This will make your PC or laptop whirlwinds!
When i ordered this product,i thought that will this work for my laptop or not, because this product doesn’t have any return policy. But, the ssd is working.
strukturiertes Chaos –
Ich verwende die SSD wie in der Überschrift beschrieben in einem zweiten M2-Slot auf meinem Mainboard. Dieser wird als PCIe 3.0 Steckplatz erkannt, sobald Steckplatz1 belegt ist ( in meinem Fall mit einer Samsung 980pro 1TB). Warum dann diese SSD? Nun, für das, für was sie vorgesehen ist, also den eigentlich reinen Lese-Betrieb, ist sie schnell genug. Für mich war der Preis bezüglich des gebotenen Speicherplatzes wichtiger als die Performance dieser SSD-Festplatte. Natürlich kann man für weit mehr Geld auch eine Samsung-SSD kaufen. Diese wird sich dann jedoch die meiste Zeit sehr langweilen. Die Installation erfolgte zügig und die Einbindung war in Windows über die Datenträgerverwaltung sehr schnell erledigt.Für219€ im Mai ein guter Kauf und massig Platz für alle Spielebibliotheken. 1 Stern Abzug wegen der verbauten Unzulänglichkeiten und dem fehlenden Cache, dennoch eine solide SSD in diesem Formfaktor.Bitte nicht kaufen wenn viele Datentransfers ausgeführt werden. Der fehlende Cache bremst dann doch heftig. Dafür ist die Platte nicht gedacht und die negativen Rezensionen stammen nur von der Uninformiertheit der Käuferschaft. Ich kann nicht ins unterste Regal vom Preis her greifen und High-Performance erwarten, das passt einfach nicht zusammen. Da liegen dann einfach Bereitschaft auf Mehrinvestition und Leistungserwartung weit von einander entfernt.

I installed this into my laptop to expand storage for gaming. So far I have mainly been playing GTA5, 7 Days to Die, and have popped on ARK a couple times. I have had no issues, my games are loading/running great. I am not the guy that will be checking the actual stats on it’s operation, but I am very happy with the performance. Biggest drawback is that these things are always getting more expensive, it’s not the cheapest. I am happy to have the extra 4TB however and it is working great, so no serious regrets on this purchase, just wishing it was a little cheaper.

Product is as per expectation
Decent product, write speeds is a touch below than advertised but read speeds are pretty good. “Crucial” thing is that the product is original and in good condition.

Best “Value For Money” SSD
SSDs are seeing immense price fall in 2023 with me scoring this Gen 3 Nvme 1TB SSD for just Rs. 3,900.I did some testing and you can see (photo) :Sequential Read – 2,445 MB/sSequential Write – 2,500 MB/sWhich is kinda low considering their promise for 3,500 MB/s Read Write but it will get the work done.Playing Forza Horizon 5, Call Of Duty MW2 (2022), Naraka BladePoint with superb load times. Definitely recommended for regular usage and gaming.Content creators might need Gen 4 for even more speed.

Well this works as promised and is fast enough for casual gaming.
I have an HP Pavilion Ryzan 7 5800H laptop with 16 GB ram and an RTX 3050 graphics card for perspective.The SSD is smooth and clocks at 45* C while playing PayDay2 at max settings and the read and write speeds also are not disappointing. In a constant temp of 45 and running PayDay2 in the background, it has a read speed of 1GB transfer test 2.7 G and a write of 3 G at a sequential 128kb single thread, the scores are the same for the 4Gb tests.I aimed to test the SSD performance in a gaming situation, which works surprisingly well.I recommend this product because it works well on my system and performs well on tests.

Excellent product.
The first thing I find was that this company made products which are not from China, rather the products are fron Made in Malaysia.Recently the company (Mexico as its Origination) signed an MoU with India govt to setup its production facility in India too. Soon we shall get Made in India tag rrom this company.Anyways, this is an old renowned company with trusted customers all over world.Samsung is little better for its DRAM feature. Leaving it aside, you can definitely opt for it.Just GO FOR IT !!!

Fast, affordable, what’s not to like
Easy recommendation for anyone wanting fast storage for their OS or for the latest games. It’s amazing that NVME drives have gotten so affordable now, this one is a pretty fast PCI-E 3.0 SSD and more reliable than other budget drives.Note that it isn’t top-end so it doesn’t include a proper heatsink, or the highest transfer speeds that PCI-E 4/5 NVMEs that are now in the market offer, but it’s still pretty darn fast and I doubt any but the most power users would notice the difference. As far as gaming is concerned it makes no difference. I also never had trouble with overheating.I liked it so much that I also bought a 1TB version of this drive, and I’m running both on my HDD-less build.If you’re looking for alternate, better options I’d recommend the Seagate Firecuda, or the PCIE5 version of this. Just make sure your motherboard/chipset supports PCIE 5 – if it doesn’t it’ll simply run at the highest possible bandwidth available though.

Esta unidad de estado sólido te llega dentro de una pequeña caja de cartón con fotografías impresas. La unidad viene protegida dentro de un blíster de plástico, con el tornillo para fijarlo al puerto del ordenador. Incluye un breve folleto de instrucciones que se limita a unos enlaces a la página oficial.No es “Plug and Play”, una vez que lo instalas tienes que nombrar la unidad y darle formato para que el ordenador lo reconozca. Yo tuve un contratiempo al hacerlo, ya que a pesar de actualizar el driver en la página web de Crucial, no lograba que el ordenador lo reconociese. Contacté con el servicio técnico de la marca, a través de su web, y utilizando el chat, un técnico me ayudó a resolver mi problema. En un momento tenía ya la unidad de almacenamiento funcionando.Lo normal es que una vez que lo coloques el ordenador no lo reconozca. En ese caso deberás abrir la herramienta “administrador de discos”. Si no la encuentras con ese nombre puedes buscarla como “crear y formatear particiones del disco duro”. Con esta herramienta le das nombre a la unidad, la formateas y ya la tienes lista para almacenar información.Una vez que el ordenador reconoce el disco, el funcionamiento es muy bueno. Es lógico que funcione rápido porque es una unidad NMVe SSD PCIe de 4ª generación (más rápida que la Gen 3). Alcanza velocidades de lectura /escritura muy altas (hasta 5000 MB/s).Yo la estoy utilizando como unidad de almacenamiento. En esta unidad almaceno las fotografías y archivos pesados con los que trabajo, mientras que los programas los tengo en otra unidad NMVe (la misma del sistema operativo). De este modo consigo tener el disco dedicado a programas libre de archivos, haciendo que corran más rápido.A pesar de trabajar y guardar los archivos en otra unidad diferente, no noto la diferencia a cuando trabajaba con archivos en el mismo disco duro.Como conclusión, es una unidad NMVe SSD con muy buena relación calidad / precio, y un rendimiento excelente. Espero que funcione así durante mucho tiempo.

Je vous épargne le crystaldiskmark, il y en a déjà pleins. Le mien est dans les clous.Rien à dire sur la lecture, c’est excellent. Il semble moins chauffer que le Crucial P5 TLC ou le Sabrent TLC.Comme prévu : l’écriture est excellente jusqu’à un certain point.Au-delà de 2To rempli, la vitesse commence à descendre copieusement.A partir de 3To la vitesse tombe à 80Mo/s.Il y a même des trous à 40Mo/s ponctuels. De temps en temps la vitesse fait un pic bref à 300Mo/s puis redescend à 80Mo/s…Tout cela est “normal” : c’est la QLC sans cache.Le Crucial P3 plus utilise 25% de l’espace libre comme cache SLC.Plus le disque se rempli, plus le cache est petit, plus on constate la véritable vitesse d’écriture des SSD NVME à mémoire QLC : faible !Certaine marques embarquent un véritable cache SLC additionnel qui amortie l’effet QLC… lisez bien les tests avant votre achat pour que cela corresponde à vos besoins.Je me mettrai pas mon système d’exploitation sur ce disque, car les nombreuses écritures constantes pénaliseraient les performances.En revanche, pour installer un jeu ou stocker des données : ça va, car on sollicitera plutôt la lecture ; qui est très bonne.C’est le prix qui rend attractif la mémoire QLC (2x moins chère que la TLC à capacité identique).

Best SSD
I bought p3 500gb variant for rs 3000 only.I am a normal pc user. I play games and use some editing softwares.After installing the SSD, I get to feel a whole new experience . Now my pc reboots within 30 second. Copy and paste speed are really good too. Chrome starts super fast immediately after reboot.If you are willing to use SSD for the 1st time and don’t want to purchase some expensive high speed SSD, go for this SSD. It gives high transfer rate at really good price.Make sure your motherboard has M.2 slot😜

Unable to detect SSD? Funny but use “mdsched.exe”.
MS Windows:I have got this nvme m.2 P3 and i was unable to find it anywhere in the Disk Management (“diskmgmt.msc”) or Device Manager (“devmgmt.msc”), neither as RAW/unallocated, nor Unknown Device. Although i was able to detect in BIOS (mine is basic for current usage – 07WP95), so i did not give up:Funny it may sound, no repair app. worked except for Windows Memory Diagnostic (Win+R -> “mdsched.exe”) -> Restart now and check (recommended) -> Let it run for a while (mine took a 30 minutes i guess, i did not keep track of) -> after reboot you will find it (choose GPT in diskmgmt.msc) RAW and use it however you wish.For linux users:I did not try this there (coz i quit distro hopping also) but a year before i was able to find partitions (by Ventoy) which are not visible in Windows (anywhere), they are visible in my favorite utility: GParted (not sure if it were available on Windows though) use GPT table here as well.

Usato per incrementare la capacità di SSD su PC, è stato necessario scaricare il software gratuito per clonare l’SSD esistente anche se di capacità inferiore. Aumentate di un po’ le prestazioni.

Good seed up for people with budget
I have a laptop (DELL G15) that comes pre-installed with a gen 3 SSD but it was just 512 GiB I want to increase capacity of laptop so I bought it as it was cheaper and it is quite a bit faster than my old SSD.If you’re on last gen platform like 11th gen cpu and your motherboard support Gen 4 than you can go for it but according to my experience with them you wont feel any speed up in game loding aur anything else instead it will feel same as Gen 3So if you want to be future proof and you don’t have a tight budget go for Gen 4But if you want to save some money go for Gen 3 SSDAnd at last if any nerd is looking for DRAM SSD dude you wont find any in this price range that are good .

Massive speed difference
The media could not be loaded.
Superb product. I purchased P3 500GB and 8GB DDR4 crucial ram 3200 MHz. Massive difference in speed. My product- HP Pavillion 15bc406tx used to boot up very slow, around 3-4 minute. But now only 30 seconds. You can also see the speed mark by crystalDiskMark. Note – Every HP Pavillion laptop have additional SSD slot and 2 ram slots, so pavilion users need not worry about your old HDD. Btw I have also attached the photo of old HDD. I went to local repair shop, he took 3 hrs and 400 rupees to install SSD and HDD, copy windows and activate MS office 2019 by pirated key. Your all softwares and apps will be deleted therefore note them before upgrade. You need not to worry about antivirus, can you activate it again after the upgradation (you won’t have to purchase new key). Now BEAST MODE on in my pavilion 15. I have even tried opening 300+ tabs in chrome but the ram is so huge that probably I can never use all the 16 GB. Many people faced a problem that they don’t get the SSD screw, but in my case, there was no issue, screw was delivered with SSD.

Excellent for upgrading from Old Hard disks
Used in my old Lenovo Yoga-520. Left RAM at default 4gb and the laptop already feels new. Booting, loading files and day to day tasks have become quite fast. Feels like using any new decent laptop. I don’t game or video edit where RAM will come I to question but for daily use and some multimedia and browsing, this has improved the laptop.Big plus: Comes with the screw to mount it on motherboard.

Performance is good
I was experiencing very slow startup and hanging issues due to insufficient RAM AND 100% DISK ISSUE. Installed a 8 GB RAM and this SSD in my Acer Aspire laptop.Good performance as expected, startup time reduced by 5 times and good response with other apps.

My pc (Ryzen 2400 G in asrock a340 hdv mobo was getting frozen with ssd inserted. Tried to change bios settings but all in vain. I gave up and tried to return it. But return did not get through. And i am glad that it didn’t.Then I updated the bios and bingo!!!That solved the mystery. Now the system is lightening fast. With gpt disk type and 4 drives, i installed windows 10 pro and the result is awesome. The booting and shut down time is less than 10 seconds. My son is enjoying high end games without a lag. Its really v fast. You can go for it. Its time to replace those old slow hard disks.

Le SSD Crucial sera dans un boîtier externe USB pour lui donner une seconde vie et servira pour l’extension du stockage de la PS4 vu qu’il n’a pas été reconnu sur la carte mère MSI PRO H510M-B à jour couplé à un i3-10100.Le SSD Crucial a été cloné sur un autre SSD mais au format SATA via l’ancienne carte mère Asus H97 Plus pour qu’il soit reconnu par la MSI.

Preso quello da 1TB per una cinquantina di euro. Lo uso per il sistema operativo e i programmi principali. Prima usavo un normale SSD da 250GB Sandisk. In generale risulta più veloce di un paio di secondi o più nel lancio dei programmi, a seconda del peso dell’applicazione. Tutto qui. Non vi cambierà la vita. Non si nota la differenza nemmeno abilitando la momentum cache.Ho notato che rispetto al normale SSD, la velocità di trasferimento da un HDD meccanico a quello NVME è lentissima.Quindi se con gli hard disk siete a posto e siete indecisi se spendere il grano con un NMVE o un altro componente del pc (cpu, gpu o ram), vi suggerisco di preferire quest’ultimo.La vera differenza i dischi NVME la fanno quando si usa il computer per fare grafica, musica o video editing. Ma in quel caso conviene usare un disco per il sistema e i programmi, uno come cache e un regolare SSD per i progetti: quindi è un setup specifico.Se col computer ci navigate o giocate non noterete differenze.Il disco è arrivato nuovo, mai acceso prima. La velocità rispecchia quella delle specifiche.Allego uno screenshot con momentum cache OFF e disco occupato al 15% e uno con momentum cache ON e disco all’8%.

It’s good !!!
Laptop Model: Asus F15 i5 11th GenRAM: 16GBAs a hardcore gamer, the installation was not easy on my laptop on my second SSD NVME slot because it wasn’t easy to push the SSD inside the slot. Although it went easily in the other one where the primary ssd was seated. Don’t know why?Anyways. The laptop took some time to adjust the Crucial SSD as i tried to transfer a 146 GB game on to the Crucial SSD via Steam. It took approximately 1 hr to do so and that to with freeze-issues in the middle while doing so. I had to restart my laptop and check if it was successfuly done or not. After verifying the files. Some files were missing with approximate size of 37 gb… Don’t know why ?Anyways. I will try and run the game and post an updated version of this review soon and run GTA V as well later on and let everyone know how it goes.🚫 Apart from that the handling of the electronic part was not good while delivering as you can see the box being bent over several sides.Seller please do not handle electronic item badly. Cover them in proper cardboard boxes and deliver them safely without any damages to the box as well.

Wayne HardmanWayne Hardman –
For 2 TB you can’t really go wrong. Read performance is interface limited, so no complaints there. Write performance is good but for very big writes (dozens of GBs) where the pSLC cache has to be committed and this hurts the transfer rate.Doesn’t run warm, doesn’t throttle. For the so-inclined, it will work fine on a PCIe slot adapter in x4, x2 or x1 slots.An absolutely ideal secondary SSD for things like storing games on, where its lower write performance doesn’t matter.

Value for money.
This is really good 1TB M.2 SSD for the price. I am using it as boot drive in my laptop Dell Inspiron 7577 and the speed is nice, boot timing is around 10 secs because I have some programs that start during boot. When I freshly installed windows boot time was 4.5 secs, so boot time may vary from system to system.I got a box in which there was the M.2 and a screw with some documentation. I won’t post something like the transfer speed of drive screenshot because that varies from file to file.I will recommend this M.2 to someone who just want to upgrade the storage from HDD to M.2 or even if you want to go from SATA SSD to M.2. It will be a good drive if you want to use it as a game drive. If your priority is speed then I will recommend you go for something which has 5500 MB/s or more.

Good foe gaming, great warranty Experience
I bought it for these new games with strict ssd requirements. Its pretty good for that atleast for now this is all the speed you need for gaming , compared to a top of the line gen4 ssd the difference is minimal to nonexistent, even in direct storage enabled games like ratchet and clank its practicaly the same. My drive did fail after a month which happens for any electronic device , the warranty service was quick and hassle free , i got a replacement in a week.

Fast, affordable, what’s not to like
Easy recommendation for anyone wanting fast storage for their OS or for the latest games. It’s amazing that NVME drives have gotten so affordable now, this one is a pretty fast PCI-E 3.0 SSD and more reliable than other budget drives.Note that it isn’t top-end so it doesn’t include a proper heatsink, or the highest transfer speeds that PCI-E 4/5 NVMEs that are now in the market offer, but it’s still pretty darn fast and I doubt any but the most power users would notice the difference. As far as gaming is concerned it makes no difference. I also never had trouble with overheating.I liked it so much that I also bought a 1TB version of this drive, and I’m running both on my HDD-less build.If you’re looking for alternate, better options I’d recommend the Seagate Firecuda, or the PCIE5 version of this. Just make sure your motherboard/chipset supports PCIE 5 – if it doesn’t it’ll simply run at the highest possible bandwidth available though.

J’ai récemment acheté le disque SSD interne NVMe P3 de 1 To de Crucial et voici mon avis sur ce produit.Points positifs :Performances impressionnantes : Ce SSD offre des vitesses de lecture et d’écriture allant jusqu’à 3500 Mo/s, ce qui permet de bénéficier d’un chargement rapide des applications et des fichiers. Les temps de démarrage sont considérablement réduits, ce qui améliore globalement les performances de mon système.Installation facile : Le format M.2 PCIe Gen3 facilite l’installation du disque, que ce soit sur une carte mère de bureau ou un ordinateur portable compatible. Il suffit de le brancher sur le port M.2 approprié et de le fixer avec une vis.Capacité généreuse : Avec 1 To d’espace de stockage, j’ai amplement de place pour mes jeux, mes fichiers multimédias et mes logiciels. Cela évite d’avoir à jongler avec plusieurs disques durs et améliore la gestion des données.Points négatifs :Fiabilité incertaine : Bien que les performances soient excellentes, j’ai rencontré quelques problèmes de fiabilité avec ce disque SSD. J’ai remarqué des ralentissements occasionnels et des erreurs de lecture/écriture. Il est possible que ce soit un problème isolé, mais cela soulève des doutes quant à la fiabilité à long terme de ce produit.Chauffe excessive : Lorsque je sollicite intensivement le disque, j’ai constaté une élévation significative de la température. Il est recommandé de surveiller attentivement les températures et d’assurer une bonne ventilation pour éviter tout risque de surchauffe.En conclusion, le Crucial Disque SSD interne NVMe P3 de 1 To M.2 PCIe Gen3 offre des performances rapides et une installation facile, mais sa fiabilité à long terme reste incertaine. Il est important de surveiller les températures et de considérer le prix avant de prendre une décision d’achat. Si vous recherchez des performances maximales, ce SSD peut être une option intéressante, mais si la fiabilité est votre priorité absolue, il pourrait être préférable de chercher d’autres alternatives sur le marché.

With game install sizes becoming bigger and bigger, having a decent amount of storage is super helpful to not have to juggle what I have installed at any one point. Drive itself is very fast, it’s only gen3 but unless you’re running disc benchmarks or until direct storage becomes a widespread thing in games, I highly doubt 99% of people would be able to tell the difference in speed between it and a gen4 drive. Quick storage without breaking the bank.

I bought this Crucial and a Samsung 970 Evo plus at the same time (both 1Tb). I ran some speed tests on them in order to decide which would be the drive I use for my laptop and which would be my spare. This Crucial drive was fast but a little inconsistent with it’s speeds. Therefore the Samsung won. The crucial overall was fractionally slower than the Samsung in my tests. It was also a lot more inconsistent speed wise than the Samsung. Good value for money though.

1TB for less than 4700 Is A Steal!
I received the product within six hours of placing the order, which was remarkably fast. Upon seeing the price, I initially had reservations as it seemed too good to be true.Thus far, I am satisfied with its performance. The games load quickly, alleviating my concerns about my Windows SSD, which only had a capacity of 25 GB and was constantly filling up.The only noteworthy concern, although it may not affect everyone, is that the screw provided with the product did not align with my motherboard. Thankfully, my motherboard had a clamp that allowed me to secure it in place.However, the main difficulty I encountered was the installation process itself. Trying to install the product while my AIO cooler and GPU were still in place proved to be challenging.I acknowledge that this may have been my own oversight, as I should have likely removed the GPU before proceeding with the installation. It is important to note that this installation difficulty is not specific to this particular product, but rather a common issue experienced with all m.2 NVME drives. Thus, it is not a flaw specific to the product itself.

✅PRO✔️Fa il suo a prezzo contenuto.✔️Velocità come dichiarata.✔️Crucial una garanzia in quanto a SSD.⛔CONTRO❌A poca differenza di prezzo è possibile prendere un SSD NVMe 4.0.🔍 Crucial una garanzia in quanto a dispositivi di archiviazione, l’SSD si comporta perfettamente ed opera alle velocità dichiarate.Il dubbio nel 2023 è che con circa 10-15€ in più è possibile prendere un 4.0 della stessa capienza. Personalmente ho preferito il 3.0 dovendolo usare come disco secondario backup per film-musica, e pertanto non avrei tratto alcun beneficio da un 4.0.Consigliato se vi serve un SSD per backup, come principale invece vi consiglio di spendere 10€ in più e prendere un 4.0, se avete una scheda madre compatibile, naturalmente.

The ssd was used when building a gaming pc (motherboard) as seen in image. I did some testings to it once it was installed and I was very impressed as it was very fast and it responded rapidly up to 3500 mb/s. It also has encrypted hardware which is very good and a lot of storage where I used to download many games. However one disadvantage is the ssd can increase in temperature when device is running so what I recommend is by adding a fan near the ssd to keep it cool ( which is what I have done). It is also very easy to install and very good for the price. I would recommend if your on a budget

I wasn’t sure if 5GB/s was theoretical or what to expect so I looked at the current Samsung drive I had which was 1TB in size… looking at the benchmarks in the reviews, the Crucial one was scoring about 3000MB/s for the Plus model in real world usage. The benchmarks on my Samsung drive was less than that, so this seemed like a safe update for me. I needed the storage and didn’t want to rely on external disks which can get annoying at times (just on portability and cloud apps, etc). I bought an NVME enclosure and bought EaseUS license for a year to clone the disk. This unit comes with software to clone the disk from what the instructions said but I read that after buying EaseUS license….I had about 300GB used on the disk I had and in about 25 minutes, the disk was cloned. I shut down, put the new drive in, and booted up… no issues and it seemed to go a bit faster than before. So for $225, I got more storage and a slight bump in speed. It wasn’t $400… a more affordable $225. But I didn’t get the P3 model… I got the P3 PLUS model which has more speed than the P3 and it only about $40 more… seems like a good investment considering the results.So get this… definitely… but get the PLUS model. $40 can be a lot for people but if you’re going to spend $200 on a disk, spend an extra $40 and get a bit of a boost in speed.

It’s my first ever SSD and I’m very impressed by the improved performance of my otherwise slow HDD laptop. My laptop is now faster and more reliable. The installation is also easy, you just need to look for the PCle nVMe slot on the motherboard and insert it in its place properly. Your PC might not detect it in the first go because it’ll be unformatted. I was able to install the OS on this by removing my old HDD, later you can add back your old drive for secondary usage.

The Crucial P3 500GB M.2 PCIe Gen3 NVMe Internal SSD delivers impressive speed and reliable performance, earning it a solid 4 out of 5 stars. With speeds of up to 3500MB/s, it provides a significant boost to system responsiveness and data transfer rates. The M.2 form factor allows for easy installation, making it compatible with a wide range of systems. The SSD’s reliability has been commendable, providing consistent performance without any major issues. However, it falls slightly short of a perfect rating due to a higher price point compared to some competitors. Overall, the Crucial P3 500GB SSD is an excellent choice for those seeking fast and reliable storage performance.

Worth the price
Wort at this price point along with 5 year warrenty. Build quality is okay. Compared with WD, build quality is little less.

The write speed at this price is just amazing!. I am also using WD BLACK SN770 which costs double but same speed. Also, a screw comes within the package.

Best “Value For Money” SSD
SSDs are seeing immense price fall in 2023 with me scoring this Gen 3 Nvme 1TB SSD for just Rs. 3,900.I did some testing and you can see (photo) :Sequential Read – 2,445 MB/sSequential Write – 2,500 MB/sWhich is kinda low considering their promise for 3,500 MB/s Read Write but it will get the work done.Playing Forza Horizon 5, Call Of Duty MW2 (2022), Naraka BladePoint with superb load times. Definitely recommended for regular usage and gaming.Content creators might need Gen 4 for even more speed.

Massive speed difference
The media could not be loaded.
Superb product. I purchased P3 500GB and 8GB DDR4 crucial ram 3200 MHz. Massive difference in speed. My product- HP Pavillion 15bc406tx used to boot up very slow, around 3-4 minute. But now only 30 seconds. You can also see the speed mark by crystalDiskMark. Note – Every HP Pavillion laptop have additional SSD slot and 2 ram slots, so pavilion users need not worry about your old HDD. Btw I have also attached the photo of old HDD. I went to local repair shop, he took 3 hrs and 400 rupees to install SSD and HDD, copy windows and activate MS office 2019 by pirated key. Your all softwares and apps will be deleted therefore note them before upgrade. You need not to worry about antivirus, can you activate it again after the upgradation (you won’t have to purchase new key). Now BEAST MODE on in my pavilion 15. I have even tried opening 300+ tabs in chrome but the ram is so huge that probably I can never use all the 16 GB. Many people faced a problem that they don’t get the SSD screw, but in my case, there was no issue, screw was delivered with SSD.

Meine erste MvME SSD. Der Einbau ins Mainboard war etwas knifflig, da in eingebautem Zustand das Mainboard nicht wirklich leicht zugängig ist. Nach Ausbau der Grafikkarte ging es dann aber. Für die winzige Schraube zur Befestigung sollte man aber einen magnetischen Schraubendreher verwenden. Ich habe meinen PC mehrmals in der Luft schütteln müssen, um die Schraube im Gehäuse wieder zu finden. Was ich nicht verstehe ist, weshalb diese SSD`s nicht von Haus aus mit Kühlkörper verkauft werden.Ansonsten ist das Teil aber super schnell – im Vergleich zu mechanischen Festplatten und die Platzersparnis ist auch nicht zu verachten.

Bought it to add to my HP Elite laptop from 2015 and turns out it doesn’t fit the m.2 slot on my laptop. Not sure what version fits. Planning to get an external housing to use it now as an external drive. Will update when that happens

Fits Perfectly my budget
A good product for my budget build on a ASUS Prime A320M-K motherboard. Installed Windows 11 and response is fast and good. I/O is good and I dont see any unwanted throttle occurring on I/O when doing large transfers. Read/Write of data is fast.

Gave my 4yr old laptop new life! Insane performance.
My laptop had i5 8th gen but took 5 mins to boot and open up! Well fortunately it had a slot for SSD. So i went for this and now it takes upto 15 sec to fully boot and open up! The only issue was the screw they provided was kinda small for the hole so I used a tape so the screw doesn’t flicker out… But wasn’t a major issue!!!Go for this!

My first ssd and it’s pretty much worth it!!
I’ve been using only hdd so far and I decided to buy my first ssd, and I have to decide between wd and crucial, My friend suggested me crucial over wd coz of the life and build quality by his experience of using both and I decided to go for crucial, So I got the 500gb ssd for 3170 Rs, its 2993 Rs now, Go for appario retail limited store, and installed it myself in my gaming laptop, and installed the os and other softwares in the ssd and I had to say, I can pretty much feel the difference in literally everything, From booting up my laptop to the launching speed of all the softwares and the copying speed from one partition to other, So as you can see the attached picture, The read speed is upto 3487.24 which is like mentioned 3500 mb per second but the write speed is only upto 1904.26 but they mentioned 3000 mb per second, When I asked my friend, he said this is the atmost write speed we will get, BTW its better than wd write speed which is 1200 mb per second which is same price or costlier than this (500 gb ssd). So pretty much it is a very good ssd and worth the price. Go for it.

Best SSD
I bought p3 500gb variant for rs 3000 only.I am a normal pc user. I play games and use some editing softwares.After installing the SSD, I get to feel a whole new experience . Now my pc reboots within 30 second. Copy and paste speed are really good too. Chrome starts super fast immediately after reboot.If you are willing to use SSD for the 1st time and don’t want to purchase some expensive high speed SSD, go for this SSD. It gives high transfer rate at really good price.Make sure your motherboard has M.2 slot😜

I wanted to upgrade the 1tb SSD to 4tb on a Lenovo x1 Carbon Gen 10. So I downloaded the Acronis software from the Crucial website to clone my source drive to the new 4tb SSD drive, with the target drive (the new SSD) in a USB-C enclosure. Everything seemed to be going well until my pc crashed after a required startup with just 9 minutes left for the clone. After waiting 10 minutes with just “Lenovo” on my screen, in sheer desperation I went to the Acronis website for trouble-shooting. There I read that it often happened that it would crash when cloning an SSD in a USB enclosure. Frustrated, I looked for a suitable alternative and found EaseUS Todo. After purchasing and downloading their cloning software, everything went smoothely without any hitches–EASY PEASY! Even on the USB-C SSD enclosure! No issues! When my pc could recognize the cloned drive, I then went to install it. No problems whatsoever. Everything started up right away and, best of all, the new 4tb SSD was an exact clone of the original 1tb with no partitions (I didn’t want any). I’ll let you know how the new 4tb SSD holds up after I’ve been using it for awhile. Until I’ve had it for awhile, I’m keeping the original in a safe place.

Excellent product.
The first thing I find was that this company made products which are not from China, rather the products are fron Made in Malaysia.Recently the company (Mexico as its Origination) signed an MoU with India govt to setup its production facility in India too. Soon we shall get Made in India tag rrom this company.Anyways, this is an old renowned company with trusted customers all over world.Samsung is little better for its DRAM feature. Leaving it aside, you can definitely opt for it.Just GO FOR IT !!!

Slow, endurance low but runs colder
In Orico USB Enclosure with rtl9210b bridge chip, P3 write 800 read 450, whereas SN570 read/write are 950/860. P3 is slower but does not get as hot as SN570. SN570 requires good cooling. P3 runs significantly colder so any enclosure would work fine. P3 uses QLC instead of TLC so endurance is less. Both are similarly priced. Tested with USB 3.1 gen 2 10GBps enclosure, connected to Macmini M2 thunderbolt port. I recently bought both. I will be using P3 for storage and backup. Blackmagic disk test was used.

Perfect 500gb M.2 at Best price…
Best in class M.2, I think 2999 is the lowest price history for this product, worth the money. 5 years limited warranty. However I got open seal package. Before installing I check and register the warranty. After recognized by crucial website, then I installed it.

Die Crucial P3 Plus hat in der 2TB Version meine Samsung 870 Evo Plus 1TB ersetzt. Zuvor war ich schon von der 4TB Version ganz angetan. Leider habe ich dann nach dem Einbau gelesen, dass die Geschwindigkeiten nur beim Beschreiben der 1 von 4 Bits ?richtig? so schnell sind, danach werden die P3 Plus deutlich langsamer. Auch ein Löschen der Daten soll da nicht helfen.Das zweite Problem ist der fehlende DRAM. Werden nun viele Daten auf einmal kopiert z.b. über 10GB bricht die Übertragungsrate komplett ein und man ist im SATA Bereich. Auch hier ist der fehlende DRAM schuld. Wieso wurde der weggelassen? Wenn man schon günstigere Speicherzellen verwendet.Naja nun ist sie eingebaut. Aktuell bin ich zufrieden, bis auf den Klon Vorgang von der Samsung zur Crucial, der dann doch länger gedauert hat. Bei Spielen sind die Ladezeiten super da merke ich keine Verschlechterung. Auch die Bootzeit ist gefühlt gleich geblieben. Mir war jedoch mehr Speicher zu einem guten Preis wichtig. Zudem gibt es von Crucial die Acronis True Image Version. Diese kann aber nur mit NVMEs von Crucial genutzt werden. 😉

Highly recommend
Its just the best SSD I have seen, it boots in 12 sec compared to HDD which takes 1 min. Its faster and above all it cost below 3000rs which way less than offline market.

Value for money
Got mine at Rs.4099/- .Now coming to the performance, better than my expectations , data transfer is around 1.2-1.6gbps which is good .The only issue that I assume can come is heating because there is no heatsink provided so if required then you have to add on your own.Installed on my Asus Tuf Gaming A-15 2021 Ryzen 7 4800H and RTX 3050 and performs great.So if you are looking forward to buy this you can 👍🏻.

Le disque est excellent, les débits en lecture et écriture sont très bon et un peu superieurs au Samsung 970evo qu’il remplace. J’ai rarement eu de problème avec les SSD Crucial.J’ai enlevé une étoile car la boîte n’était pas scellée (petite étiquette de sécurité coupée) et j’ai donc perdu du temps pour vérifier que le disque était bien conforme en performance, que le numéro de série correspondait a la boîte, et surtout que le disque n’avait pas déjà été utilisé (les utilitaires de fabriquant – ici Crucial storage executive – permettent de vérifier cela).

Better than samsung 980 normal ssd
To my surprise this is performing better than the sasmung 980 I have. Obviously 980 pro is better but it’s double the price.Crucial has nailed with the price to performance ratio foe this ssd.

Faster than advertized
Remember to install crucial storage executive and activate momentum cache, it drastically increases the speed. For me the ssd was giving around 1700mbps but after activating momentum cache the speed jumped to more than 5000mbps.
