I bought a Crucial P3 4TB. After about 18-19% full, write speed for large files drops to about 70MB/s. You could say that's normal QLC performance, but the read speed drops at the same time. There is some serious problem with this drive design.

I have done extensive testing on this, and got a confirmation from Crucial that my drive is behaving as designed. I passed my return window, and now I'm stuck with this drive that's slower than my mechanical drives.

Almost all the crystal diskmark results you can find of this drive on amazon or even some tech review media, they only tested the default 1GB sequential. Fill this drive above 20% capacity, then run 8GB test and see for yourself.

I have access to Crucial P3 Plus at work, and I did the same tests, and got similar results.

Added my test results

Our community has rated this post as helpful. If you agree, why not thank brownedpants

Seems that "Unfortunately, our CT4000P3PSSD8 SSD doesn't have the DRAM cache." per a question asked. Good price if you need it now, but a samsung 990 pro was just $20 more recently. Maybe same pricing for similar during BF?

From what I read, Samsung has reliability issues.

Better off paying a little extra for the Lexar NM790, WD SN850X, or NEXSTORAGE drives.
They have DRAM + TLC (Lexar uses a special HBM system) and have Gen 4 speeds.

I've read this has comparably poor endurance, so you might want to consider if you are looking for a drive for any kind of photo / video editing, or anything that will require a lot of writing, but for a game drive it seems to be a solid option.

Yeah, QLC drive. I agree that it'll serve fine as a game or storage drive, but you can get 4tb TLC w/ DRAM for $200 right now. $20 difference from much better TBW and overall performance seems worth it over the Crucial P3 Plus.

From what I've read, prices on memory is going back up. May want to go ahead and upgrade now. I bought this last time around, very good drive for storing games, and compatible with DirectStorage, should that tech ever become more mainstream.

I haven't read anything on this, but I have been watching the prices a little. Seems like they were on a downward trend in the first half of 2023, then kinda plateaued mid year. Now seems to be ticking back up. But this is only from my perspective.
