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

Works well. Their site has a good version of Acronis software to transfer from the old drive.

the software that came with the drive made my life easier, I copied from a standard ssd drive the whole system as it is to this drive. (I know its not recommended to do it that way but Im lazy).

Since my five year old PC with an I7-6700 processor still had the computing power and a goof enough for photo hobbyist graphics card in it, I decided to use this 500GB SSD as my primary drive and my original 1TB HDD as my storage drive to speed up loading programs and throughput. Since the M.2 connector on my old motherboard was only a X1 speed, I also bought a PCIe adapter which had a X4 M.2 slot to use more of the SSDs speed potential. Installation was not difficult. Moving data was tedious. End result was that my PC runs much more quickly - hopefully postponing replacing the entire PC for a few more years.

The installation was easier than I expected, but I was not able to get the downloadable Acronis True Image software for Crucial to recognize the new drive while I was cloning the old SSD to the Crucial (I was using the Crucial in an external sidecar enclosure). I downloaded a freeware cloning software package that took care of that problem. Other than that, its currently in my Dell XPS 8920 and performing without any problems.

I used this drive to swap out the blade SSD in a 2017 27” iMac, used with an adapter for the stock iMac port on the logic board. Using the BlackMagic disk speed test I’m getting speeds between 2500-2800 read/write. Performance is as I expected. No concerns at all with formatting the drive or getting started with it in this setting. no sleep/wake issues in the iMac. Very happy overall.

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 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!

At first I didn’t think this ssd would make a difference in my laptop performance. When the ssd got delivered, I installed it in my laptop. Install was easy. I then did a speed test, after I had set everything to be working, and man, there was a big difference in speed. My laptop is now booting in seconds. Games load faster. The whole Windows os feels faster. I really recommend this ssd, it’s worth the 60$

Purchased this 2TB upgrade for my Lenovo Thinkpad X1 Carbon (6th Gen). Cloned my existing drive as is using Acronis then installed in computer. The Lenovo diagnostic and repair utility started automatically, then selecting the advanced options I was able to select the new drive as the primary boot device. After that everything worked fine. I didnt really expect much except increased capacity given the problems Intel has been having with chipset fixes through Microsoft updates, but in fact the increased speed over my original P2 is easy to see. Displays are more snappy, software loading is faster, software controls are more crisp. Overall, a great product!

There are two NVME slots in my laptop and this drive disappears randomly when installed in either slot. It is only 3 months old and used for mostly static storage not a boot drive. My other off-brand Inland SSD works fine installed in either slot. So much for brand name drives being more reliable. At least, when it works, the data is accessible and it is decently fast. Now it is time to find out how good or bad the warranty support is for a nearly $200 drive with a random hard to diagnose problem.
