The editors didn't like

  • Write speed drops when SLC cache is full
  • Small Performance Increase Compared To The BX300 Line
  • High Temperatures (Performance Throttling)
  • Performance (Compared To NVMe Drives)
  • Lower Write Endurance Than Competition

  • Given the modest performance of the Crucial MX300, you'd be forgiven for expecting the MX500 to deliver much of the same. However, the Crucial MX500 is as nippy a SATA SSD as you can find, without opting for a pro-level drive. With competitive pricing and...

  • Very attractive price, Five-year warranty, Power-loss immunity, Robust endurance claims
  • Sata interface
  • Crucial's remit with the MX500 series of SSDs is to offer an enviable mix of features and price across all capacities. The 1TB model in for review today mates a Silicon Motion controller, first seen on the BX series, to its latest-generation 3D Nand.T...

  • I always have high expectations when testing a Crucial drive simply because I have gotten used to it. The drives are engineered well from start to end and deliver what they promise. The MX500 with 1TB capacity which I tested today was no different. We saw...
