Extreme Gen5 storage with passive thermal management
The Crucial T700 4TB CT4000T700SSD5 combines Micron 232-layer TLC NAND, a Phison E26 controller and a custom aluminium and nickel-plated copper heatsink. It is designed for compatible Gen5 desktops used for gaming, high-resolution media, 3D rendering and other storage-intensive workloads.
12,400/11,800MB/s
The exact 4TB model is rated up to 12,400MB/s sequential read and 11,800MB/s sequential write.
Up to 1,500K IOPS
Crucial specifies random performance up to 1,500K IOPS for the T700 series profile.
Micron 232-layer TLC NAND
The drive uses Micron TLC NAND with a Phison E26 Gen5 controller.
Custom passive heatsink
The aluminium and nickel-plated copper heatsink is designed to reduce thermal throttling with suitable airflow.
DirectStorage support
Microsoft DirectStorage is supported when the remainder of the system and software are compatible.
Backward compatibility
The T700 can operate in compatible PCIe Gen4 and Gen3 systems at their lower interface speeds.
Who is the Crucial T700 4TB with heatsink best for?
A strong choice for
- Compatible PCIe Gen5 desktop systems
- High-performance gaming and DirectStorage workloads
- High-resolution video editing
- 3D rendering and content creation
- Builds needing a factory-installed SSD heatsink
Consider another model if you need
- Your system lacks an M.2 PCIe NVMe slot
- Your motherboard cannot accommodate the heatsink
- You need a low-heat or low-power storage option
- Your workload will not benefit from Gen5 performance
