- Some of the storage capacity is used for formatting and other purposes and is not available for data storage. 1GB equals 1 billion bytes. Not all capacities available at initial launch.
- Typical I/O performance numbers as measured using CrystalDiskMark with a queue depth of 32 and write cache enabled. Fresh out-of-box (FOB) state is assumed. For performance measurement purposes, the SSD may be restored to FOB state using the secure erase command. System variations will affect measured results.

The Crucial BX500 1TB 3D NAND SATA SSD is a stellar choice for those looking to upgrade from older SSDs or move away from traditional hard disk drives (HDDs). As a user who has experienced the disappointment of a HDD failure, the switch to this SSD was not just an upgrade, but a necessity.
Rapid Performance and Vast Storage:
One of the most noticeable improvements is the boot time. The BX500 SSD offers a significant boost in speed, reducing the time it takes for your system to start up. Additionally, the 1TB storage capacity is a substantial upgrade, especially for those transitioning from lower-capacity drives. This ample space is ideal for storing a large array of files, applications, and games without worrying about running out of room.
The Benefits of SSD over HDD:
It's important to highlight the advantages of SSDs over traditional HDDs. SSDs, like the Crucial BX500, offer faster data access speeds, which means quicker boot times, faster file transfers, and overall snappier system performance. They are also more reliable due to their lack of moving parts, reducing the risk of mechanical failures. The energy efficiency of SSDs is another plus, as they consume less power, which can be particularly beneficial for laptops by extending battery life.
Durability and Longevity:
SSDs are generally more durable and can withstand physical shocks better than HDDs. This makes them a safer option for mobile devices and for users who are on the move.
Ideal for New Builds and Upgrades Alike:
Whether you're assembling a new PC or upgrading an existing one, the Crucial BX500 1TB SSD is an excellent choice. It's suitable for a wide range of uses, from casual computing to more demanding tasks like gaming and content creation.
Verdict:
In conclusion, the Crucial BX500 1TB SSD is a highly recommended upgrade. Its combination of speed, storage capacity, and reliability, along with the inherent benefits of SSD technology, make it a wise investment for both new builds and upgrades. The peace of mind that comes from using a more reliable and efficient storage solution is invaluable, especially for those who have endured the frustration of HDD failures.
crucial.com/support/articles-faq-ssd/ssd-used-to-be-faster-but-has-slowed-down
Much faster on startup!
However the BX series is a value oriented SSD, and is not the best choice for users who do heavy write activity like video production, some games, large databases or backup storage. For applications that involve a lot of disk write activity or for users who want a little better performance and possibly longevity the MX series is probably the superior choice.
The crucial BX series is a significant performance upgrade from a traditional hard disk, and will provide a noticeable speed benefit for an older laptop. You'll also get silent operation, and a little longer battery life.

Crucial is a well known name in the memory business and has been around for years. These drives are one more piece of evidence, as to why.
Highly recommended.
