The Crucial P310 2TB SSD With Speeds Up To 7,100MB/s Is A Great Deal On Amazon, Offering Great Speeds And A Decent Storage Upgrade For $213.99

The SSD pricing situation has gotten a lot worse since the DRAM shortage hit, and when you see high-performance consumer solid-state drives in 2TB capacities available for over $300 and sometimes even as high as $400, that’s when you know things are getting out of control.

Luckily, there are some hidden gems listed on places like Amazon, like the Crucial P310, with a 2TB capacity and heatsink version for $213.99. Compared to its price with others, this is probably the most affordable SSD with the capacities mentioned above.

The higher speed means the Crucial P310 can be inserted into the PS5 to provide increased speed and storage

With read and write speeds reaching 7,100MB/s and 6,000MB/s respectively, the Crucial P310 is one of the fastest PCIe NVMe Gen 4 drives available on Amazon. Best of all, it comes with a heatsink already installed, giving you the option to insert it into the PS5 or remove it to accommodate the drive in a thinner form factor like a gaming laptop.

Whatever you decide, you’ll be glad you made the right decision because $213.99 is actually a bargain considering the prices on Amazon. The Crucial P310 also supports the standard 2280 form factor, meaning you’ll have no trouble fitting it in most M.2 slots.

One precaution we would remind system builders and console owners looking to purchase the Crucial P310 is to keep it cool enough. For those who don’t know, PCIe NVMe Gen 4 SSDs tend to get very hot, which is why a heatsink has been provided in the first place. We also won’t ask buyers to brainstorm their purchasing decisions, as it may be a long time before you see another deal like this.
