The Crucial P1 is an NVMe 1.3 compliant SSD that communicates over a PCIe 3.1 x4 connection. Unlike many new SSDs, including the Crucial MX500 and Intel SSD 660p, the Crucial P1 doesn't support AES 256-bit hardware encryption.
Crucial's Adaptive Thermal Protection protects the components from overheating, and the RAIN (Redundant Array of Independent NAND) feature provides device-level data redundancy as a further layer of protection. The P1 also features power loss protection for data-at-rest and has a multi-step data integrity algorithm that protects against data loss. It also has an impressive 80mW idle power consumption rating. The P1 supports the NVMe low power states, so active power consumption is rated at just 100mW and stretches up to a maximum of 8W. Even Crucial’s own MX500 offers almost twice the endurance. Some SSDs, like Corsair's new MP510, offer more than eight times more endurance than the P1. Many 1TB class NVMe SSDs have endurance ratings of up to 600TBW. However, the competition has stepped up its game. That's the same endurance rating as Intel's QLC-powered 660p. The P1 can absorb 100TB of data writes per 500GB of SSD capacity, which equates to 200TBW of endurance for the 1TB model. The P1 comes with a lengthy five-year warranty, but as we expect from a QLC SSD, endurance comes up short.
Crucial's MSRP of $109.99 for the 500GB model and $219.99 for the 1TB model are higher than the Intel SSD 660p and most SATA SSDs but undercuts most other NVMe SSDs. The 500GB and 1000GB (1TB) drives are available at launch, but the 2TB model will come to market in November. That means the 500GB model should have a maximum buffer capacity of roughly 75GB and the 1TB model expands to 150GB. This buffer can be located anywhere in the NAND array and consumes up to 14% of the usable capacity. In addition to the fixed buffer, the drive has a dynamic buffer that expands or contracts based upon the amount of data stored on the drive. The drive has a fixed SLC buffer capacity of 5GB on the 500GB drive and 12GB on the 1TB model. Crucial's implementation takes a two-step approach to buffering. Like most modern SSDs, the P1 has an SLC buffer that absorbs incoming data to boost performance. The P1's firmware is exclusive to Micron, but the feature set is suspiciously similar to Intel's SSD 660p, which also just happens to come with the same components. To achieve these speeds, the P1 uses Crucial's Hybrid-Dynamic Write Acceleration technology. As listed above, performance varies based upon the capacity of the drive.
#CRUCIAL CLONE TO SSD SERIES#
Crucial’s P1 series delivers up to 2/1.75GB/s of sequential read/write throughput and up to 250,000/250,000 random read/write IOPS.
