Corsair Force MP510 480 GB (CSSD-F480GBMP510)

The Corsair Force MP510 is an M.2 2280 internal SSD for PCs and laptops with M.2 slots, operating via the PCIe Gen3 x4 interface and NVMe 1.3 protocol. This delivers fast operating system boot times, game loading, and performance for demanding applications without SATA bottlenecks. The Corsair Force MP510 lineup includes capacities of 240 GB, 480 GB, 960 GB, 1920 GB, and 4 TB. Performance scales with capacity: the higher-tier configurations deliver peak sequential speeds up to 3480 MB/s for reads and up to 3000 MB/s for writes. Lower-capacity versions show reduced write speeds—for example, the 240 GB model reaches up to 3100 MB/s reads and up to 1050 MB/s writes. Random access performance is crucial for small file operations: the higher-tier configurations deliver hundreds of thousands of IOPS, accelerating level loading, cache operations, and project compilation. The Corsair Force MP510 supports S.M.A.R.T., TRIM, and 256-bit AES hardware encryption. Power is supplied from the 3.3 V rail. For reliability, the drive offers shock resistance up to 1500G and operates in a temperature range from 0 to 65 °C. Write endurance (TBW) scales with capacity, so the 4 TB version has a higher total write limit than smaller capacities. The Corsair Force MP510 is an ideal choice as a system NVMe drive when you need fast reads and writes without additional cables and minimal data access latency.
