Crucial - P3 Plus 2TB Internal SSD PCIe Gen 4 x4 NVMe

I recently purchased my 2nd Mac Mini M4, the baseline one,(for a 2nd location for me to do online work as I spend many days away from my home office assisting a family member in need of round-the-clock home care). Last November 2024 I purchased my first M4 to upgrade my home office. Because I already had a double monitor setup in my home office I was able to trade in my older M2 Mac Mini for an M4, and with the trade-in I made the upgrade... but then something else happened. I have to share in the care and support an elder family member away from my home, but I also still need to work and I'm taking online classes. Because I REALLY prefer a desktop over a laptop or tablet for learning or business purposes, and because of my use of tools like AI and spreadsheets, 2 or more monitors work well for me. I added an extension hub that allowed me to add this "Crucial - P3 Plus 2 TERABYTE internal SSD addition for storage. This is the affordable method to add so MUCH additional memory. I also appreciated the help of the GEEK SQUAD at the Best Buy store to sit down and just put it together the right way! Rasheed instantly knew what adjustment was required for use in a MAC (vs a PC). His knowledge likely saved me from either returning it or taking hours figuring out what I was looking for to make this work with an APPLE product vs it's design for a PC. I hope and pray these physical BRICK AND MORTAR stores never go away. It's such a great help having smart staff members available willing to help you get these things to successfully work. There is far too much DO IT YOURSELF occurring. On a related note I'm trying to change internet providers but the new company offers NO real assistance. I may cancel that and send the equipment back. I'm considered somewhat TECH SAVVY but things are constantly changing in the tech world. Having IN PERSON assistance via BEST BUY is something I value very much. I hope that it continues. What I also missed (trying first to do it myself) was the "SNAP" when this 2TB unit was added to my expansion hub and thankfully Rasheed at best Buy knew exactly what to do!! WOW! It really is a cost-effective way to boost the storage of a Mac Mini. I was able to utilize an older 24-inch Insignia Fire TV plus a 19-inch Insignia "dumb" TV - which I was going to discard - to use with the Mac Mini as dual monitors at my 2nd location.

Price cannot be beat, Speeds are above what I need and I have had 0 issues with this drive. Currently using it for an external m.2 that stores all my games.

Great product! I used it to upgrade the storage in my Lenovo yoga 920 laptop rather than upgrading to a whole new laptop which saved me a lot of money. There's a very small, but noticeable, difference in overall speed when I'm doing high performance activities such as video editing, however I do have ≈8 times more storage now, which is definitely been very nice! Overall, I would definitely recommend this product.

The 2TB internal SSD from Best Buy offers impressive storage capacity and lightning-fast performance. With the new ample space for all my files and applications, this SSD enhances my productivity and gaming experiences. Its reliability ensures peace of mind, making it a top choice for upgrading your system's storage.And really easy to Instal just a single screw and I was done. Highly recommended.

Very easy to install. Was finally able to install my 7+ games with easy and clone my old ssd files onto this new one. Popped up in my bios instantly and am enjoying every bit of space i have on this bad boy
