[Hardware] Crucial T705 Review

[Aronus]

Gamers, videographers, graphic designers, braggarts, and perfectionists, take note: Micron's Crucial T705 (starts at $239.99 for 1TB; $439.99 for 2TB with heatsink as tested) is simply the fastest internal solid-state drive (SSD) we have ever tested, and by a meaty margin.

This PCI Express 5.0 powerhouse tallied a Crystal DiskMark sequential read speed fully 15% better than our previous high scorer, and its sequential write score bested its nearest rival by nearly 8%. This Editors' Choice winner for PCIe 5.0 M.2 drives also easily set all-time record scores in the 3DMark Storage gaming-centric test and the PCMark 10 Overall general storage benchmark. Naturally, you pay a premium for such excellence, which is the T705's only potential flaw. But if you are all about the raw speed, at the moment no other SSD can top it.
