Crucial P310 1TB M.2 2280 NVMe PCIe 4.0 Internal SSD with Heatsink

The Crucial CT1000P310SSD5 is a 1TB M.2 2280 NVMe solid state drive that taps into PCIe 4.0 bandwidth to move data quickly and keep demanding software feeling snappy. Whether you are trying to shave seconds off game load screens, juggle large Photoshop layers, or work through sprawling Excel models, the drive delivers the short response times that make everyday tasks feel smooth.

Sequential read speeds reach up to 7100 MB/s and write speeds climb to 6000 MB/s. In practical terms, that means big game updates, 4K video files, or project libraries transfer in a fraction of the time you may be used to with older SATA or PCIe 3.0 storage. Levels load fast, assets appear without stutter, and creative workflows stay fluid even when you push the project size into the hundreds of gigabytes.

An integrated heatsink is already attached, so you do not need extra thermal tape or aftermarket cooling. The heatsink draws heat away from the controller and memory, helping the drive maintain those top speeds through long gaming marathons or extended render sessions.

The P310 is built on Micron 3D NAND and carries an endurance rating of 220 TB written along with a 1.5 million-hour mean time between failures. That combination provides confidence for users who expect their system to run day after day without interruption.

Installation is straightforward. Slide the drive into an open M.2 slot on a desktop motherboard, a compatible laptop, or a PlayStation 5, secure it with a single screw, and start enjoying the extra headroom. If your system is still on PCIe 3.0, the drive will operate at the best speed that interface allows, making it a versatile upgrade for both current and slightly older platforms.
