Crucial BX200 Solid State Drive

Enjoy your computer again.

Ever start your computer, then have to find something to do while it wakes up? Your computer should be ready when you are — not the other way around. Make long wait times a thing of the past by loading apps in seconds, booting up almost instantly, and accelerating nearly everything on your computer. Get more done and have more fun with the Crucial BX200 SSD.

Micron quality – a higher level of reliability.

As a brand of Micron, one of the largest flash storage manufacturers in the world, the Crucial BX200 is backed by the same quality and innovation that has produced some of the world's most advanced memory and storage technologies. With over a thousand hours of prerelease validation testing and hundreds of SSD qualification tests, the Crucial BX200 has been thoroughly tried, tested, and proven. You'll notice the difference.

Up to 13x faster than a typical hard drive*

Accessing your data on the Crucial BX200 is like flipping a light switch — it's almost instant. The Crucial BX200 delivers true 540 MB/s sequential reads on both compressible and incompressible data, which allows you to access files and apps almost as soon as you click on them. Stop pulling your hair out waiting for your computer to catch up to you. Life moves fast — your computer should too.

Up to 40x more energy efficient than a typical hard drive**

Since SSDs access data on cutting-edge flash memory chips rather than on outdated spinning platters, they consume significantly less power than hard drives. Enjoy the ability to do more with longer battery life and experience a cooler, quieter system. Increase your laptop's portability, worry less about finding an outlet, and boost your productivity.

More durable than a typical hard drive

Since SSDs don't use moving parts that wear out over time, your photos, music, videos, and everything on the drive is less susceptible to a crash. Dropping a laptop with a hard drive may damage the small mechanical parts it uses to read and write data, and could cause the hard drive to fail. SSDs can sustain more physical trauma since they don't rely on these mechanical parts.

Better value than a typical SSD

The Crucial BX200 leverages proven flash memory technology that's been thoroughly vetted and engineered to extensive Micron quality standards. Upgrading to an SSD is one of the best ways to improve your system's performance, and now the price per gigabyte makes it a great time to ditch your hard drive. Start getting more out of your storage.

* Performance level based on comparative benchmark scores of the Crucial BX200 SSD and the Western Digital Caviar Blue WD10EZEX internal hard drive. Actual performance level may vary based on benchmark used and individual system configuration. Test setup: 256GB Crucial m4 SSD as the primary storage drive, paired with a 960GB Crucial BX200 SSD and a 1TB Western Digital Caviar Blue internal hard drive as secondary drives (each secondary drive tested separately). All tests conducted on an Asus Maximus VII Gene motherboard, Intel i7-4790K 4.0GHz processor, SAPPHIRE Radeon HD 3870 video card, BIOS Rev. 2801, and Windows 7 Pro 64-bit operating system using PCMark Vantage HDD test suite. Benchmark testing conducted September 2015.

**Active average power use comparison based on published specs of the 960GB Crucial BX200 SSD and the 1TB Western Digital Caviar Blue internal hard drive.

On AS SSD Benchmark (The Official Competition Bench of HWBOT) varies a bit on 4K as it uses a different Thread Count wich is 4K64 rather than the 4K32 of Crystal Disk Mark.

5.0 out of 5 stars Purchased to replace a failing hard drive

Here is the background for the purchase of this SSD.
I have a late 2011 MacBook Pro running Windows 10. Please do not make comments about why I am running Windows 10 on a MacBook Pro. :-)

I dropped the laptop last week. My Windows 10 Apps(not applications but Apps) stopped working completely. The performance was dragging. Disk cycles were pegged at 100%. Startup time was abysmal.

When I looked at the Windows Event Viewer, many entries reported that the drive had a bad block.I ran an sfc /scannow command.
I used the analog command for DISM to check the file integrity using an online reference.
Both utilities reported that the drive was fine. I think that Windows 10 OS moves files from bad blocks but regardless of whether that is the case, the hard drive could still have had physical issues. As a precaution I decided to purchase this drive before the drive failed completely.

I have an enclosure for SATA drives. I ran the Acronis True Image 2015 software and backed up my old hard drive to the SSD. Interestingly, True Image reported a number of read errors on my original mechanical drive. However, I chose the option to "Ignore All". After two hours the backup of the old mechanical drive to the new SSD was completed. I guess skipping the bad blocks was good enough as the OS has some means of maintaining integrity even in the presence of failing hardware.

I was able to get the SSD installed very quickly. Not counting the time to remove the back of the laptop, it took just a few minutes to attach the SATA connector and seat the SSD correctly in the drive bay.The moment of truth was the power up. I powered up the laptop and it has been performing very well. I don't have metrics comparable to those who do multimedia for a living but this SSD was sufficient for my needs.
So for ease of install, provided software and functionality, I give this a 5 star rating.

If you haven't had an SSD then you don't know what computer performance is all about. This drive is amazing in it's size, capacity and throughput. I know I shouldn't be continually amazed by computer evolution but I am. My first computer was a 486DX33 with 1 meg of ram and a 200 meg hard drive. It cost over $3000. People thought I was wasting my money on more computer than I would ever use. Hah.

This SSD has been trouble free and has the capacity to hold a really large database that I work with all the time. I just can't believe it is so affordable.

Drive is working great. Loaded the backup software with provided license. Imaged the original drive and transferred it onto the new drive. Was back up and running. Image creation takes longer than it estimates and appears not to be doing anything for long periods of time. But it is working. Was a bit of challenge getting it to create the right partitioning on the new drive, but I managed in the end. Used a Thermaltake BlacX to plug in the new drive to transfer the data. Took out the old drive and put in the new one with ease on my ASUS R500A laptop.

Installed this into my Inspiron 5720. After upgrading to Windows 10 I had so many troubles staying on-line and running my most important programs that I was looking for a new computer. Instead I installed this Crucial BX200 drive, loaded it with a new Windows 10, reinstalled my programs and saved many hundreds against the cost of a new computer. Installation could not have been easier, requiring only a very small Phillips head screw-driver. Now I have none of the problems I had before, the system starts almost instantly and programs load lightning-fast.

Not as expected, read speeds are ok but write speeds slow to near SATA levels after a few minutes. If you are writing large files this isn't the SSD for you. For the first 2 minutes you get 480 meg write speeds, after that it drops drastically down to 80 Meg's or less.

Ich habe diese SSD gekauft, um eine MacbookPro Mid 2010 umzurüsten. MIt einem separat bestellten SATA-Kabel hat auch der Umzug der Daten und des OS gut geklappt. Die Platte lief von Anfang an ohne Probleme, verrichtet bisher zuverlässig ihren Dienst und ist schnell. Die 960GB sind absolut ausreichend und noch ein bisschen günstiger als das Modell mit 1TB. Ich kann jedem, der ein älteres MacbookPro umrüsten möchte, zu dem Kauf raten. Der Unterschied zur ursprünglichen HDD ist eklatant. Man glaubt, ein neues Macbook zu haben. Nach der Erfahrung aus vierwöchiger Verwendung von mir eine klare Kaufempfehlung.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good price/performance
Reviewed in Canada on February 1, 2016

If you expect to be able to frequently write large files at high speed, this isn't the drive for you.

This drive uses TLC (triple-level cell) technology, which is slower to write data than previous generations (SLC, MLC). All TLC drives help mitigate the write speed issue by incorporating a high-speed cache. This drive includes a 12 GB cache, meaning you can perform bursts of write activity without it slowing down (up to 12 GB at a time).

I performed read and write and testing of the drive using the Linux (kernel 4.3.3). In sustained sequential write testing (dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sda bs=1M), the performance dropped to 83.5 MB/s. In sustained read testing (dd if=/dev/sda of=/dev/null bs=1M), performance maintained a consistent 539 MB/s.

For use in a notebook computer, under normal usage, this drive is more than sufficient for my needs. In my opinion, this drive provides good price/performance.
