The Crucial P5 Plus is the best value ‘second-gen’ PCIe 4.0 drive, with sequential speeds up to 6600MB/s that make it ideal for anything from mid-range to high-end gaming rigs or the PS5. Its TLC NAND and DRAM cache also mean that performance remains high even in sustained write scenarios, unlike cheaper QLC/no-DRAM drives.

The Crucial P5 Plus normally costs £100+, but today it’s down to £92.51 on Amazon UK - one of the best prices we’ve seen for this model although not quitethe best ever.

Here’s what we said about the P5 Plus the last time it was on sale:

The P5 Plus is definitely worth picking up at this reduced price, but if you don’t need the higher speeds, theCrucial P3 is a cheaper optionthat uses QLC NAND flash memory and a DRAM-less design. The 2TB model is currently down to £105, so getting double the storage for not much more is a pretty good deal - it just depends if you need something that can handle sustained writes (P5) or something that is just fast for regular use (P3).

So what do you think? Is it a goer? Let me know!
