Solid-state drives that support the PCIe NVMe Gen 4 standard are some of the fastest pieces of storage technology that you will ever come across, and they would be the perfect upgrade if not for one glaring problem, the price. Lucky for you, Amazon Prime Big Deal Days has eliminated this obstacle because the 4TB version of the Crucial P3 Plus is available for $199.49 after a 45 percent discount at the online retailer.
The high-capacity SSD offers the ideal ‘price to performance’ ratio, making it easier for PC builders and laptop owners to upgrade their storage seamlessly. It is also possible to install the Crucial P3 Plus in the PS5, since it supports the PCIe NVMe Gen 4 protocol. Coming to the speeds, the 4TB SSD can achieve sequential read speeds of up to 5000MB/s, with sequential write speeds topping out at 4,200MB/s.
In short, it will fire up games and your resource-hungry programs in no time. However, speed is not the only factor to consider when picking up an SSD like this because responsiveness is also a key metric. Thankfully, the Crucial P3 Plus will make your system thoroughly snappy thanks to its sequential read and write IOPS rating of 650,000 and 900,000, respectively.
Crucial also claims that the P3 Plus is up to 43 percent faster than the previous-generation PCIe NVMe Gen 3 SSDs. As for reliability and longevity, the company offers a 5-year limited warranty and says that its 4TB solid-state drive has a ‘Mean Time To Fail’ rating of 1.5 million hours. In short, it will take years before you start to upgrade from this drive, but it is imperative that you pick it up now before the discount expires.
