It's fast, works as advertised. I got two of these. In the PCIe - 5 slot, it does pretty good.



Fast and energy efficient.

I purchased this NVME SSD because the price was great and I wanted to upgrade in size. I use it as the boot drive for my Lenovo laptop which only supports NVME Gen 3 x4. Gen 4 would not have given me any more performance. I have been happy with the performance.

Was worried the heatsink would inpinge on the graphics card, and it was close! Check your measurements carefully. As a happy accident it is now catching air off the graphics card exhaust hopefully its a net cooling but who knows. The heat spreader that came with the MB was useless so I'm glad I got something with a HS already attached. sequential read only is even close to 14K, IOPS read though is 4.7 GB! really nice! And you can tell the speed when installing software or moving data.

This is the best SSD you can get, and it seems to work great.


Runs really fast and boots windows almost instantly

Works good.

The drive worked without any issues.

Did not use any sftw tools to eval performance, but the combination of upgrades breathed new life into my older I7 notebook.

Easy install

Easy install. Great read/write speed.

- Speeds are pretty good for QLC NAND I was hitting near the 7100 Mb/s running in PCIe 4-4x - Clean and tidy packaging and SSD is snug well protected in the plastic case - The heatsink is a nice matte black and looks great and also functions great - Thermal pad contact between the SSD and heatsink is snug with no visible gaps so thermal transfer is efficient - Pretty good warranty at 5 years - Included software (you have to hit the Crucial website to download)

FAST. Like, really fast. No hassle, just connects and works.
