Micron is making some serious noise at Computex 2025 with the launch of two new Crucial SSDs. The newly unveiled T710 Gen5 NVMe SSD and X10 Portable SSD offer the kind of speed and storage capacity that demanding users have been waiting for.

The T710 is an absolute beast. Crucial is claiming up to 14,900MB/s read speeds and 13,800MB/s write speeds, making it the fastest drive it’s ever released. Random performanceis off the charts, folks. We’re talking over 2 million IOPS. That kind of speed means faster game loading, snappier project rendering, and real-time responsiveness for complex tasks. There’s even an optional heatsink if you’re planning to push it hard.

Micron has unveiled the Crucial T705 solid state drive. This PCIe 5.0 SSD is built using the company's advanced 232-layer TLC NAND technology, aiming to maximize the potential of Gen5 performance levels. It offers sequential read and write speeds up to 14,500MB/s and 12,700MB/s respectively. These speeds are promise quicker gaming experiences, faster video editing, and more efficient 3D rendering and AI application processing.

In terms of design, the T705 SSD features a premium black aluminum heatsink. This design choice is not just for aesthetics; it serves the practical purpose of dissipating heat efficiently. The SSD is engineered to operate without the need for noisy fans or liquid cooling systems, which could be an advantage for users seeking a quieter computing environment. Additionally, the T705 SSD is backwards compatible with Gen3 and Gen4 motherboards.
