Highlights
Quality
Overally, quite pleased with the performance of p5 ssd.
Would recommend without hesitation and will update this review in the future if i encounter any longevity issues with the drive.
Came up with 930gb of space after the windows install which i'm still pretty happy with.
Windows installed very quickly, with the bottleneck likely with the usb install media.
Price
Perfect upgrade for my new laptop, reasonable price
2 drive if the price was right!
, but i have never hesitated to buy crucial when the price was right.
Shipping
Ca/gp/product/b01dunlmuu/) and it is fast, but this one is much faster.
None are as fast in use as this.
Competitiveness
I benchmarked this thing and it outperforms even more expensive drives that i bought (using ryzen pcs, 2 & 5).
I usually used the samsung nvme drives, but these ones were significantly cheaper and i decided to give them a try.
I upgraded to this from a 1tb samsung evo 840 ssd, which was 6 years old and i thought was fast.
Yes, i get that they have to publish benchmark numbers as all their competitors are.
