Crucial P310 1TB

Part numberCT1000P310SSD801

The short answer

The Crucial P310 1TB is a 1 TB NVMe SSD in the M.2 2280 size with a PCIe 4.0 interface, for mini PC owners who want to add or replace storage in a standard slot. It has no heatsink fitted, so cooling has to come from the machine or a heatsink you add.

Specifications

Capacity is 1 TB. Sequential read is 7100 MB/s. The interface is NVMe PCIe 4.0, so a slot that runs at PCIe 4.0 suits it, while a slot limited to PCIe 3.0 runs it slower. The drive is M.2 2280, so your machine needs a slot that takes that size. It arrives with no heatsink fitted.

Which mini PCs it fits

An M.2 2280 NVMe drive goes in an M.2 2280 slot, and PCIe 4.0 speed needs a slot that runs at PCIe 4.0. It fits the Dell Pro Max Micro FCM2250, GEEKOM A8 Max, GMKtec EVO-X2 and HP Z2 Mini G1a. In the Beelink EQR5 and GMKtec G11 Plus it fits but runs at PCIe 3.0 speed. The Apple Mac mini (M6) has no M.2 slot, so it does not fit. For the ACEMAGIC AM08 Pro we have not confirmed it fits, because its number of M.2 slots is not recorded.

Checked against every mini PC sold on amazon.co.uk, from the specifications we hold for each machine.

Before you buy

Where the slot runs at PCIe 3.0 speed, as in the Beelink EQR5, GMKtec G11 Plus and ACEMAGIC AM06 Pro, expect less than the 7100 MB/s read figure. Crucial does not state the sequential write speed, endurance, DRAM cache or whether the drive is single-sided.

Common questions

Does the Crucial P310 1TB fit a mini PC with an M.2 slot?

It fits an M.2 2280 NVMe slot, such as in the GEEKOM A8 Max or HP Z2 Mini G1a. The Apple Mac mini (M6) has no M.2 slot, so it cannot use this drive.

Will it reach full speed in a Beelink EQR5?

It fits, but that machine's slot runs at PCIe 3.0 speed, so the drive does not run at its PCIe 4.0 level there. Expect less than the 7100 MB/s read figure.

Does the Crucial P310 1TB come with a heatsink?

No, no heatsink is fitted. Plan on cooling from your machine or a separate heatsink. Crucial also does not state the drive's endurance or whether it has a DRAM cache.
