Corsair on its new SSDs:
In addition to its phenomenal sequential read and write performance, the MP700 PRO SE takes advantage of the latest interface, controller, and NAND flash technologies to deliver outstanding random read and write performance – vital when it comes to transferring smaller files and serving as the primary OS drive. Experience faster load times for Windows, applications, and games, while transferring large files becomes a breeze. With native support for Microsoft® DirectStorage, the MP700 PRO SE is ready to provide a gaming advantage not only in today’s games but in tomorrow’s too.
The MP700 PRO SE performs at its best alongside the latest platforms such as Intel 14th Gen and AMD Ryzen 7000 series CPUs and PCIe 5.0 motherboards. However, it also maintains backwards compatibility with PCIe 4.0 motherboards, providing a clear upgrade path and ensuring the drive’s longevity for years to come.
The MP700 PRO SE adheres to the industry standard M.2 2280 form factor, ensuring wide compatibility with a range of systems and platforms while maintaining ease of installation. Although the drive requires cooling to achieve optimal performance, the integrated M.2 cooling on most motherboards is more than capable. Additionally, the MP700 PRO SE is available with a stylish active cooler that keeps the drive running smoothly and minimizes throttling.
Tailored for the most demanding of gamers, content creators, and professionals, the MP700 PRO SE also offers a Hydro X Series water block variant, ready to integrate seamlessly into a custom cooling loop. Equipped with industry standard 1/4″ fittings, this option is ideal for those aiming to maximize the drive’s throughput for the most extreme workloads. Whatever your cooling needs, CORSAIR has an option that suits you and your system.
The MP700 PRO SE is backed by the free CORSAIR SSD Toolbox software, offering convenient features like secure erase and firmware updates directly from your desktop. With a five-year warranty providing extended peace of mind that your storage will remain fast and reliable, the MP700 PRO SE takes full advantage of PCIe 5.0 technology to set a new standard for M.2 performance.
