Crucial launched its new T710 SSD here in Taipei, Taiwan, at Computex 2025, touting speeds of up to a blistering 14.9 GB/s and 2.2 million IOPS over the PCIe 5.0 interface. The T710 has numerous advantages over the prior-gen model, the T705, which we found to be the fastest SSD on the market at the time and a go-to recommendation on our list of Best SSDs. Crucial also announced the X10 series of portable SSDs that offer up to 8TB of storage in a slim, attractive form factor. The company also teased a USB4 portable SSD prototype that delivers up to 4 GB/s of throughput.
The Crucial T710 is the focal point, though. Crucial has upped the performance ante on its fastest SSD while cramming it into a slimmer form factor suitable for laptops and lowering power consumption and heat.
