Product Specifications

Blistering Speeds for Demanding Workloads

The Crucial E100 leverages PCI Express 4.0 to deliver up to 5 GB/s sequential read speeds. This means large files load almost instantly, whether you’re editing 4K video or running virtual machines. The 4500 MB/s write speed ensures fast data transfers and smooth multitasking. For creative professionals and gamers, these speeds translate directly into saved time and reduced bottlenecks.

M.2 Form Factor for Compact Builds

Measuring just 22 mm x 80 mm, the Crucial E100 fits into any standard M.2 slot. This compact design frees up space in your PC case and works perfectly in small-form-factor builds. Because it’s a single-sided M.2 drive, installation is straightforward and doesn’t block adjacent components. If you’re upgrading a laptop or building a mini-ITX system, this SSD is a space-saving solution.

PCIe 4.0 Ready for Future-Proof Performance

Built on the PCIe 4.0 interface, the Crucial E100 is ready for the latest platforms from AMD and Intel. It’s backward compatible with PCIe 3.0, so it will work in older systems—though you’ll get full speed only on PCIe 4.0 motherboards. This future-proofing means you can move the drive to a new build without losing performance. Always check your motherboard’s M.2 slot specifications before purchase.

Reliable Storage for High-Intensity Use

Crucial is a trusted name in memory and storage, and the E100 continues that legacy. While specific endurance ratings aren’t provided here, Crucial drives typically offer robust TBW (terabytes written) ratings for long-term reliability. The drive also includes thermal management features to maintain consistent performance under load. For users who demand both speed and stability, this SSD delivers.
