  • Strong sequential burst performance, Low cost, Supporting software,
  • Lower than average application performance, Low endurance, Low sustained write performance
  • Crucial's BX500 is a cheap option that will outperform any HDD as a boot drive, but it comes with drawbacks. The BX500's low endurance and application performance rank far behind most current-gen SSDs in the market. Pricing is competitive, but there are m...

  • Strong Sequential performance, Price, Crucial Storage Executive software
  • DRAM-less design does affect performance, Kitguru says: If you are on a very tight budget and need a 480GB SSD then Crucial's BX500 is an obvious choice but and it's a big but, there are much better-performing drives on the market for not very much more m
  • Crucial once reigned supreme in the entry-level SSD market segment but this a segment that has become ferociously competitive so to give the Crucial BX500 a fighting chance, Crucial have gone all out to keep the cost of building the drive as low as possib...

  • Au final, Crucial propose un SSD attrayant pour peu que l'on ne travaille pas continuellement avec des fichiers de 50Gb et que l'on ne cherche pas à avoir toutes les technologies qu'il est possible d'intégrer dans un SSD.Pour un usage domestique, et même...

  • Prix, Bons débits séquentiels, Grand cache SLC
  • Temps d'accès et iops moyens
  • Pour cette fois, Crucial nous offre un SSD abordable, qui permet de stocker ses données sans être obligé de piocher parmi les modèles haut de gamme et donc forcément onéreux. Le tout en profitant de l'expertise de la marque dans le domaine qui jouit d'une...

  • Débit séquentiel en lecture, Débit séquentiel en écriture avec cache actif, Cache SLC assez large
  • Accès aléatoire en retrait des meilleurs, Débit séquentiel en écriture hors cache
  • Après test, le BX500 de 960 Go affiche des performances identiques à celles observées sur la version de 480 Go. Nous vous renvoyons au test du Crucial BX500 480 Go pour en savoir plus. Le Crucial BX500 de 960 Go, bien que d'entrée de gamme, offre une pres...

  • Prix, Performances
  • 3 ans de garantie
  • A 75 € le SSD en 480 Go, assurément le BX500 est une très bonne affaire car il n'a pas à rougir face à la concurrence, ni même face à son grand frère le MX500. Qu'il soit pour un premier achat, une upgrade, ou alors stocker, il offrira d'excellentes perfo...

  • La serie BX500 è la risposta di Crucial alla costante espansione del mercato degli SSD. E, per quanto ho potuto sperimentare, è un'ottima risposta.È vero, i Crucial BX500 soffrono se paragonati ai loro concorrenti di fascia superiore, ma nella fascia low...
