Set up was easy as ever and the price for 2tb of storage and the read/write speed is great! Crucial has never failed me. It is a very reliable brand and am happy so far with any product I buy from them!

Blazing fast and the size is great

The Crucial T500 M.2 SSD is extremely fast and the 2 TB of storage gives my gaming computer a lot more storage.
I was running out of room on my 500GB M.2 SSD so this 2TB added to my computer gives me so much more room. Adding it as a second SSD was quick and easy. It needed formatting and then it was good to go.
Using it as a 2nd SSD, instead of the primary, meant I didn't have to install Windows or do any cloning.
Games take a lot of space to run and I had been putting off getting a few games because I tire of having to decide which to uninstall in order to have room for a new one and repeat when I'm ready to play the old one again. The 2TB on this SSD gives me plenty of room to add those games and space for more in the future.
I highly recommend Crucial SSD's as I've been using them for years in my computers and laptops and have never had a problem. This one, Crucial - T500 2TB Internal SSD PCIe Gen 4X4 NVMe M.2, is blazing fast, the size is great and it's a quick easy install to improve your computer.

I decided to install this on a new computer build I was doing. The hard drive so far is performing super well. Prior to this hard drive, I had 2 samsung m2 drives installed, one 960 Evo and one 960 Pro. I ran a few benchmarking programs to get a sense of the difference in the 3 hard drives.
While the samsungs performed pretty good, this Crucial T500 almost doubled the speeds in both directions, in comparison to the other two drives.
After setup I installed some games and ran them to see if the speed felt any better, as well as some video editing softwares. I personally feel this drive has improved the load times of a few of my games and one in particular doesnt seem as laggy as it normally would while running. The performance of my video editing software also feels it is moving with a little more pep than before.
specs:
m.2 2280 SSD
sequencial reads/writes *up to (7,400/7,000MB/s)
5 year limited warranty
This is a pretty fast hard drive and you wont be disappointed if you pick one up.

[PROS]
High-End Speeds: With read/writes speeds topping out at 7,400 MB/s and 7,000MB/s respectively, this SSD is a powerhouse. Theoretical specs are one thing, but what about real world tests? Fortunately, I can report that these speeds are more than just theory. My testing primarily focused on conducting file transfers operations and observing behavior during gameplay sessions. I found myself impressed with how the drive performed in both areas compared to other comparable Gen 4 SSDs that I own. While gaming, I noticed that the T500 shaved off a few seconds in comparison to my other drives that are in the 5,500 - 7500 MB/s range when it comes to read and write speeds. To top everything off, performance never dipped even after a couple of hours of doing different tasks.
Excellent Thermals: Along with maintaining great performance, the SSD never exceeded 55 degrees Celsius once I applied a heatsink. The T500 managed to stay cool even while I went about gaming and other tasks without breaking a sweat.
[CONS]
I'm drawing a blank.... Any mention of anything else might be nitpicking. This doesn't come with a heatsink so that would be a minor inconvenience. Otherwise, I'm more than satisfied with it.
]CONCLUSION]
The Crucial T500 is a perfect blend of power and performance. It's replaced my main SSD drive, and I'm waiting for an external version of this product.

Fastest SSD I've ever used!!

This is a simply amazing SSD - I was upgrading from a smaller (1TB) PIC-e Gen 4 SSD (that one was rated for 5000 MB/s) and figured I was upgrading for the extra space and that I wouldn't necessarily notice the extra speed. Boy was I wrong - it's somehow like a night and day difference in my laptop. Things that before took a second or two are now literally instant. Oh, and I have the extra space too which is always welcome.
The installation was easy - the hardest part was getting the bottom shell off my laptop (that will vary for you depending on your laptop model - note that some may be very hard or impossible to remove) to get to the 2280 M.2 drive I was replacing. From there it was a simple matter of switching the drives and copying the files / operating system install.
I ran a few tests and the numbers back up the "feel" test - I'm seeing just a bit over 7000 MB/s read and just under that in write. That's outstanding and you can really feel the difference. It does run a bit hot in the laptop (I had to go without the heat spreader since that won't fit for a laptop install) but only a touch hotter than the prior SSD and not that worrying. I'm going to get another one of these to upgrade my older desktop SSD as well now that I've seen what they can do! So if you could use more speed and good space for a good price, give this drive a try today!

Perfect SSD for Next Gen Gaming

The T500 is a next great SSD at the peak of it's game. You can put this in your gaming computer or it's also compatible as a PS5 drive. My review will look at the PC side.
Installation was a breeze as with any m2 style SSD plug into the slot and screw it down. I decided to clone my old SSD to this and it worked perfect and I was up and running in no time. Cold boot times to windows login are mere seconds.
Transfer speeds are lightning fast I ran some benchmarks and had read speeds at the advertised 7000mb/s. Whether you plan on making this a main drive or a secondary gaming drive you will not be disappointed.
Just a reminder if you are new to the world of data storage this is marketed as 2tb, Windows will find about 1.81 TB of usable space one you format it properly, this is intended.
Love the fact that Crucial is backing this with an extended warranty of 5 years, you know that they stand behind the product. There's is literally no downside for the performance of this NVME drive at the price point, this is it chief.

Best Gen 4 SSD on the market!

This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
This SSD by Crucial really puts the capabilities of Gen 4 to the test. I was able to reach the max write speed of 7000 megabytes and the max read speed of 7400 megabytes pretty consistently even without a heatsink. This outperformed all of my previous SSDs and has been amazing for gaming. I'm not much of a content creator but I can imagine this would do just as well for video editing.
What comes in the box is just the SSD so make sure you have the right screw to install it on your motherboard. It is one-sided so it was a perfect fit for my laptop and gave zero issues upon installation. It comes with a 5 year limited warranty so I'm not too worried about longevity. Crucial has always been my go-to brand, and this product proves why I keep coming back.
Overall I'm really impressed with this product. It does as advertised and has given zero issues. I may get another 2TB SSD. Or I might wait until they release the 4TB option to fill up the second SSD slot on my laptop. 10/10 reccomend!
