The bonanza of savings that is Prime Big Deal Days may have come to an end, but there are still plenty of discounts out there for the taking. Take Crucial P510, for example, a Gen 5 SSD that provides a welcome price to performance ratio.

“Harness the power of NVMe technology with the high-speed P510 SSD.” – Crucial
On Amazon US, Crucial P510 1TB is available for purchase for as little as $79.99, down 20% ($20) from the drive’s typical pricing. UK shoppers can get in on this action too, with a smaller but nonetheless welcome 9% (£7.50) discount, bringing the SSD down to £79.99. Both mark the best ever price for this particular model.
Crucial P510 2TB is also up for sale, complete with a steeper 36% ($74.02) cut, pushing the drive down to $133.98. This is just $2 over the SSD’s most-affordable price to date, which while not a best-ever deal still leaves the SSD an enticing purchase. Importantly, this larger capacity variant offers better value in terms of gigabyte per dollar.
Part of the reason Crucial P510 is so affordable comes down to its sequential read and write speeds, of 11,000MB/s and 9,500MB/s, respectively. While neither push the SSD’s Gen 5 interface to its limit, both are still much faster than Gen 4 alternatives and provide more than enough speed for most tasks. Whether you need a zippy drive for gaming and/or general storage, this’ll more than fit the bill.
Affordability hasn’t come at the expense of reliability for Crucial P510. The SSD boasts an endurance rating of 600TBW per TB but also arrives with a five-year warranty too. Suffice to say, your data’s in safe hands.
Note that the models I’ve highlighted don’t come with built-in heatsinks. You can purchase Crucial P510 complete with cooling via the more-expensive models, but I’d sooner recommend saving a few bob and putting the SSD underneath your motherboard’s heatsinks instead.
