High-capacity Gen4 storage with integrated cooling
The Crucial T500 4TB with heatsink CT4000T500SSD5 combines 4TB rated capacity with Gen4 NVMe performance for compatible gaming, creative and general high-performance systems. TLC NAND, Microsoft DirectStorage enablement and TCG Opal 2.01 are included in Crucial's current T500 specification.
Capacity-specific performance
The exact 4TB model is rated up to 7,000MB/s read and 6,900MB/s write rather than the higher figures used by some smaller T500 capacities.
Random workload performance
Crucial publishes up to 1,050K random-read and 1,350K random-write IOPS for the exact 4TB profile.
2,400TBW endurance
The 4TB model carries the highest endurance rating in the published T500 capacity table.
Microsoft DirectStorage
DirectStorage is enabled when the host platform, graphics hardware, operating system and software also support it.
TLC NAND
The T500 uses TLC NAND for high-performance client storage.
Integrated thermal design
The pre-installed heatsink is designed to support thermal control in compatible systems with sufficient airflow.
Who is the Crucial T500 4TB with heatsink best for?
A strong choice for
- Large game and application libraries
- Compatible PCIe Gen4 desktops
- High-resolution photo and video projects
- Fast local working storage
- Systems needing a pre-installed M.2 heatsink
Consider another model if you need
- Your system does not support M.2 PCIe NVMe storage
- You need PCIe Gen5-class performance
- Your system lacks clearance for the factory heatsink
- You need more than 4TB rated capacity
