The editors didn't like
There are none!
Speed drops during long sequential operations (AIDA64)
Neutral
TLC NAND has lower endurance than MLC but brings more capacity per real estate
“With Crucial’s BX200 SSD series there aren’t any excuse left to stay with traditional mechanical storage. Mak
Slower than most other SSDs
Only available in 2.5in form factor
High latency
High cost
Low throughput performance and sequential write performance that is half of a modern mechanical drive.
A lot of competitive alternatives for not much more money
Massively slows down while transferring large files
Not cheap enough to offset that slowdown
80MB/s when the amount of data exceeds the 6GB cache
Similar drives with better performance can be had for not much more

Now that the prices of SSDs are starting to fall again, the competition is starting to take off again. Especially the new models from Crucial and Samsung bring some life back to the business, which was badly needed in this market. Last year there were few...

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...
According to our tests, the Samsung SM951 (NVMe) is the fastest SSD available. It is even faster than the 950 Pro, while it is a lot cheaper as well. Bear in mind that you miss out on official Samsung support in the form of warranty, Magician and firmware...
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...

The Crucial BX200 480GB is a cheaper SSD and certainly offers an impressive step-up over traditional hard drives. However, given its cache limitations, you should think carefully about whether the saving is worth it....
The number of SSDs with a capacity of 1 TB is still relatively small. There are much more 500 GB SSDs available. Nevertheless you can find some interesting models. On top of this list we find the Sandisk Ultra II 960GB, because of its very wallet-frien...

I think it's safe to say that the Crucial BX200 480GB SSD has quite a lot going for it when you consider the overall package and all sides to the story. On the one hand, you have a drive which isn't only just competitively priced, but offers a large 480GB...

Crucial has designed the BX200 SSD drive to appeal to the PC builder who appreciates the company's quality control and service but cannot justify the additional expenditure for the MX200.Perfect for those who don't want to invest in the usual SSD+HDD...

There's still not too much to get excited about in the world of SSDs, but the Crucial BX200 480GB proves otherwise. Crucial have a decent looking drive with a high capacity, great performance and a budget price. Now surely that's a little bit exiting, do...
