Our take on the Crucial P510 1TB NVMe PCIe Gen5 M.2

The Crucial P510 is a 1TB PCIe Gen5 x4 NVMe M.2 2280 solid-state drive built on 3D TLC NAND. It is a mainstream Gen5 part rather than a flagship: it slots into a Gen5 M.2 slot but does not chase the extreme sequential speeds of top-tier Gen5 drives. That makes it a sensible fit for a gaming or general-purpose build where you want Gen5 headroom without paying flagship money. Against Gen4 drives it offers newer interface support; against premium Gen5 rivals it gives up peak throughput.

Pros
  • PCIe Gen5 x4 interface with NVMe
  • Standard M.2 2280 size fits most boards and laptops
  • 3D TLC NAND rather than QLC
  • 1TB capacity suits a boot drive plus games
  • Simple install, no cables or enclosure needed
Cons
  • Not a flagship Gen5 drive; peak speeds trail premium rivals
  • No heatsink included, so check your board's M.2 cooling
  • DRAM-less design can slow sustained heavy writes
  • TLC write speed drops on very large continuous transfers

Questions and answers

Is the Crucial P510 worth it over a Gen4 drive?
If your board has a Gen5 M.2 slot and you want newer interface support, yes. If you are on a Gen4-only board, a good Gen4 drive gives similar real-world feel for less.
Does it come with a heatsink?
No. Use your motherboard's M.2 heatsink or a third-party one, especially for sustained writes.
Will it fit my laptop or desktop?
It is a standard M.2 2280 drive, so it fits any slot that accepts 2280-length PCIe NVMe drives. Check that your slot is Gen5 or at least Gen4 for full speed.
Is it compatible with a PS5?
The PS5 requires a PCIe Gen4 or Gen5 M.2 2280 NVMe drive with a heatsink. This drive meets the interface and size requirements, but you must add a heatsink.
What is in the box?
The drive itself. No heatsink, screw or mounting hardware is included, so have your board's M.2 screw ready.
How does it compare with the Crucial T700?
The T700 is Crucial's flagship Gen5 drive with much higher sequential speeds and typically a heatsink option. The P510 is the more modest, mainstream Gen5 choice.

At Newegg, for $193.80, 22% under what the other stores charge, as of our latest check.
