Crucial P3 Plus 4TB PCIe 3.0, 3D NAND, NVMe, M.2 SSD, up to 5000MB/s - CT4000P3PSSD8

Product Information

The combination of the Phison E18 controller and 176-layer TLC flash from Micron is a match made in heaven: unrivaled peak performance and, with the right cache design as on the Gaming model, strong sustained performance. That is ideal for workstation tasks, and Inland’s drives are cheaper than competitor offerings while maintaining a decent warranty. This is a barebones drive but will get the job done. Estimated valueis Dell’s estimate of product value based on industry data, including the prices at which third-party retailers have offered or valued the same or comparable products, in its most recent survey of major online and/or off-line retailers. Third-party retailer data may not be based on actual sales.

Leider muss ich sagen, dass diese Sabrent NVMe mit 3D TLC NAND Flashspeicher für 140 Euro aktuell nicht mehr wirklich ein Schnäppchen ist. Sie macht sich auch selbst Konkurrenz durch eine günstigere Version mit 3D QLC NAND und eine ca. 50 bzw. 30 Euro teurere PCIe 4.0 NVMe mit 3D TLC bzw. 3D QLC NAND, für mich also weder Fisch noch Fleisch. Zumal es auch schon PCIe 3.0 QLC NVMe gibt ab 100 Euro (Unterschiede QLC/TLC siehe ganz unten). The 8TB Mushkin Gamma is yet another high-end Gen4 M.2 SSD powered by the Phison E18 controller but is specified as being slightly slower than the Corsair models (likely due to previous-gen NAND). It still gets quite close to the bandwidth limits of the PCIe 4.0 interface with a sequential performance of 7,000 MB/s (read) and 5,900 MB/s (write). Random performance is 700K/1M IOPS (read/write).

This was a very nice bump up from my last nvme drive (MyDigital BPX 240Gb). R/W speeds seem quite respectable for the storage/cost ratio this provides. I discovered my mainboard (Asus Prime B350M-E) does not see this in BIOS mode (ie. Legacy OPRom), but only when booting UEFI mode. I only ran up against that since I'm booting from this drive. I had to make the switch from using ol' GRUB-BIOS to something UEFI aware, I went with systemd-boot.

Right now, PCIe 4.0 is the go-to PCIe generation. That's because it offers a high speed at a reasonable cost. The newest SSDs on the market offer PCIe 5.0 capability, which doubles the theoretical bandwidth an SSD can run at. However, these are few and far between and awfully expensive. Also the first drives of any PCIe generation tend to end up much slower than what that generation is truly capable of.verfügbarer Speicher: 953,6743GB ; *1024*1024*1024 = 1.024.000.000.000 Bytes = 1024GB = 1TB (die übliche nicht korrekte "Speichermedien-Hersteller-Mathematik") If you are looking for lots of fast internal storage space at a more reasonable cost, SATA drives should (and usually do) offer lower prices per GB compared to their M.2 PCIe counterparts. For quite some time Samsung was the only manufacturer with 4TB or larger consumer SSDs in the market. More recently, Western Digital/SanDisk and Seagate have also started to offer high-capacity alternatives.

The Samsung SSD 990 Pro, the company's flagship PCI Express 4.0 NVMe internal solid-state drive, has a hard act to follow in the Editors' Choice-winning SSD 980 Pro, but for the most part it makes a great product even better. This power-efficient drive gets high marks for raw speed, everyday application performance, a strong software suite, and hardware-based encryption. The heatsink-equipped version of this drive performed slightly better than the non-heatsink version (which we tested using our testbed's motherboard's heatsink) in most of our benchmarks. It doesn't quite merit the 980 Pro's Editors' Choice award, because other recent internal SSDs have outpaced it in our gaming benchmarks, but its overall capability makes this Samsung a versatile drive well-suited for creative tasks. Who It's For Silicon Power is a brand that probably doesn’t get much attention compared to the likes of Samsung or WD, but when you look at its XS70 NVMe SSD with its high-end specifications, it's clear that the brand name isn't everything. Armed with the latest Phison controller and high-performance NAND flash memory, a drive like the Silicon Power XS70 should have no problem competing with thebest SSD on the market.I recommend you look for a new SSD with at least 1TB of storage space. Don't fret, they're extremely good value, but they're importantly big enough to manage with today's massive game install sizes. 512GB is still an okay option for a boot drive with minimal game storage, which will make for an great upgrade if you're booting off a hard drive currently, though 256GB is cutting it far too fine. Falls der Flash-Speicher jetzt nicht mehr 64 lagiger 3D NAND von Toshiba, sondern 96 lagiger von Micron ist (96L ist allgemein die aktuelle Generation 3D NAND -> verbesserte Schreibraten, kürzere Lebensdauer), wäre mir das total egal solange die Leistung stimmt. Und das scheint ja der Fall zu sein, wenn man sich die letzten Bewertungen hier anschaut. Die Tatsache, dass der Controller bzw. dessen Firmware angepasst werden muss wegen des Generationswechsels von 64L zu 96L 3D-NAND ist ja logisch. Ich habe die SSD als Upgrade zu meiner alten SSD gekauft und nutze sie nun als Systemplatte neben einer zweiten M.2 für Computerspiele. Ich habe mich für die Sabrent entschieden, weil Sie zum Kaufzeitpunkt eine sehr preisgünstige SSD war. - Beim heutigen Preisverfall würde ich allerdings deutlich weniger Geld ausgeben wollen. The AHCI (Advanced Host Controller Interface) command protocol was designed for much slower media (i.e., spinning magnetic disks). AHCI is inefficient with modern SSDs, so a new standard was developed: NVMHCI (Non-Volatile Memory Host Controller Interface). Combine NVMHCI with a fast PCIe interface, and you have NVMe, Non-Volatile Memory Express. It's a much-improved interface developed around the needs of flash memory rather than spinning disks. What's NVMe performance like in the real world? The main way it achieves this is by being a DRAM-less SSD drive. This saves a big chunk of the manufacturer's bill of materials, and thanks to advances in the latest controllers, it can be surprising how little impact this has on performance. Such drives are slower, don't get me wrong, but this new SN770 still quotes read and writes of 5,150MB/s and 4,900MB/s, respectively. Not bad.
