CORSAIR MP700 Elite 2TB M.2 NVME Gen5 Solid State Drive ( SSD )

The CORSAIR MP700 Elite 2TB is a high-performance internal solid state drive built on the PCIe Gen5 (PCIe 5.0) interface and operating over the NVMe 2.0 protocol. Designed for enthusiast desktop builders who demand rapid storage throughput, it delivers sequential read speeds of up to 10,000 MB/s and sequential write speeds of up to 8,500 MB/s — figures drawn directly from the manufacturer's published specification for model CSSD-F2000GBMP700ENH. The drive pairs that bandwidth headroom with high-density 3D TLC NAND flash, a NAND type that balances transfer performance with long-term cell endurance. With a rated total bytes written (TBW) figure of 1,200 TBW, the MP700 Elite 2TB is well-suited to sustained workloads such as large game library management, high-resolution video editing staging, and frequent OS image operations. The M.2 2280 form factor (80 mm length) means the drive slots directly into the dedicated M.2 slot found on most modern ATX, mATX, and ITX motherboards that expose a PCIe 5.0 M.2 lane — typically those built around Intel 700-series or AMD 800-series platforms. The drive ships without a heatsink attached, maximising compatibility with boards that include their own integrated M.2 thermal solution. Microsoft DirectStorage support allows compatible games to stream asset data directly from the SSD to the GPU, bypassing certain CPU overhead steps and enabling faster in-game level load transitions on DirectStorage-enabled titles. CORSAIR backs the MP700 Elite with a five-year limited warranty and customer support coverage.
