Crucial P310 2TB NVMe SSD Launches in Full-Length 2280 Form Factor

The new SSD offers high-end PCIe Gen 4 performance at competitive prices, targeting both PCs and gaming consoles.

  • Crucial's P310 2TB SSD now comes in a standard M.2 2280 form factor, maintaining the same high performance as the 2230 version.
  • The SSD features read speeds of 7100 MB/s and write speeds of 6000 MB/s, powered by the Phison E27T controller and Micron's 232-layer QLC NAND flash.
  • Priced at $189.99 for 2TB, the P310 competes with high-end PCIe 4 SSDs like Samsung's 990 Pro and WD's SN850X, though it lacks a DRAM cache.
  • The P310 is designed to fit into laptops, desktops, and gaming consoles like the PlayStation 5, and can run efficiently without a heatsink under low loads.
  • Despite its high performance, the P310's pricing may be a hurdle, as more affordable options with similar or better specifications are available.
