Crucial - P5 1TB Internal SSD PCIe Gen 3 x4 NVMe
- Key Specs
- Storage Capacity: 1000 gigabytes (Measured in megabytes (MB), gigabytes (GB) and terabytes (TB), this is the amount available for storing files, music, movies, photos and more. The total includes the capacity of the hard disk drive and solid state drive if both are included on the computer.)
- Storage Drive Type: SSD (Traditional, mechanical hard disk drives are the most common type of storage because they're relatively inexpensive and offer huge capacities. However, they also generate both noise and heat. Solid state drives, also known as SSDs, are many times faster than hard disk drives and have no moving parts to wear out, but typically offer less capacity for the same price.)
- Maximum Read Speed: 3400 megabytes per second (The greatest speed at which the device can read information; for example, opening files.)
- Maximum Write Speed: 3000 megabytes per second (The greatest speed at which the device can write information; for example, saving files.)
- Form Factor: M.2
- Interface(s): PCIe Gen 3 x4 (Refers to the types of connections that devices use to interact and communicate with each other.)

Q: Will this work with the ps5???
A: Thank you for contacting Crucial. We are sorry to inform you that according to the details it states that you will be not able to install P5 drive internally in the system however you can connect that drive externally using USB-M.2 PCIe adapter which will help you to access that drive for storing as well as for playing games. Regards.
A: NVME drives are usually inserted into the slot at an angle around 45 degrees, and then secured to the motherboard with a screw. Some motherboards use other methods like push-pins to secure the drive.
Q: Will this work as a windows boot drive configuration?
A: Thank you for considering one of our award-winning Crucial storage products!
Assuming the P5 is determined to be compatible with your system (crucial.com offers a system compatibility 'scanner'), then yes, you may configure the drive as a primary or boot drive.
Crucial is happy to provide customer and technical support regardless of where you purchased the product. Please let us know if we can be of any assistance.

Q: Will this work on my MacBook Pro mid 2015
A: Some people have reported it working well. One person didn’t get it to work initially, but that was because they didn’t have the latest firmware. Upon the firmware upgrade, they got it working but had kernel panics every 10 minutes or so, but I believe that is likely due to damaging the pins upon uninstalling and reinstalling. Aside from that one person, everyone else has had good luck with using a P5. Please make sure you’re using an NGFF adapter for the NVME blade as the 2015 MacBook Pro uses AHCI. Additionally, make sure you’re on the latest firmware for your device. Keep the original Apple AHCI SSD around for future firmware updates as you won’t be able to update the firmware without it.
Q: Will this storage work for an asus tuf gaming x570 - plus motherboard??
A: Yes, it's M.2 NVME and the board referenced supports that.
Q: Is this compatible for asus tuf f15 laptop
A: Thank you for your inquiry. Regarding your query of the SSD, we would like to inform you that the part#CT1000P5SSD8 is compatible with the system asus tuf f15 as it supports M.2 NVMe slot in it. If you have any further query, we welcome your reply. Regards.
Q: Is this SSD compatible with MacBook Pro late 2013 A1502?
A: Thank you for reaching out to us and for your question. Apple has decided to use a unique M.2 connection that we do not make or sell. There may be adapters or converters out there that can be used but the Crucial P5 will not have the same M.2 connection type that your MacBook Pro utilizes. I hope you have a great day!
