If you edit 4K or 8K video, work with large datasets, or copy tens of gigabytes between drives daily, a Gen 5 drive pays for itself in time saved. The T705 is the one we would buy: it is among the fastest available, the heatsink version handles thermals without a fan, and Crucial's pricing is more reasonable than most. For everyone else, buy a Gen 4 drive and put the difference toward more capacity.
