The P5 SSD from Crucial is quite impressive for a mainstream drive in terms of performance and even if it integrates TLC NAND, it can sustain high transfer rates for longer versus the budget oriented P2. After exhausting the 93GB of SLC cache, the transfe...
High performance, Reasonable price, High quality, High compatibility, Low operating temperature, 5-year warranty
Nothing worth to mention,
It's hard not to recommend the P5 SSD. It's fast and reliable, and that's what we expect from a high-quality SSD. Enthusiasts should be pretty satisfied with the performance of the Crucial P5 SSD, as it meets the expectations of both gamers and profession...
Available in 250GB, 500GB, 1TB and 2TB capacities, PCIe 3.0 x4 interface with NVMe protocol, Micron DM01B2 controller, Equipped with Micron 3D TLC NAND, Excellent sequential read and write performance, Good random read and write performance, Small M.2 228
Write speed drops when SLC cache is full, Gets hot under heavy workloads
Crucial has clearly put a lot of time and effort into their new P5 SSD. Instead of using an off the shelf solution from a company like Phison or Silicon Motion, this new drive has been engineered from the ground up. Everything from Micron's cutting-edge D...

With how long the P1 was around its surprising that Crucial, especially with their parent company being Micron, waited until now to jump into the higher end NVMe drive market. Especially now when people are getting ready for the jump to PCIe 4.0. I wo...
Excellent everyday performance, Great bang for buck
Will slow down during very long writes
The P5 is an excellent mid-range SSD that can run with the big drives in everyday performance, and even in all but the most demanding long transfers. It's a short-lister for sure. Nice job, Crucial.Note: When you purchase something after clicking links in...

The Crucial P5 NVMe enters the SSD market abit late. Don't get me wrong as it is a decent SSD. The reality is, however, that most companies have pushed forward with bigger and better, even in their PCIe 3.0 SSD sales. The reason for this is that, all but...
The Crucial P5 M.2 2280 NVMe SSD series is the first high performance NVMe drive for the consumer market for Micron. The performance of the drive seems to be solid and a premium NVMe drive from Crucial is certainly a welcomed addition to the market. That...
