Crucial T710 PCIe Gen5 NVMe SSD Review – Swinging for the Fences

So what about the value proposition? Here’s a breakdown of the different models offered in the T710 family, with list pricing from Crucial:

  • 1TB – CT1000T710SSD8 – $179.99 USD
  • 2TB – CT2000T710SSD8 – $279.99 USD
  • 4TB – CT4000T710SSD8 – $549.99 USD
  • 1TB with heatsink – CT1000T710SSD5 – $199.99 USD
  • 2TB with heatsink – CT2000T710SSD5 – $299.99 USD
  • 4TB with heatsink – CT4000T710SSD5 – $569.99 USD

Our review sample was the 2TB, non-heatsink model, which carries a list price of $279.99 USD. This is $20 lower than the $299.99 list price of the Samsung 9100 PRO. We will see if Crucial decides to compete with the aggressive discounts we see from Samsung (currently a 20% discount, which takes the 9100 PRO down to $239.99).

Bottom line, the Crucial T710 is one of the fastest SSDs on the planet, and in some cases the fastest we have ever tested. It is a massive upgrade over the previous T705; an absolute monster at QD1, and extremely adept at random read/write operations. Depending on your needs this might be the high performance NVMe drive to buy in 2025.
