Available worldwide at leading retail and e-tail stores, commercial resellers, and system integrators, Crucial products enhance system performance and user productivity.
Crucial solid state drives (SSDs) and memory (DRAM) upgrades are compatible with over 100,000 new and old desktops, laptops, workstations, and servers. The model number of the MX500 I am testing today is CT1000MX500SSD1.Ĭrucial celebrated its 20th anniversary in 2016.Ĭrucial is a global brand of Micron Technology, Inc. So without further ado, let’s take a look at the Crucial MX500 1TB SSD and see what improvements Crucial have managed to achieve. I always tell people that a SSD is arguably the best single upgrade one can make for their computers, aging or modern. Whereas the MX300 showcased Micron’s 32-layer 3D NAND flash memory, the MX500 showcases Micron’s latest 64-layer 3D NAND flash memory, and this has enabled Crucial to increase the warranty length on the new MX500 to 5-years, instead of the 3-years offered on the MX300.Ĭrucial promises they’ve improved on the successful MX300 formula, and this new generation MX500 promises more overall speed across the entire range, quality in the MX500’s hardware-based AES 256-bit encryption for better security, integrated power loss immunity which protects the MX500 SSD from unintended data loss when the power unexpectedly goes out, saving your data in the process, and more capacity ranges to choose from up to 2TB of storage. Well, Crucial was hard at work in creating the successor to the MX300 SSD, aptly named the MX500. What more can one expect from an SSD such as the MX300?
Fast forward six months and the same Crucial MX300 750GB SSD that I tested and have had running 24x7 has had no problems to report of. The MX300 proved to be a winner in my book with its competitive pricing placing it within reach for the average consumer, excellent performance for the price throughout the board no matter read or write, or compressible or incompressible data, and that the MX300 performed at SLC NAND level speeds was impressive. Last year ModSynergy had the opportunity to review the Crucial MX300 750GB SSD with Micron's 3D NAND technology. Crucial MX500 1TB 2.5" 3D NAND SSD Review
