2TB PCIe 5.0 NVMe SSD

The Crucial T705 CT2000T705SSD3 is a 2TB internal solid-state drive built on PCI-Express 5.0 x4 with NVMe protocol. It uses Micron 232-layer TLC NAND to reach sequential reads up to 14,500 MBps and writes up to 12,700 MBps. The M.2 2280 form factor fits standard desktop slots.

Best for Gen5 platforms needing maximum throughput

This drive suits builders with Intel Core 13-14th Gen or AMD Ryzen 7000 CPUs and a motherboard heatsink ready for the copper-clad label. Random performance reaches 1,550,000 read IOPS and 1,800,000 write IOPS. Systems limited to PCIe 4.0 or lacking M.2 cooling should consider a Gen4 alternative.

Requires motherboard heatsink for sustained speed

The T705 ships without a heatsink and relies on the motherboard's M.2 thermal solution to transfer heat via its copper-clad label. Without adequate cooling the controller will throttle, reducing the headline 14,500 MBps read and 12,700 MBps write figures. Verify your board includes a compatible M.2 heatsink before purchase.

Questions about this item

Does the CT2000T705SSD3 include a heatsink or do I need to use the motherboard one?

The drive ships without a heatsink and relies on the motherboard M.2 heatsink; its copper-clad label transfers heat to that cooler.

Which capacity should I choose between the 2TB model and other sizes?

The 2TB CT2000T705SSD3 gives 14,500 MBps read and 12,700 MBps write; smaller capacities typically show lower sequential figures.

What does the 14,500 MBps headline speed mean once the SSD is installed in my PC?

That is the maximum sequential read over PCI-Express 5.0 x4; real-world throughput depends on motherboard cooling, workload and CPU generation.
