and Default settings.
