Crucial P310 2280 CT500P310SSD8 500 GB

Crucial P310 2280 is a typical representative of the consumer segment of Gen4 SSD, combining high speed, compactness, and stability. The drive is aimed at everyday tasks, gaming loads, and multimedia work. Despite its limited write endurance, it is appealing for its high read speed and energy-efficient cooling. Using the PCI-E 4.0 interface, the P310 delivers up to 6000 MB/s in sequential reading and up to 3500 MB/s in writing.

These specifications make it a versatile solution for systems where frequent reading of large files is required: installing games, launching applications, or accessing multimedia libraries. The drive uses QLC 3D NAND memory — a budget-friendly yet energy-efficient solution that allows for a moderate price. The design includes a graphene heatsink that distributes heat evenly, ensuring stable operation without throttling even under prolonged loads.

Such cooling is especially convenient for laptops and compact PCs, where minimal thickness and the absence of bulky components are important. The TBW resource is 110 TB, which is sufficient for most home and office scenarios not related to intensive rewrites. Meanwhile, the mean time between failures — 1.77 million hours — matches the level of more expensive models, confirming the device's high reliability.
