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

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.

Love the speed and it bolted in easily once I found the screws. The issue I ran into will be specific to folks running a Asus B450 ROG board with LED lighting, or possibly any machine running the Lighting Service in Windows. Once I installed the drive and attempted to boot Windows (from another drive with this one installed) I got a BSOD and no boot. I knew this was due to the new drive, but the BSOD was non-specific. I found on Reddit that someone tried disabling the Lighting Service in services.msc. This worked for me from Safe Mode and allowed Windows to boot normally. I hope this helps someone else with a similar setup or issue.

Revived my laptop from the slowness of an HDD. It is easy to add to the m.2 socket. Also, I installed W10 again via USB. And before installing this NVME I updated the bios to the latest version that appears on the ASUS webpage

super fast and with space to spare. I got it mainly to remove the mechanical drive, as i had a 512GB SSD which i replaced with this, and because it is PCI express while my old ssd is sata

I purchased this SSD to put in a portable M.2 case so I could have some additional portable storage. I dont get full speeds b/c of the case I purchased but they are still more than acceptable (1500 MB read/write). Once the prices come down for USB4/Thunderbolt cases I will upgrade and increase the rest of the speed of this drive. I havent had any issues with the drive at all. I chose this drive b/c I have had a great experience with Crucial drives in the past.

This is my first M.2, upon reading reviews and doing a little research I decided on Crucial and I do NOT regret my decision!!! I’ll likely be picking up another one because what’s better than 1 2TB Crucial SSD??? 2 of them. I run my OS and my biggest game on mine. Use 2TB Seagate for storage.

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!

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.

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$

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.
