Corsair Force MP510 M.2 NVMe SSD

Time to close this review, and I can only say ‘Wow, this is an outstanding drive'. It's almost the best drive that you can have if you are an enthusiast, almost since I never got it to reach some of the IOPS that Corsair claims on the box, but if I am...

It's been a while since Corsair launched its first flagship M.2 2280 NVMe drive, the Force MP500, into the market – but now over a year later we have its successor, the Force MP510.The previous MP500 used a combination of Phison's PS5007-E7 controller...

NVMe drives that exploit the bandwidth of x4 PCIe channels have been around for a few years. With eight times as much effective bandwidth as a SATA connected drive, NVMe demonstrates well what flash memory can do when organised effectively. The issue,...

The Corsair Force MP510 is an unassuming little SSD but it posted the highest scores we've ever seen in several benchmark parameters. Hopefully, this is the standard that we can expect from mainstream NVMe SSDs going forward, as more companies adopt...

The MP510 SSD is a storage solution that will rip open a new level of performance on that 3000 MB/sec range for reads. The storage volume size is a little more tricky to describe as it varies per size, the 240GB model does 1,050 MB/sec writes, the 480GB...

The Corsair MP510 is an upper SSD that should attract content developers, enthusiasts and gamers with its 8-channel Phison E12 controller which is very strong. Adding a 5 year warranty, Toolbox and thermal protection to the mix is gravvy to what appears to be a great SSD.

Het blijft nog even afwachten welke andere fabrikanten de PS5012-controller van Phison gaan gebruiken voor een nieuwe ssd, maar voor nu is het duidelijk dat Corsair het optimaliseren van deze hardware goed onder de knie heeft. De uitstekende prestaties van Corsair's Force MP510 worden beloond met een welverdiende Excellent Choice award.

Bottom line you simply can’t go wrong with the brand new Force Series MP510 NVMe PCIe M.2 SSD by CORSAIR and since it ticks every single box we hoped it would (minus the thermal throttling issue which stands true for every NVMe drive out there) it deserves our Platinum Award.

As much as we try, we’re struggling to find any reason to not recommend this drive. If you want a fast, reliable, good looking NVMe drive, this is the one to go for.

The Corsair Force MP510 offers more value than its predecessor along with better endurance ratings than other consumer flash-based SSDs. That, plus nearly class-leading sequential performance and a five-year warranty, make Corsair's MP510 a Force to be...
