I swapped out the stock 512GB M.2 SSD on my HP ProBook 450 15.6 inch G10 Laptop (Model#: 822P5UT#ABA) with this Crucial T500 M.2 SSD and it runs considerably faster now. Booting seems quicker too. The ample storage space is quite nice👌 Install was stupid easy and only took a few minutes. You'll need a precision screwdriver set if you're upgrading your laptop. I used a SABRENT USB-C M.2 SSD Enclosure to externally connect this SSD to my laptop in order to clone my old SSD to it (before installing/swapping SSDs). The Acronis drive cloning software (available for free on Crucial's website) is quick and easy to use. You don't need to format the new drive beforehand, the cloning software handles everything. I highly recommend upgrading to one of these Crucial T500 SSDs, it's absolutely worth the money. Side note: If you're upgrading your HP ProBook, there's also a secondary SSD slot next to the battery. The HP specs/datasheet are vague about what size M.2 is compatible for this secondary slot, but some online reviews suggest a shorter form-factor M.2 2230 (the ProBook's primary SSD is a M.2 2280, which is physically longer). This M.2 2230 suggestion appears to be wrong, as I installed one and it isn't long enough to reach the screw hole post (which secures the SSD in place). It still works though and the SSD sits firmly in place, even despite not being screwed down. I haven't had issues with it and I handle my laptop somewhat roughly. Also, if you do decide to install a second SSD, you'll need a screw for the screw post (it doesn't come with one).

It came just as described, installed and working perfectly, package was also sealed and brand new, it is working at 43c without heatsink when it's not plugged in and working at 53c when plugged in so the temperature is alright! Bought the 4tb one and the storage is just what I need, it installed everything extremely fast including large games.

To start with, as we all know you get what you pay for. For the most part most NVME PCI-E GEN 4 drives are usually going to be good, but to get quality and a good TLC drive with an actual DRAM buffer costs extra. I got this during Prime Day. As of this review it's still on sale, but being an Amazon Prime member during Prime Day I got an extra bonus cash back on my Amazon Prime credit card so it took the price down a little more. The problem is 4tb NVME drives aren't cheap and the good ones with a DRAM buffer cost extra because they last longer and generally give better results for extended write periods. This drive like any other NVME GEN 4 drive is fast and it's great for video editing. It's also great for gaming, but IMO I feel this drive is too expensive for that purpose alone. The only drawback is this drive isn't the best for read/writes with smaller files. Since I'm using this as a video edit drive I feel it's a good investment. So far it seems very snappy and has plenty of room. Once I get my RAM upgrade I should be set. My current setup, Ryzen 7 9800X3D. MSI MAG B850 TOMAHAWK MAX WIFI motherboard. PNY RTX 5090 EPIC-X RGB OC GPU. WD Black SN850X as a boot drive. 2 other 2tb NVME GEN 4 drives for applications and games. 1 Seagate Barracuda 8tb for archive storage. 1 WD Blue HDD 4tb for general purpose storage. 1 Crucial BX500 2tb SSD and 1 Crucial MX500 2tb SSD for fast storage and games. A Western Digital Blue 2tb HDD I use in an external bay for backup programs, pictures and financial files. A firmware unlocked LG 16x Bluray Burner put in an external enclosure for backing up my bought and paid for Bluray movies so I don't scratch them up. Currently 64gb(2x32gb kit) of Klevv DDR5 6000 cl30. I do a lot of video editing with my movies to upscale them and repair image quality on some of my older DVDs and BLU-RAY movies. I use automatic programs like UniFAB and VideoProc CONVERTER AI which a good quality NVME drive is a must to get the most our of these programs.

i installed the crucial t500 2tb gen4 nvme ssd in my pc and it’s been a solid upgrade for speed and storage. the drive comes in a sleek single-sided m.2 2280 form factor, which made installation straightforward—no clearance issues in my laptop or desktop m.2 slot. it’s rated for blazing fast sequential read speeds up to 7400 mb/s and writes up to 7000 mb/s, which definitely translates to snappy boot times, fast game loads, and quick file transfers in everyday use. after using it for several weeks, my system feels noticeably more responsive compared to my old ssd, especially when moving large files or launching multiple programs. the drive stays cool under typical loads and comes with a 5-year warranty plus a 1200 tbw endurance rating, so i feel confident it’ll last a good long while without slowing down. the included software from crucial helped me keep an eye on the health and performance of the drive, and i liked the easy firmware update process they provide. it’s also compatible with ps5 if you’re looking to expand your gaming console storage, fitting nicely with no issues. while it’s not the absolute fastest gen4 ssd out there (some competitors do edge it out by a bit), it’s a great balance of speed, reliability, and price. overall, the crucial t500 2tb has been a dependable workhorse in my setup offering fast, consistent gen4 nvme performance and enough capacity for all my games, media, and work files. if you want solid speed without breaking the bank on a gen5 model, this is definitely worth considering.

Well, what can I say. This is a very speedy SSD to have in your system even in today's games. Games will not really noticeably benefit from read and right speeds over 3 GB per second based on what they are doing. But I am coming from a PCI3 laptop with an SSD that maxed out around 3200 MB/s. This SSD also allows you to download Crucial's proprietary SSD software and enable a feature called 'momentum cache' which appears to significantly boost effective read and write speeds. The caveat is that it is streaming that additional data from RAM so if you are doing a file transferring activity with this feature on and your computer suddenly loses power, it will lose the data. *IN 2026 & 2027* This was a great SSD to have when I bought it for about $124.99 last year. Pretty much peak Gen 4 speeds and 2 TBs of storage. However, I would still wince at purchasing this drive at this price and would likely settle for slower speeds. I really think this is a good drive but I would personally pay attention to lightning deals that will occasionally happen on other Gen 4 drives. The buildapc subreddit is a great resource to monitor.

This is a very fast pcie4 drive at any price. Included testing is from the second boot of the drive and using the newest firmware (P8CR003 with SLC cache and PS5 tweaks) installed into the #1 M.2 slot (direct to CPU) on a z790 board paired with an i9-14900k and DDR5-8200 ram. The Crucial T500 uses the newer Phison E25 controller. It is a very cool running chip as can be seen being cooled by a factory motherboard heatsink. Idle is 32-33c and load is 44-47c. It's also very fast and is currently only 4 channel and single sided with two NAND flash chips (on the 500/1tb/2tb models currently available) where competing pcie4 drives are typically much hotter running 8 channel chips. The NAND flash used is the current best chip in use, the same as the current M.2 speed champ, the pcie T705. Been using Crucial memory since the late 1990's. I've never had an issue with them and their support is great if needed. The Acronis TrueImage software quickly made a good copy of my existing windows boot drive, and the Crucial Executive software works alright. (Tho I would uninstall them both after the initial use of them). Definitely recommend this drive to anyone needing an m.2 / nvme / pcie drive that is not wanting to pay (currently) almost 3x the price for a pcie5 drive that is generally the same speed practice because it uses the exact same NAND flash with the same generation of controller. The difference being double the sustained read/write.

Got this at 2tb for $101, and, judging by how the prices have shifted around since then, that might be the cheapest anybody will be able to find a comparable NVME drive for quite a while. For my personal home server and gaming applications this has been a flawless secondary drive. Now on paper this is a top performing drive and in the majority of benchmarks (and my usage) it does perform exactly as promised, but there are slight issues with random and sustained writes that have been reported on by enthusiast sites like storagereview. Do your research on how relevant that may be to your use case before using this as a boot drive for a workstation or putting it in an expensive ZFS array. But as a drive where I keep media files like books and some program/game installations, I haven't had a single problem or noticeably bad spike in latency in a month of use. Pros: -Good price and warranty -Very fast secondary drive for games and virtual machine storage (with DRAM which is rare in 7k+ MB/s read drives) -Power efficient -Issues mentioned may be fixed by driver updates (and are next to irrelevant to what I use it for) Cons: -... Issues may not be fixed by driver updates and there just might be a reason Crucial discounted this first wave of these so quickly that isn't it being the holiday season
