The Crucial BX100 1TB model performed just as great as the previously tested 500GB model. We saw a good performance over all of our tests, with both compressible and incompressible data, no matter how much data was on the drive. Throughout the review, we...

Starting with the build quality of the BX100 we have a series of drives which arrive with nice metal casing which feels solid. Inside Crucial have stuck with their own Micron parts for cache and NAND which is ideal and the controller used here is fairly w...
Abstract: Crucial introduced their new BX100 and MX200 SSDs during CES. The BX100 is a new budget series which is priced even lower than the extremely popular MX100 series. The MX200 series, on the other hand, has clearly been developed by Crucial to take on Sams...

With the BX100 we have another very good product for the price which is able to sport very good read speeds and decent writes for the 250GB model, while the 500GB and 1TB versions have even higher rating write speeds. For conserving the costs, the manufac...
The Crucial BX100 120GB SSD is currently selling for $64 USD on Amazon, which puts it in the same ballpark as other low-end 120GB solid-state drives. However, if price isn't the biggest concern to you, for just a few dollars more you can get a 256GB drive...
