Crucial P310 1TB M.2 2280 NVMe internal SSD

SKU CH-RFA7-M8MJY

1 TB NVMe drive with sequential reads up to 7100 MB/s for faster gaming and booting on Gen3 and Gen4 systems

  • Sequential reads up to 7100 MB/s accelerate game loads
  • Faster boot times get you working sooner
  • PCIe Gen4 NVMe interface suits modern laptops and desktops
  • Backward compatible with Gen3 systems for easy upgrades
  • M.2 2280 form factor fits standard internal slots

Drive identity and target users

The Crucial P310 is a 1 TB internal solid-state drive in the M.2 2280 form factor. It uses a PCIe Gen4 NVMe interface to deliver sequential reads up to 7100 MB/s. The drive suits laptop and desktop owners who want faster game loading and quicker system boot times.

Compatibility checks before ordering

Verify that your motherboard or laptop provides an M.2 slot keyed for PCIe NVMe and that the slot accepts 2280-length modules. Confirm the platform supports PCIe Gen3 or Gen4 operation so the drive can negotiate a link. Ensure the system BIOS or UEFI is current enough to recognise NVMe storage at boot.

Behaviour under sustained load

The quoted 7100 MB/s figure represents a peak sequential-read burst rather than a continuous throughput guarantee. During extended writes or prolonged heavy workloads the controller will throttle to manage thermals, so sustained speeds will be lower. The drive remains compatible with both Gen3 and Gen4 platforms, but sustained performance scales with the link generation actually negotiated.

Questions about this item

What comes in the Crucial P310 1TB box and do I need a separate heatsink or screw?

The package contains the Crucial P310 1TB M.2 2280 NVMe drive only. A mounting screw and any heatsink must be supplied by the motherboard or purchased separately.

Should I choose the 1TB P310 or a larger capacity for my PCIe Gen4 laptop?

The 1TB P310 delivers sequential reads up to 7100 MB/s on PCIe Gen4 and works on Gen3 systems; pick a larger capacity only if you need more space for games and media.

What does the 7100 MB/s figure mean when the drive is installed in my desktop?

That is the peak sequential read speed on a PCIe Gen4 slot; real-world game loads and OS boots will be lower but still noticeably quicker than Gen3 drives.
