The Crucial T705 will be the fastest SSD on the market based on a set of leaked pre-launch specs that give us a new record for data transfers from a consumer storage drive: 14.5 GB per second in read mode.

You already know that the flash storage market has stalled somewhat due to the need to control the high temperatures found in PCIe Gen5 drives and the commercial issues that always arise when electronic products are brought to market. Perhaps this is how it can be understood that even Samsung, WD or Kioxia did not make a generational leap. Another major company, Micron, launched this type of drive under its Crucial brand.

Crucial T705, very fast

The drive is an M.2 SSD that connects to a PCIe 5.0 interface. It is also compatible with previous standards, although it does not offer maximum performance in these cases. Use the best memory available from Micron B58R FortisFlash TLC NANDwhile the driver must be a Phison E26.

with all that his performance level is record breaking: 14.5 GB/s and 12.7 GB/s with sequential read/write transfer. Also notable is its random performance of 1,550,000/1,800,000 IOPS. They will be offered on the market in several versions, with and without a cooler, which indicates this They can be mounted on both desktop computers and laptops.

The cooling system does not use a fan, but uses a large, multi-level radiator. The manufacturer calls the white version a special edition, but we really don’t know the reason, because it is identical to the other one.

The Crucial T705 will be sold in storage capacities 1 and 2 TB as well as another 4 TB as the top of the range and which is the one that achieves maximum performance. We need to know if it has integrated DRAM memory for cache and resistance rate in Tbytes written (TBW). We don’t know the price either. Let’s hope they settle for a series that will be distributed with a five-year warranty.
