Crucial BX500 SSD

Speed: The speed is as expected and can be used as an external SSD with an enclosure. These are the peak read and write speeds, but in practical usage, speeds rarely match these numbers. During data transfer, I achieved around 470 MB/s write and 510 MB/s read speeds, which is very good. Remember, sata ssds don't go above these speeds, the SATA interface itself is limited in its data transfer capabilities. I purchased this SSD for additional storage for my PC, as I don’t have an extra M.2 slot. It can be used for gaming and performs well, though it’s slightly slower than an NVMe SSD. However, the difference is hardly noticeable during regular use or gaming. If you’re building a new PC, opting for an M.2 NVMe SSD would be better. While slightly more expensive, it’s worth the extra cost for the added performance. For older systems, though, this SSD is a great choice for upgrading storage and improving performance. Compatibility: This SSD is widely compatible with all systems and laptops. Simply connect the cables, and it’s ready to use. If it doesn’t appear in File Explorer, don't worry. Just go to Disk Management, create a new volume from the unallocated space, and format it. Durability: With a 120TBW rating, the SSD can write up to 120 terabytes of data. Durability depends on usage. Heavy write operations- like exporting a large video- will degrade it faster, while light use—like storing a few games—primarily involves read operations, causing minimal wear and extending its lifespan. Price: I managed to get this SSD for ₹2,049 during a sale with a ₹250 coupon, which I consider a lucky deal. If you find it priced around ₹2,199, it's still worth considering. However, if the price is higher, I recommend waiting for discounts, as the price often drops.

Package is bad, SSD is good and fast, works perfectly

I upgraded from an HDD to this Crucial SSD and honestly, it felt like the perfect purchase for my laptop. The boot-up speed was insanely fast, and everyday performance saw a major boost. In terms of compatibility, it fit right in without any issues, and the connectivity was seamless just plug. The ease of use during installation made the whole process hassle-free, even for someone without much tech experience. The build quality feels premium, and the laptop now runs cooler and quieter, which adds to the overall comfort of use. If you're looking for a solid speed upgrade, this drive won’t disappoint.

Excilent product , value for money ,get things done Loving it ...

using for last one year good quality

Super fast delivery and easy installation. Working as intended and reliable so far. Good speed. I am using this as secondary drive and speed is really good.

Comfort: • 👍 Pros: • Fast boot‑up and general responsiveness—superior to any HDD for daily tasks and light apps. • Sequential speeds around 550 MB/s read and 500 MB/s write—comparable to mid‑range SATA drives . • Affordable at ~₹3,300–4,200 locally, offering solid value per GB (). • 👎 Cons: • DRAM‑less architecture means slower 4K random and sustained writes—can dip below HDD speeds during heavy transfers . • Overheats under continuous write load—controller throttles down to ~60 °C, slashing write speeds . • Minimal endurance—rated at ~120 TBW, lower than MX500 or competing drives . • Plastic casing is less durable than metal alternatives.

Works flawlessly and good speed.

الهارد ممتاز

Toujours parfait pour redonner un second souffle aux ordinateurs portables fatigués ou un peu anciens, la première cause de ralentissement étant le disque mécanique. Ce disque SSD a un très bon rapport qualité-prix.

This SSD hard drive is perfect for my security cameras! It’s fast, reliable, and handles continuous recording without any issues. Easy to set up and has plenty of storage space. Highly recommend for surveillance systems!
