The Crucial CT1000P3PSSD8 is an M.2 NVMe SSD designed for high-performance applications in modern computers and laptops. Here is a detailed description of the SSD, including technical details, features and application areas:
Technical details
1. Capacity:
- Storage capacity: 1 TB (terabytes)
- This capacity provides sufficient storage for operating systems, applications, and large amounts of user data. It is ideal for users who need a lot of storage space without compromising on performance.
2. Interface:
- M.2 2280: The M.2 2280 form factor is the standard for many modern SSDs and enables a compact design that can be integrated into laptops and desktop motherboards.
- NVMe 1.3: The SSD uses the NVMe (Non-Volatile Memory Express) interface over PCIe (Peripheral Component Interconnect Express), which offers significantly higher performance than SATA interfaces. NVMe 1.3 ensures optimized communication between the SSD and the processor.
3. Form factor:
- M.2 2280: This is the standard form factor for many modern SSDs and is 80 mm long and 22 mm wide. The form factor allows for a direct connection to the motherboard, saving space and simplifying installation.
4. Controller:
- Crucial Controller: The CT1000P3PSSD8 uses a Crucial proprietary controller that is specifically optimized for high performance and reliability in data processing.
5. Memory chip type:
- 3D NAND TLC (Triple-Level Cell): The SSD uses 3D NAND flash memory cells that store three bits per cell. TLC offers a good cost-to-capacity and performance ratio, but is less durable than MLC (Multi-Level Cell) or SLC (Single-Level Cell).
6. Read and write speed:
- Maximum sequential read speed: Up to 5,000 MB/s
- Maximum sequential write speed: Up to 4,200 MB/s
- These speeds are typical for NVMe SSDs and offer a significant performance increase over SATA-based SSDs and traditional hard drives.
7. Access times:
- Random Read/Write: The SSD offers random read and write speeds that often reach several hundred thousand IOPS (Input/Output Operations Per Second). This high IOPS number improves performance in data-intensive applications and multitasking.
8. TBW (Terabytes Written):
- Endurance: The TBW capacity indicates how many terabytes of data can be written to the SSD before the cells wear out significantly. For this SSD, the TBW value is typically up to 600 TBW, indicating good durability.
9. Temperature range:
- Operating and storage temperature: The SSD can operate in an operating range of approximately 0°C to 70°C and has a storage temperature of -40°C to 85°C. These ranges ensure reliability and robustness under various operating conditions.
Features
1. Performance:
- High Speeds: The CT1000P3PSSD8 delivers exceptional read and write speeds that greatly improve system performance when processing large amounts of data, booting operating systems, and running applications.
2. Energy efficiency:
- Low power consumption: NVMe SSDs are known for their high energy efficiency compared to traditional hard drives and even SATA SSDs, resulting in longer battery life in laptops and less heat generation.
3. Safety and reliability:
- Data Path Protection and Power Loss Protection: The SSD offers protection mechanisms against data loss due to sudden power outages, thus ensuring data integrity.
4. Data management software:
- Crucial Storage Executive Tool: Crucial offers software that allows users to monitor the SSD, perform firmware updates, and optimize performance.
5. Authentication and encryption technologies:
- AES 256-bit encryption: The SSD supports hardware-based AES 256-bit encryption to securely store data and protect it from unauthorized access.
Scope
1. Desktop-Computer:
- Primary Drive: Ideal for desktop PCs as the primary drive to install operating systems and programs. High performance improves system responsiveness and shortens boot times.
2. Laptops and notebooks:
- Performance Upgrade: The SSD is ideal for laptops as it significantly increases performance while consuming low power, which extends battery life.
3. Gaming Systems:
- Faster loading times: Perfect for gaming systems as it reduces game loading times and enables faster data processing.
4. Creative applications:
- Data-intensive tasks: For applications such as video editing, 3D rendering, and other creative tasks that require large amounts of data to be processed quickly, the SSD provides the performance required.
5. Servers and workstations:
- High performance and reliability: Ideal for servers and workstations that require high performance and reliability in data processing.
Conclusion
The Crucial CT1000P3PSSD8 is a high-performance 1 TB NVMe SSD that offers fast sequential read and write speeds of up to 5,000 MB/s and 4,200 MB/s, respectively. It is ideal for applications that require fast data transfers and high IOPS. With its M.2 2280 form factor, 3D NAND TLC memory, and advanced security features, it offers excellent performance for desktop computers, laptops, gaming systems, and creative applications. Its power efficiency and reliability make it a top choice for modern, high-performance computing scenarios.
