Community Reviews

This Crucial P3 Plus 4TB NVMe SSD is a budget Gen4 drive that stands out for large-capacity storage, but it is not a high-end sustained-write performer. The drive is described as DRAMless and prone to throttling once the SLC cache fills, and a prior 512GB unit was reported as QLC with weak performance. Pricing looks elevated versus past sales, with prior buys around $190 to $220, though current storage prices are being pushed up across the market. Availability and Amazon delivery also appear inconsistent, so it is best viewed as a roomy but compromise-heavy option.

Common Questions (4)

  • It is cheaper than some recent 4TB listings, but not as low as prior sale prices. One buyer paid $220 on Black Friday and another paid $190 during BF 2024, so this price is higher than those past deals but still far below the $500+ offers seen elsewhere.

  • Yes, it can throttle heavily once the SLC cache fills during sustained writes. The drive has no DRAM, so speed drops are expected on a budget NVMe, especially under long write workloads.

  • Availability and delivery can be inconsistent. One report says Amazon would not deliver to a North Carolina residential address, and another says the item showed as not available even though other Amazon offers were listed.

    ThackeryBinksCleverGoat2494

  • It can come in either QLC or TLC variants, so the exact NAND type needs checking by controller revision, firmware, and NAND chip. The QLC version is reported to perform poorly for more than basic storage use.

not a good deal, got one last black Friday for 220. THanks for the post.
Have you seen the price trend? A price is "good" if it's below the current market price.

Got one for 512G last year from OEM, and I was extremely disappointed by the performance. There are two variants for this drive, QLC and TLC. You can check it by looking at controller revision, firmware, and NAND chip. Mine was QLC and couldn't do anything except from storing games. Not sure about 4T tho, better check out yourself.

Do you have any idea what's going on with RAM and storage with the recent AI shortage? Take a look at bestbuy and you'll see 4tbs for over 1k. They announced this around end of November and everything is already sky rocketing. DDR5, nvme storage are the main items but it will trickle down to anything that uses RAM. This won't just come and go either. Expect recovery in maybe mid-2027, or longer - Until then, this will be the norm for a good deal on RAM and storage.

This is the 3rd of 4th deal in the past 2 weeks on where Amazon says it cannot deliver to our address (North Carolina, residential) on different deals, from this hard drive, to small hand tools, etc. Many years of Amazon Prime of receiving numerous packages weekly, and never once had this message until the past 2 weeks.
Same problem here. Amazon used to be painless, but it hassles me more every year.

Same in California. Maybe have to call Amazon to see why these are popping up all of a sudden. Seen this 3x this week on deals.

I had this and returned it quickly because the throttling was SO bad.

Not sure what u mean? Do u mean temps or speed? Doubt its temps. These drives dont have dram. It will throttle with sustained write after the slc cache fills up. It is a budget nvme after all. Even drives with dram has its limits.

Same here. I've been noticing this more and more this past week or two, after never having seen this message before. Does anyone know what this message is about?
Something's wrong with the referral link SD uses with Amazon. Delete the item from cart, search for it on amazon, and it'll work fine.

First time I ever encountered this "error" message was back in 2023 when I was attempting to purchase hemp wraps from Amazon. I believe it might be due to some restriction pertaining to the state it's being delivered in.

It's freaking ridiculous.. these were under $200 less than a year ago.. this AI slop getting shoved down by the conglomerates have done it again, it's like the mining era all over again.
