Crucial T700 2TB Gen5 NVMe M.2 internal SSD with heatsink

SKU CH-0EV1-WSRTG

A 2 TB Gen5 NVMe M.2 drive reaching 12,400 MB/s reads and 11,800 MB/s writes with an integrated aluminum and copper heatsink

  • Sequential reads up to 12,400 MB/s accelerate game loads
  • Sequential writes up to 11,800 MB/s speed up 8K video exports
  • Random performance up to 1,500K IOPS keeps heavy workloads responsive
  • DirectStorage cuts texture render time by 60 % and lowers CPU use by 99 %
  • Premium aluminum and nickel-plated copper heatsink dissipates heat without extra fans

Crucial T700 2TB Gen5 NVMe M.2 SSD with Heatsink

The Crucial T700 2TB Gen5 NVMe M.2 SSD with heatsink delivers sequential reads up to 12,400 MB/s and writes up to 11,800 MB/s. It uses Micron 232-layer TLC NAND and a premium aluminum and nickel-plated copper heatsink. The drive targets gaming, photography, video editing and design workloads on Intel 13th Gen and AMD Ryzen 7000 platforms.

Sustained load behaviour with premium heatsink

The aluminum and nickel-plated copper heatsink maximises heat dissipation without noisy fans or liquid cooling when paired with adequate system airflow. Microsoft DirectStorage support enables up to 60% faster texture renders and up to 99% less CPU utilisation during heavy workloads. The drive maintains performance under sustained use thanks to the integrated thermal solution.

Upgrade from Gen4 NVMe drives

This drive replaces Gen4 NVMe SSDs with nearly 2x faster speeds for users needing maximum throughput. The jump is worth it for workloads that benefit from 12,400 MB/s sequential reads and DirectStorage optimisation. Buyers without PCIe 5.0 motherboards or those needing only Gen4 performance will not fully utilise this drive.

Questions about this item

How hot does the aluminum and nickel-plated copper heatsink run under sustained 12,400 MB/s reads?

The premium heatsink is designed to dissipate heat without noisy fans or liquid cooling when paired with adequate system airflow.

Must my motherboard have a PCIe 5.0 M.2 slot to use this drive?

It is backward compatible with Gen3 and Gen4 motherboards, though speeds will be limited to the slot's maximum.

Will the T700 work alongside my older PCIe 4.0 NVMe drive without conflicts?

Yes, it is backward compatible with Gen4 motherboards, so both drives can operate on the same platform.
