You can consider yourself lucky if you purchased an SSD last year. Since then not a lot has happened when it comes to the performance, while the prices have gone up. However, using a hard drive as boot disk is not necessary at all - there are more than en...
First of all the best middleclass SSD that you can use. Based on the performance and the good price the Sandisk Ultra II 480GB is the best choice. The Sandisk performs nearly as well as the fastest SATA600-drives in the test, but for a much lower price...

Before we go any further we need to address the problem, this new product launch has caused for the consumer. The numbers below are accurate on the day of publishing and will have adjusted over time. Just a few months back when I looked at the MX, that...

The Crucial BX100 is not the fastest drive on the market, nor is it meant to be. While the BX100 is designed to give users some of the speed they crave, it is also meant to offer great value and a cheaper alternative to some competitors SSDs. Does it live...
Each of the drives brings something new to the table. With the BX100 it's the Silicon Motion controller, the first time that this controller has been used in a Crucial device. Despite what Crucial says, it performs pretty well for a drive labelled as a bu...
Encryption hasn't taken off for consumers and we've found that price often matters more than advanced features or even the best performance available. First and foremost users want reliability, then low price and finally acceptable performance. SSDs by na...

Mediocre write speeds, No caching or high-end encryption features, No alternative form factors
Crucial's BX100 doesn't include the high-end features of other drives, but it delivers decent performance at a tempting price – especially when its impressive file reading pace is considered. Those results make it a better bet than the older MX100, but i...
