Crucial P2 CT1000P2SSD8 1 TB
 | Outdated Product Crucial's terabyte solid-state drive can be classified as a mid-range solution. It is suitable for completing personal computers for various purposes, ranging from multimedia systems or office PCs to entry-level gaming stations. The SSD is made in a compact form factor M.2 2280, so it can be installed even in thin laptops. The PCIe 3.0 4x bus with the NVMe protocol is used as a data transfer interface, which significantly exceeds the capabilities of SATA. So, the Crucial P2 CT1000P2SSD8 1 TB SSD boasts decent read and write speeds of up to 2400 and 1800 MB/s, respectively. The hardware basis of the model is a 96-layer 3D NAND flash memory and a Phison PS5013-E13T controller, which provides decent performance and speed. Other features include a 5-year official warranty and a good 300 TB gua...ranteed write resource (TBW). We also note that the brand line includes models of different sizes from 250 GB to 2 TB. |

It turns out that in the new revisions the memory is QLC (screenshot attached). The manufacturer quietly replaced the memory after good reviews came out, as when I purchased it, it was stated everywhere that the memory was TLC. The system loads quickly, undoubtedly, but compared to the Samsung 860EVO 250GB SATA3 SSD, it performs much worse. Even when it's half full, the speed significantly drops. To back my words, there's a screenshot of the test with both drives at 76% capacity. Both are installed in different PCs and serve as system drives with Windows. It's worth considering only if you want no wires sticking out of the case or if it's not for the system. Due to the lack of cache, I would recommend either another NVME or a Samsung SATA for the system. In synthetic benchmarks like CrystalDiskMark, it's good, but synthetic tests are far from reality, much like Musk, for now, is from Mars. Price/volume ratio. Low temperatures, rarely 45, and 50 only with continuous recording or reading large volumes. NVME protocol. Speed. The manufacturer is misleading.  Ivanko: use Crucial CT1000P2SSD8 few months |
The system loads quickly, undoubtedly, but compared to the Samsung 860EVO 250GB SATA3 SSD, it performs considerably worse. There's a severe drop in speed even when the disk is only half full. To avoid being unfounded, the screenshot shows a test of both at 76% full each. They are both installed in different PCs and both serve as system drives with Windows. I would recommend purchasing only if you want a wire-free setup in the case or if it's not for a system drive. Due to the lack of cache, I would suggest going for another NVME or a Samsung SATA for the system. In synthetic benchmarks like CrystalDiskMark, it's good, but synthetic tests are as far from reality as Musk, currently, is from Mars. As we can see, the drops are worse than those of some HDDs. Under no circumstances would I recommend this. Price/volume ratio. Low temperatures, rarely reaching 45, and 50 only during continuous recording or reading of large volumes. NVME protocol.

A good budget SSD. In the description they write that it is on QLC, the programs write that mine has a capacity of 250 Gb, on TLC flash. I think this QLC is used on drives with a capacity of 1TB and higher, as QLC is a flash with a higher density, and there is simply no point in making chips for 256 Gb Acceptable speed (sequential reading up to 2400 MB/s, random 4k up to 56 MB/s, higher than stated), taking into account the fact that there is no DRAM cache, and a 5-year warranty Before this drive I had an Intel 760p, so in comparison with it, CRUCIAL is hot. |
