    People put too much emphasis on whether it's a qlc or tlc. The vast majority of people really don't need to worry about it at all. If you're just using it as game storage (which let's be honest, most people are) then it's honestly fine.

    Great price. Bought a Exceria G2 recently and the speeds aren't this good. Maybe I put too much stock in TLC & DRAM.

    The G2 has better endurance than the P3 if it's going to get thrashed (400 TBW vs 220TBW for the 1GB models)

    Plus the G2 will sustain 1500MB/s after it's DRAM cache is used up whereas the Crucial P3 drops to around 100MB/S after it can no longer cache data in SLC mode (depending on free space available)

    So, horses for courses; I was going to go for the G2 but will likely get the P3 as the drive will get light use and apparently uses very slightly less power (in a thin laptop so heat/battery life is a bit of a deal)

    Argh!
    I have ordered and received but not yet opened
    1TB 980
    1TB Lexar NM710
    as I need an external hard drive.

    Shoudl I send both back and order this instead?

    No, those are both TLC NAND, better than this QLC NAND junk (speaking from experience with Crucial QLC drives in the past).

    Lets all vote a DRAM-less QLC drive scorching hot when you can get a TLC DRAM-less drive for the same price, or a TLC drive with DRAM-cache for £4 more...

    Makes sense.

    Speaking as someone who has had previous Crucial QLC drives fail in less than 18 Months with less than 100TBW, I'm speaking from experience.

    I got this when it was £45 and have used it as my main drive for a month now.

    Fantastic speed, games load quickly and Windows 11 is super snappy. (edited)

    Can these be used as external storage on Xbox series with an enclosure? I get I can't play the games that need internal , but must be quicker to run older games or transfer to and from this drive then normal SSD?

    Desktop, running in a PCIe Gen4 slot and the performance is great.

    Anyone got any experience using an M.2 SATA SSD to 2.5in SATA Adapter with an nvme drive in a laptop? I know the speeds will be SATA restricted but unsure on heat / safety etc etc

    Yep, had that in my sons old laptop. Would be perfectly fine.

    Do you think the drop in memory / storage prices is anything to do with Crypto Mining?
    jameshothothot's avatar
    jameshothothot
    i think it's more to do with laptop replacement cycle. PC shipments are down. Mobile phone shipments are down. There was a lot of goods spending during covid especially for laptops for schools and work. Now we're spending more on services. But a fair point the end of mining has also freed up silicon capacity but I think the end of laptop demand is the biggest factor. Top-level silicon was going to miners but Nvidia still gouging us but also strong AI processing demand.

    These M2 drives are still way overkill performance wise right? Sure at this price you'd go for it over say a SATA III. But, it will take quite some time before software starts taking advantage of these read/write speeds?

    Gaming wise, once developers start utilising the PS5s M2 capabilties - hopefully that'll come across to PCs?

    Still got sometime until that happens?

    Is my understanding correct?

    There is a noticeable difference in system performance if your OS is on a SATA SSD vs an NVME SSD when something really thrashes the drive (EG Windows updates for example), even without being low on RAM so there shouldn't be much paging going on. However the difference between a "fast" NVME and a budget one is small enough you need a stopwatch to notice in my experience.

    Any good for just day to day use?
    Would go in my MacBook 2014 have A 256GB Adata in to but could do with bit more space

    I'm on the fence between this and the Kingston NV2, which is £1.60 cheaper. I've got a £5 Amazon voucher to use by tomorrow, it would only be going in a b450, so PCIE3.0...decisions, decisions.

    Hi All,

    Looking for fast external storage for Backing Up Macbook Pro - I know folks say this is way overkill & will never be able to utilise max speed & to get a regular SSD instead BUT dedicated external SSD's are way more expensive than this - even regular SSD's which will require a caddy are not cheaper that I can find?

    In view of this, is it worth getting an NVME drive like this & an external caddy? Even though the speed will not be fully utilised, will it still be as fast if not faster than an SSD vis USB 3 ports or Thunderbolt 2 ports?

    What type/spec of caddy should one get please?

    Thank You!

    Exceria better on random speeds (better for OS) Crucial better for sequential (for larger files). Better to focus on Q1T1 speeds (thats the minimum yous should expect). Not much in it, real world speeds.

    Exceria might be tad faster in OS (probably wouldnt noticed) but Crucial should be signifcantly faster writing large files
    The.Fat.Cat's avatar
    The.Fat.Cat
    And which is by FAR the mostly used of those scenarios?
    Yep, OS/Apps/games.
    Easy win for the Kioxia.

    Then what, if someone is going to spend a large amound of time writing large files they should get the Crucial, right?
    Oh HELL no! No one that plans on writing a lot of data (like video editing) should buy a QLC NAND drive, especially not one made by Crucial.
    They should go for a far more durable TLC NAND drive.
    You can get a more durable TLC NAND drive for the same price as this Crucial, or even the faster (but still QLC NAND) Kingston NV2 - again - for the same price.

    So, this P3 is a pretty pointless drive at this price. (edited)

    Hi all. I’m no expert on the technical stuff. My pc has (1 PCIe x1; 1 PCIe x16; 1 M.2)
    Would this Kingston drive work in my pc?
    The.Fat.Cat's avatar
    The.Fat.Cat
    It would depend on wither the M.2 slot supports NVMe.
    Most have for a long time now, so if it's a fairly new board you should be fine but I'd still double check with the Motherboards specs.

    In any case, don't bother with this less durable QLC NAND drive, get a TLC NAND drive for the same money, it'll last longer -
