Crucial's excellent durability and warranty combine with high-end PCIe 4.0 performance.

The PCIe 4.0 standard really only came to market a couple of years ago, and since then storage manufacturers have been upgrading their lineups to accommodate new demand. Crucial is one of the top names when it comes to PC storage, boasting a collection of solid-state storage with everything from external and internal SATA and M.2 drives. Its first PCIe 4.0 drive — the Crucial P5 Plus — became available late last year, with three sizes from which to choose. I tested the 1TB P5 Plus to see how it compares to other popular PCIe 4.0 SSDs and whether it's worth the money.
