Capacity and interface

The Crucial P510 is a 1TB internal SSD using the M.2 2280 form factor and a PCI-Express 5.0 interface with NVMe 2.0 protocol. It delivers sequential reads up to 11,000 MBps and writes up to 9,500 MBps. The drive uses 3D NAND and ships without a heatsink.

Who this suits

It suits laptop and desktop owners who want Gen5 NVMe speeds for gaming or demanding workloads and have a motherboard with a PCIe 5.0 M.2 slot. Buyers on platforms limited to PCIe 4.0 or 3.0 will not reach the rated throughput and should consider a lower-generation drive.

Deciding specification

The PCIe 5.0 interface is the single specification that determines whether this drive can deliver its rated 11,000 MBps read and 9,500 MBps write performance. Without a PCIe 5.0 M.2 slot the drive will operate at the lower speed of the host bus.

Questions about this item

Does the 11,000 MB/s read speed drop under sustained heavy use?

Sequential read reaches 11,000 MB/s and write reaches 9,500 MB/s; sustained workloads may run lower depending on system cooling and workload duration.

How much heat or noise does the drive produce during all-day operation?

The drive has no heatsink and no moving parts, so it is silent; heat output depends on the laptop or desktop airflow and whether an additional heatsink is added.

What must my system already have for this M.2 2280 drive to work?

An M.2 2280 slot that supports PCI-Express 5.0 with NVMe 2.0 protocol.
