Crucial P310 SSD 1TB M.2 2230 NVMe PCIe Gen4, Up to 7,100 MB/s, Compatible with Steam Deck, ASUS ROG Ally, MSI Claw & Microsoft Surface, Solid State Drive - CT1000P310SSD2

I recently upgraded my Steam Deck with this 1TB SSD, and I am seriously impressed by its performance. Right out of the box, it was easy to install, and the speed is absolutely incredible. The read speeds of up to 7,100 MB/s make loading games and transferring files a breeze. Everything feels snappy, and I can now install even more games without worrying about space – a huge win for a gaming handheld like the Steam Deck. The size of the SSD (M.2 2230) fits perfectly into devices like the Steam Deck, ASUS ROG Ally, and even my MSI Claw. Despite its compact form factor, the performance is comparable to much larger SSDs, which is ideal for my needs. I haven’t experienced any slowdowns or issues with stability during intense gaming sessions. I also appreciate the fact that it is PCIe Gen4, offering superior data transfer speeds compared to older Gen3 models. It's definitely an upgrade for anyone using devices that support it. Additionally, the drive runs cool, which is crucial for devices like the Steam Deck that tend to heat up during long gaming sessions. Overall, this SSD has dramatically improved my gaming experience. The performance is outstanding, and the installation is straightforward. If you’re looking to boost storage and speed for your gaming device, I highly recommend this SSD.

One of the quickest m.2 drives on Amazon and all by a trusted well known UK company. Installed this in a Surface 7 Laptop to replace the 256gb one and it's been flawless since. Fast read and write speeds and works with EFI perfectly.

Very happy with this SSD. Good compromise between size, performance and price.

Used this to upgrade my Asus ROG Ally - worked great, and it just took a few minutes to install. Much more space for games now :-)

I did a DiY install of a much more bigger capacity of SSD for my Steam Deck OLED. Based from its description, this is one of the fastest and affordable SSD cards that I can find here in Amazon. This fits and works perfectly with my device. Giving it 4 stars for now as the only drawback that I can see/find is that I'm hoping that it'll last a long time of use even though the endurance of this SSD is just only 440 TBW, as compared to other SSD brands which has higher number with regards to this matter. 👍

Great

Bought to upgrade my Asus flow storage and it hasn't skipped a beat. Great speeds and performance.

I bought this to upgrade my new surface pro elite from 256Gb to 1Tb. I was a bit apprehensive as comments on some video's said some ssd's did not perform well so I decided to go for a Crucial drive having always had good results in the past. I put the ssd in a Ugreen caddy and connected to the surface usb c to c. I then discovered I could not use Acronis clone disc as it does not support ARM chips. I however downloaded a free trial version of macrium reflect for ARM 64 bit. So easy to then clone the drive and extend the partitions (videos online show you how). I then took the drive out of the caddy, installed a copper heat sink (kits on amazon) on the drive. After fully shutting down the surface i popped off the drive cover (magnetic - push on the dimple). Using a torx T3 the drive screw can be removed and old ssd wiggled out. New one is just gently pushed in and cover plate snaps back ontop. Having attached the power supply the surface just booted as normal when the switched on as if nothing had happened. Only difference is now 1Tb and faster read/write speeds - see photo.
