Crucial’s P5 Plus 1TB SSD is now available for under £90

Crucial’s P5 Plus SSD is now available at its lowest ever price

Software can take up a lot of space, and that means that most gamers and creators would likely benefit from having more storage within their systems, and while HDDs still offer the best value in terms of cost per GB, SSDs are the superior option if storage performance and application loading times are anywhere on your radar. 

Crucial’s P5 Plus SSD are designed to offer users strong value for money and strong performance levels, boasting 6,600 MB/s sequential read speeds and a 1TB option that is now available for under £90. That’s a great value proposition for those who want PCIe 4.0 performance on a budget, or a PS5 compatible SSD (when used with a heatsink) that doesn’t break the bank.

Today, Crucial’s P5 Plus SSD is available for £88.98 on Amazon, the cheapest that we have ever seen this SSD sell for. This drive would be an excellent boot SSD for a new gaming system, or a great upgrade option for laptops or PCs that utilise M.2 NVMe storage. And for those who want more storage capacity, this drive’s 2TB model is available for £180.49 on Amazon.

With most modern PC games recommending SSD storage, it makes sense for gamers to consider adding additional storage to their systems, either for expanding their videogame library, or to give their favourite games much faster loading times than your old HDD can provide. With both Xbox Series X/S and PlayStation 5 using SSD storage out of the box, it is only a matter of time before SSDs will become a must for most new games, and HDDs will be simply too slow to run games optimally during gameplay.
