Review: Transformative Speed and Reliability – Crucial 2TB PCIe NVMe M.2 SSD - After installing the Crucial 2TB PCIe 3.0 NVMe M.2 SSD in my Dell XPS 9560, I ran a series of benchmarks using CrystalDiskMark 8.0.1 to see if the upgrade was worth it. The results were nothing short of spectacular, confirming that this SSD is a top-tier performer. Performance Overview: Sequential Read/Write (Q8T1): The SSD achieved an astonishing 3153.94 MB/s read and 2974.02 MB/s write speeds. This shows that the SSD can handle large file transfers incredibly efficiently, which is perfect for video editing and data analysis. Sequential Read/Write (Q1T1): It recorded 2230.71 MB/s read and 2568.10 MB/s write speeds. These speeds are reflective of typical daily usage and suggest significant improvements in application loading and file access over traditional SSDs. Random Read/Write (4KB Q32T1): With 342.65 MB/s read and 182.53 MB/s write speeds, the drive excels in multitasking and complex operations, which are common in system operations and during multiple applications running. Random Read/Write (4KB Q1T1): Achieving 48.49 MB/s read and 123.72 MB/s write, the SSD proves it can handle random data requests efficiently, enhancing overall system responsiveness. Final Thoughts: The Crucial 2TB PCIe NVMe M.2 SSD delivers exceptional performance that has breathed new life into my Dell XPS 9560. The incredible speeds significantly reduce load times and improve the system's ability to handle demanding applications and large files. Whether it's for professional use or daily computing, this SSD proves to be an excellent investment for anyone looking to upgrade their system. Highly recommended for its superior performance and reliability!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ eh mazing! (reviewed 6 months after purchase)
*by W***N on 15 December 2023*

Installed this on my Dell G15 5515 Laptop (2022 Ryzen Edition), and I'm proud to say that this was my first time adding an upgrade to my PC :D On CrystalDiskMark 8 I got speeds of 3500-3600MB/s, which means that the SSD performs up to the speed as advertised. I use this SSD purely for the storage of games and there have been zero issues with this drive ever since I installed it. Highly recommend this model if your PC is on PCIe 3.0.
