Poor write performance once cache is full
Pricing not yet competitive enough to justify purchasing over other drives

The BX200 performs decent with in both random and sequential read but it suffered quite a lot in the random write and sequential write. The sequential write shows the worst performance which is somewhat unusual since SSD manufacturers often use this numbe...
