The CT1000P310SSD5 is a Crucial P310 series 1TB NVMe solid state drive in the M.2 2280 form factor on a PCIe 4.0 x4 interface, built on 232-layer 3D QLC NAND. It is rated at 7100MB/s sequential read and 6000MB/s sequential write, with 220TBW of write endurance, and operates from 0C to 70C. QLC NAND stores four bits per cell, which raises areal density and lowers cost per gigabyte relative to TLC at the expense of write endurance and sustained write performance.

An M.2 2280 PCIe 4.0 drive at these read speeds is bought as the primary boot and application volume in consumer and mainstream commercial systems: desktops, laptops and mini PCs, DIY and system-integrator builds, and handheld gaming devices, as well as a secondary game and media library drive. The 2280 length is the standard M.2 slot size on almost all current motherboards and notebooks, which is what makes it the default upgrade path from SATA. QLC NAND and the 220TBW rating place this drive in read-heavy general-purpose use rather than sustained-write or server workloads, where a TLC or enterprise drive would be the appropriate choice. Buyers are PC OEMs and system builders, retail and e-tail channel resellers, and IT teams handling storage upgrades and refreshes.
