Crucial T705 PCIe Gen5 NVMe 4TB SSD, Up to 14,100MB/s, TLC NAND, Intel & Ryzen Compatible, for Hardcore Gaming & High-Speed Storage, Solid State Drive, Includes 1Mo Adobe CC – CT4000T705SSD3

This is an interesting piece of hardware. This particular NVME SSD Gen 5.0 exceeded read and write speeds for me in Crystal Disk, and that was on a working "C" drive. This Gen 5.0 drive cooks, and in more ways than one. Running this in the Gen 5.0 slot on a Gigabyte X670E motherboard. I made the error of initially installing this drive on an add in card with no heatsink to clone to as the target drive. I thought since the add in card drive PCIe slot was rated at 4.0, and not 5.0, I would not have to worry about temperatures. WRONG. The drive shut down after about 20 seconds, which I believe to be the temperature high limit was tripped. You absolutely have to run this SSD with a good heatsink, no matter what you are doing with it. I did not think the Motherboard heatsink was going to cut it, and installed a Thermalright heat pipe heat sink on the Crucial T705. This is a good heat-sink, but despite that, running Crystal Disk, and the heat-sink sitting above a hot RTX 4080 Super back plate, the drive still hit 80 Degrees C. running the Write portion of the Crystal Disk benchmark. This is in a well ventilated Case, but with an AIO over the CPU, this is kind of a dead space. I am going to get a slightly larger SSD cooler, with a fan. It helps if I run the RTX 4080 fans all the time to cool the video card and not transmit so much heat to the SSD cooler, but I am not gaming all the time nor do I want my Video Card fans running constantly. These are just some caveats to look out for. The Crucial T705 SSD is running flawlessly, and yes, games and programs do load faster. The associated Crucial Storage Executive is fine, but if you are used to the Samsung Tool Box, you will be disappointed. You are best off with an aftermarket cooling solution, as I do not think the "stock" heat sink some of the models come with would be adequate for file transfers, especially being so close to a hot Video Card. Tom's Hardware has some good testing reviews on Gen 5.0 SSD heatsinks with heat pipes. Cheers!

Very fast performance – up to 14,500 MB/s read and 12,700 MB/s write PCIe 5.0 technology for next-generation high-speed storage Great for gaming and heavy workloads like video editing and large file transfers Reliable with a 5-year warranty Runs hot under heavy use, so good cooling is recommended More expensive than most PCIe 4.0 SSDs Overall: One of the fastest consumer SSDs, best for high-end PCs and enthusiasts. Got this on black Friday sale

Bought this drive to replace my boot drive in my main rig. Drive works flawlessly and is super fast. Price was amazing when I bought it literally a week before the ai craze started. You will need aftermarket cooling if using this drive for large file transfers or applications that push the drive full speed for sustained periods. I have mine paired with a Rhermalrigh h10 Pro digital and it keeps my drive below 50c under load.

Paired with a fresh installation of cachyos, my pc boots faster than ever. Games load almost too fast. Instead of waiting on the loading screen, now i get into a lobby and wait for everyone else to join. Why am i always first? This Drive. Idk if i really needed two tbs, but im glad i got it. Especially right before the memory crisis, no thanks to out of touch corporations simping over ai.

Very good performance. Easy install upgrade.

Works great. Seems a little slower than the Samsung 9100. No issues installing and cloning my system over.

These drives deliver exactly what they promise with the proper supporting hardware. I am running 2 of these drives; a 1TB OS drive and a 2TB game drive mounted on an Asus ROG Strix X670E-F mobo with a 7800X3D CPU. Right out of the box these drives were delivering maximum anticipated sequential read and write speeds, of 13+Gbps and 14+Gbps respectively. One thing that I think most people overlook is the fact that your OS drive can take advantage of Momentum Cache through the Crucial Storage Executive software. Enabling Momentum Cache will lower your top end sequential read and write speeds (see the 3rd pic) but it makes a HUGE boost to your random read and write speeds (which are the most imporant on an OS drive for it to boot quickly, load your login apps, and make the OS feel as snappy as possible). I definitely recommend enabling this feature for your boot drive. My game drive is seeing 14+gbps sequential reads and let me tell you, large map and level load times in AAA titles are insanely fast. I have once to be beaten into a game by another player since installing this drive. Overall, EXCELLENT drives and worth the money. Very very happy with my purchase.

Only complaint i have is the price. Works at the speeds it should. I haven't had any issues with it at all.

Als Technik-Nerd hat mich die Crucial T705 2 TB PCIe Gen5 NVMe SSD vom ersten Moment an beeindruckt. Die pure Leistung ist schlicht brachial: Mit sequenziellen Leseraten von bis zu 14.500 MB/s und Schreibraten jenseits der 12.000 MB/s katapultiert sie jedes System in eine neue Dimension der Geschwindigkeit. Große Datenmengen – egal ob 8K-Videomaterial, komplexe 3D-Modelle oder gigantische Spielebibliotheken – werden in Rekordzeit bewegt. Der eingesetzte Controller in Kombination mit modernem 232-Layer TLC NAND und einem großzügigen DRAM-Cache sorgt nicht nur für Spitzenwerte in Benchmarks, sondern auch für konstant hohe Performance im Dauerbetrieb. Selbst bei langen Transfers bleibt die Geschwindigkeit stabil, ohne dass thermische Drosselung früh einsetzt – vorausgesetzt, das Kühldesign des Mainboards ist darauf ausgelegt. Besonders angenehm: Die SSD ist abwärtskompatibel zu PCIe 4.0 und 3.0. Damit kann sie auch in älteren Systemen betrieben werden und zeigt trotzdem beeindruckende Werte – perfekt für ein zukünftiges Upgrade auf ein volles PCIe-Gen5-Setup. Installation im M.2-Slot ist in Sekunden erledigt, und die Verarbeitungsqualität wirkt absolut hochwertig. Das kupferbeschichtete Label zur passiven Wärmeableitung ist nicht nur funktional, sondern unterstreicht auch den Premium-Charakter. Fazit: Wer Wert auf kompromisslose Geschwindigkeit, modernste Technik und zuverlässige Leistung legt, bekommt mit der Crucial T705 ein echtes High-End-Laufwerk, das in Sachen Datendurchsatz aktuell ganz vorne mitspielt. Absolute 5-Sterne-Empfehlung!

100 % OK

One of the best gen5 SSDs on the market. Does get hot but that is to be expected with this level of performance.

Excelente

Parfait ! Performances au top et ne chauffe pas, températures exceptionnelles pour un NVME !
