About This Product
The Crucial BX500 is a budget SATA SSD, offering a significant speed upgrade over traditional hard drives for general computing tasks. Its 2.5-inch form factor is suitable for most laptops and desktops. While it provides faster boot times and application loading compared to HDDs, its performance is limited by the SATA interface and it will be slower than NVMe SSDs in its price range for sequential read/write operations.
Verdict
“This SSD is best for users upgrading from an HDD for basic computing and improved responsiveness.”
Performance, endurance, NAND architecture, thermals, and compatibility.
