Random 4K performance lacking,Load times and real-world performance slow
The Crucial P5 Plus is getting long in the tooth. It still represents a simple solution for expanding your storage, however, there are several superior PCIe 4.0 picks out there that'll do a better job. Elsewhere you'll find better random 4K and sequential...
Abstract: The Crucial P5 Plus is a budget PS5 SSD that looks to rival some of the cheaper options for internal console storage in 2023. However, with sequential performance that falls behind the majority of the competition, this is one drive that can't quite be con...
Performance at deeper queue depths, Couldn’t match the official random write figures under testing, Needs a PCIe 4.0 supporting motherboard for best performance,
