SSD good deal: the Crucial P310 1TB Gen4 is back on sale on Amazon

If you're looking to add or replace a drive in your PC, now is a good time to keep an eye on the Crucial P310 1TB. This M.2 PCIe Gen4 SSD is currently on sale during Amazon's flash sales, noted by the JVTECH editorial team, with a discount of about 20% compared to its usual price.

Why this SSD is worth checking out

The Crucial P310 strikes a good balance between speed and price. It boasts sequential speeds of up to 7,100 MB/s read and 6,000 MB/s write, which places it among the comfortable Gen4 drives for everyday use: Windows startup, game loading, and large file transfers happen without noticeable waiting.

• Capacity: 1 TB, sufficient for the system and about ten recent games.
• Interface: PCIe 4.0 NVMe, compatible with the vast majority of motherboards since AMD AM4 and recent Intel platforms.
• Form factor: M.2 2280, the standard found on almost all current desktop PCs.

Crucial also offers a shorter version (M.2 2230) designed for portable consoles like the Steam Deck or ROG Ally, practical if you want to expand their storage.

A particular pricing context in 2026

This promotion comes at a good time, as the storage market is under pressure this year. The NAND memory shortage is causing prices to rise sharply: an entry-level 1 TB SSD that sold for around €80 a year ago is now closer to €160, and 1 TB Gen5 models often exceed €200.

In this context, every discount on a reliable Gen4 is worth taking. Rather than waiting for a sustained drop, it's better to take advantage of flash sales when a proven model falls below its average price.

Our advice before buying

A few simple reflexes to avoid making a mistake:

• Check the live price on the Amazon product page on the day of purchase: flash sales are time-limited and prices can vary.
• Make sure your motherboard has a free M.2 PCIe slot. Most configurations have at least one.
• For a system drive, 1 TB is a good starting point. If you store a lot of games, consider a second drive rather than one very large one.

Always compare with other equivalent references at the moment from LDLC, Materiel.net, or Top Achat: a difference of a few euros can quickly be made up depending on stock.
