Crucial - P3 4TB Internal SSD PCIe Gen 3 x4 NVMe
Model: CT4000P3SSD8SKU: 6509716Top comment"I put it in an external USB-C/ Thunderbolt enclosure. If you are going to spend the money to get this drive spend the money to get a good enclosure if using it externally....It drives hard!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!...Fast SSD drive definitely worth the money"

Basic bootup speeds won’t cut it — not at work, on the go, or in the game. But the Crucial P3 SSD is anything but basic. With NVMe performance that’s more than 6x faster than SATA2 and storage capacities up to 4TB3, the P3 leaves older storage technology in the dust. Get faster bootups, downloads and file transfers, and store all your files, photos, videos, apps, and games with room to spare with the quality and dependability you expect from Crucial.Top comment"I put it in an external USB-C/ Thunderbolt enclosure.
