Lightning Gen4 Performance from Crucial
Speed up boots, loads, and saves with 7,400/7,000MB/s sequential reads/writes (Typical I/O performance as measured using CrystalDiskMark® with default settings for NVMe SSDs and write cache enabled. Windows 11 Core isolation disabled for performance measurement. Fresh out-of-box (FOB) state is assumed. For performance measurement purposes, the SSD may be restored to FOB state using the secure erase command. System variations will affect measured results.) — the Crucial T500 PCIe® 4.0 NVMe SSD is more than 2x faster (Calculated by comparing T500’s sequential reads of 7,400MB/s to the previous generation’s (P5 Plus) speeds of 6,600MB/s, or to the SATA’s (MX500) speed of 560MB/s. Actual performance may vary.) than Gen3 SSDs and 12x faster (Calculated by comparing T500’s sequential reads of 7,400MB/s to the previous generation’s (P5 Plus) speeds of 6,600MB/s, or to the SATA’s (MX500) speed of 560MB/s. Actual performance may vary.) than SATA.
Performance to Power Ratio
Get more done in less time with the T500’s power efficiency. With up to a 40% higher performance to power ratio4, the Crucial T500 PCIe 4.0 NVMe SSD helps keep your computer working faster with less power.
In-Game Gains
Real tests don’t lie — load games 16% faster (Gaming speed claims based on Micron test results measuring Forspoken Benchmark, Call of Duty® and Valorant® bootup times of the Crucial T500 and other Gen4 SSDs. Your performance may vary.) with the Crucial T500 PCIe 4.0 NVMe SSD. Store more games with up to 2TB (Some of the storage capacity is used for formatting and other purposes and is not available for data storage. 1GB equals 1 billion bytes. Not all capacities available at initial launch.) of storage. With Microsoft® DirectStorage, render faster (Compared to Gen4 SSD performance without DirectStorage, based on Micron test results with supported GPU that uses GPU decompression.) and enjoy more detailed game textures.
