    • Update 8/16/21 5:30am PT: Crucial has swapped out the TLC flash that powered the initial P2 SSD we tested with QLC flash, severely reducing performance. We've written an investigation into that matter, which you can read here, with our results showing that the 'new' drives are nearly four times slower at transferring files than the original, read speeds are half as fast in real-world tests, and sustained write speeds have dropped to USB 2.0-like levels of a mere 40 MBps. As such, we do not recommend purchasing this drive.

  • These are good as game drives or other read intensive operations. Have also used them for my main windows drive on my development PC with no issues. Would not recommend for video editing/transcoding. But if you have a spinner to replace this will kill it.

  • Got one! thank you for posting this deal!

  • this is not a very good ssd given the updated review, this is a better deal: https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/729376
