Crucial BX500 2TB 2.5" Internal SSD

Didnt work full stop. Had to get a replacement so upspeced and went for a different manufacturer slightly more expensive - you could see the difference in quality - no fine micro threads of rough plastic off the casting. New drive works well. Don't think I'd go for Crucial again as its been 0/1 so far. Didnt work full stop.

Can't go wrong. Can't go wrong.

Good SATA SSD at a good price. Good SATA SSD at a good price.

It's an standard SSD and worth the price. It's an standard SSD and worth the price.

Great drive at a great price. I used quite a lot of Crucial drives in my life and they are great. For only couple dozen of dollars more you'll get far superior performance than cheap Chinese brands. If you're on a budget but want a great SDD save on a couple of coffees. And get this instead of King-No-Name-Whatever brand. Great drive at a great price.

Happy to find this drive at this price. Big step up as an editing drive for me. Happy to find this drive at this price. Big step up as an editing drive for me.

Happy so far with the performance of this drive. Happy so far with the performance of this drive.

Not the greatest, however as a cheapo drive it works great for a OS drive or file storage just don't expect amazing improvement in game performance. Not the greatest, however as a cheapo drive it works great for a OS drive or file storage just don't expect amazing improvement in game performance.

I was surprised when I've seen this SSD at a such a low price point. When I got it and had it installed into my laptop, it speeded up dramatically. I didn't have to wait 10 minutes for Windows to finish loading everything from the hard drive.

I don't have any measurable metrics for this, but if you that interested, there's Google.

I'd heavily recommend buying an SSD over any other upgrade if you think your PC is sluggish. Windows is a lot harder on reading data now. And since the BX500 is cheap and made by a reputable manufacturer, I'd heavily recommend it.

One last note, if you are running Windows, go for a 240GB SSD or larger. You ...view more I was surprised when I've seen this SSD at a such a low price point.
