Crucial MX500 500GB M.2 Type 2280 SSD-CT500MX500SSD4

Amazing price. Installation was a breeze (it comes with two screws), and it's super fast. For productivity, SATA SSD will suffice, however, if you're doing beefier resource intensive tasks or gaming, NVMe SSD will be better for you. The 500gb fills up fast, so depending on the applications you install, you might want to get a bigger one. I'm using an 1TB crucial P1 nVme ssd as the boot drive & using this new one for application installs. Read-write speeds are really good. I'm thinking of using this ssd in an enclosure with type c & use it as an external drive which can help me with quick transfer of data or work on the go. Update: (week Later); I have added this ssd in a metal type enclosure by everpert which costed about Rs.950. Read-write speeds were good using a usb 3.1 cable. Update: (8 months Later): Speeds were consistently stable 410-445 reads & 390-430 writes. observed a 2% speed boost after a recent firmware upgrade. i also ordered the 1tb ssd last week. will post the benchmarks soon. Checkout the benchmark screenshots i posted. This SATA m,2 drive is totally worth its price.

The price is a big value for those who want to upgrade their systems. Works seamlessly till date without any issues. However, using their Acronis software can be a bit confusing at first but oncd you get the hang of it, its pretty much ok. Laptop now boots in about 7 seconds from an earlier boot tike of 25-30 seconds. Highly recommended

Hi, Writing this review after 3 weeks usage, If you are some one who struggles with hard-disk then just go for this It will be the single best upgrade you can do on a laptop. I am software developer and I work with many software and files on almost times, My main bottle neck was the damn hard-disk which used to be in 100% usage all times. Now everything works like a charm, not even a single lag after the upgrade. My lap is i5 8250U, 8gb Ram, mx150 below are my experience > Windows boots completely + get search result from chrome in less than 20 secs > Windows shutdowns in 3-6 secs > Witcher 3 open to main menu in 5 secs > Normally stays in temperature of 40°C-45°C, on high usage like bench marking it hits 67°C - 74°C If you are into complete cloning or C drive only cloning I recommend Macrium Reflect, It does the Job fine and its easy to use.,don't need to use Acronis true image as its recommended

Best Sata SSD at 5000 price range. Read and write speed is nearly 600 MBps. I installed it on my Acer swift 3 ryzen 5 2500u laptop and working perfectly fine. Windows boots up in less than 6 seconds. Extremely satisfied with the product.

This product is very under rated compared to Samsung and other brands , but after checking its reviews around the world , I choosed to purchase it , I'm happy with the purchase. I have 8th Gen Intel CPU with H370 motherboard , during installation the only thing that I worried about was data transfer from my existing HDD to this SSD , but this came with a free cloning software which has done my 90% of my work , only after cloning I had to chose the SSD as preferred boot option , then it worked like it should at the first time , don't be scared during the first boot , it takes time similar to a HDD , after 2nd boot it's starts to show magic , my computer usually used to boot in 2 Min befor now it only takes 7 sec . Pretty awesome right. I'm using this SSD from past 6months, don't have any complaints.

SATA 500gb & Nvme 500 both were for 4899. It wud hav been better if SATA was still less as it's old . But decent price for online , these days online are expensive nd not returnable. I got the good product, so far 1month no issue. I expect it to last for 8+years.

It's working very well .It takes just seconds to boot up from few minutes and apps like visual studio are also loading fast. My one complaint is packaging was very poor .I mean you guys packed a ssd in just thin layers of cardboard like wrappingbup some cd.i hoped at least for antitampering packaging and some padding for ssd .but packaging was very poor.

The product is totally garbage and my SSD does not work. I submitted my SSD last 21/12/2021 service centre and still waiting for replacing.

I have bought it almost a month ago, and it is working great. While browsing or watching a movie, the temp is between 40-50, and if I try to push the SSD a lot, the temp is around 60-65 Celsius. It is very fast, Windows boot process is done in a matter of few seconds, transfer speed are as advertised, and it doesn't heat like some people said since the heating problem could also be due to the laptop design and how did the vendor dealt with the airflow, etc. The only thing I don't like is the lower TBW than with some other 500GB M.2 SSDs. However, having 180 TBW is around 96GB daily in a course of 5 years, and for this price, it is a great deal. 90ish GB daily should be plenty enough, unless you plan to reinstall Windows every week for several times.

A really great price point for a 500GB m.2 SSD. It has exceptionally fast load up speeds, my PC starts up before I can even sit down after pressing the on button. Very easy to install, a youtube video does the trick. 500GB is enough for installing windows, office and a few games and I have a second hard drive for more games/apps/files. The SSD has a flashing red light so you know if it's working or not.

📦UNBOXING📦 Confezione non ricca per ovvi motivi: soltanto l’SSD Crucial MX500 M2 con allegate due vitine di ricambio per il fissaggio alla scheda madre e un piccolo manualino con all’interno il link per fare il download del programma Acronis, utile per chi come me necessitava di clonare il vecchio disco. 🙋🏻‍♂️LE MIE IMPRESSIONI🙋🏻‍♂️ Appena arrivato, mediante un adattatore esterno ho collegato il nuovo SSD crucial al mio notebook e prendendo il vecchio SSD con installato Windows 10 ho subito fatto un clone da inserire appunto nel nuovo acquisto. Premesso che avevo già l’SSD, quindi disponevo già di ottime prestazioni; tuttavia già al primo avvio la differenza è stata tangibile! Avvio di Windows in meno di 7/8 secondi, tempo di apertura di programmi pesanti quali Sony Vegas e power director tangibilmente ristrettì...insomma dopo anche un’infinità di benchmark posso confermare che questo SSD è il miglior SSD SATA 3 M2 al pari del SAMSUNG 860 EVO. 💰 PREZZO 💰 Anche in questo aspetto sbaraglia la concorrenza poichè al modico costo di 72 euro (taglio da 500 gb) batte la diretta concorrente Samsung di circa 15 euro in meno!! 🌟 CONCLUSIONI 🌟 Crucial negli ultimi anni ha prodotto memorie di qualità altissima facendo tremare i famigerati evo di Samsung e nonostante la qualità è riuscita a mantenere il prezzo super competitivo. Questo è l’SSD da prendere se si vuoi fare un upgrade al proprio pc. 🗳 VOTO FINALE 🗳 —> 9

I purchased a cheap 11 inch laptop - added the Crucial 500GB drive and changed things to boot on the new drive. It works a treat! It wasn't a difficult project. The SSD drive was easy to install and cloning of the original SSD drive was straight forward. The SSD is fast and compensates nicely for the small RAM in the laptop.

El cambio de el un disco mecánico a uno en estado sólido le a alargado la vida ami portatil una barbaridad. La velocidades son muy correctas, validos para cualquier uso de vez en cuándo lo utilizo para jugar y la velocidad de apertura es mucho mejor , el arranque inicial es muy efectivo a mejorado mucho , tarda como 12 segundos y antes me tardaba casi 2 min . La instalación es super fácil, si quieres mejor tu experiencia con tu PC o laptop es la mejor opción lo recomiendo al 100%100.
