  • Our take on the Crucial P3 Plus 4TB

    The Crucial P3 Plus 4TB is a PCIe Gen4 NVMe M.2 2280 SSD built on QLC NAND. It reads up to 4,800 MB/s and writes up to 4,100 MB/s, with an 800 TBW endurance rating and a 1.5 million hour MTBF. It suits people who want a large, fast game or media drive without paying for a premium Gen4 drive. Against Gen4 rivals like the Samsung 990 Pro or WD Black SN850X, it is slower and has lower endurance, but it holds far more data for the same outlay and runs fine in a laptop or PS5. Reviewers call it a solid value drive for bulk storage, not a top pick for heavy sustained writes.

    Questions and answers

    Is the Crucial P3 Plus 4TB fast enough for gaming?
    Yes. Reads up to 4,800 MB/s cut load times and meet the PS5's speed requirement. It is slower than top Gen4 drives but rarely noticeable in games.
    Does it work in a PS5?
    Yes, the M.2 2280 form factor and Gen4 interface meet Sony's requirements. You will need to add your own heatsink, since the drive ships without one.
    How does it compare with the Samsung 990 Pro?
    The 990 Pro is faster, has a DRAM cache and higher endurance. The P3 Plus offers more capacity for the same outlay and is fine for games and media, but the 990 Pro is the better pick for heavy sustained writes.
    Is QLC NAND a problem?
    Only for large, sustained writes. Everyday use and gaming stay fast; copying hundreds of gigabytes at once will slow once the cache fills.
    What is in the box?
    Just the drive. No heatsink, screw or mounting hardware is included, so check your motherboard or PS5 for those.
    Does it need a heatsink?
    Not for normal desktop or laptop use. A heatsink helps in a PS5 or in tight cases during long writes.
    Where is the Crucial P3 Plus 4TB cheapest?
    At Newegg, for $563.90, as of our latest check.
