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

As viewed through the eyes of an enthusiast, Crucial's BX200 is not a very attractive option. It may be okay for gamers because it has excellent sequential read performance, but if you plan on transferring large chunks of data, or running moderate to he...

Abstract: With his current gaming solid state drive packed to the gills with the likes of The Witcher 3 and Fallout 4, in order to find somewhere to install Just Cause 3, NetGuide's Darren Price takes a look at Crucial's 480GB BX200 2.5-inch SDD.If you are running...
GREAT READ PERFORMANCE FOR THE PRICE, BEST FOR TIGHT BUDGET REQUIREMENTS, EXTRA MIGRATION SOFTWARE IS A PLUS, 7mm ZHEIGHT CLEARANCE, CAPACITY RANGES AT 240, 480, & 960GB
WRITE BUFFER LIMIT IS DISAPPOINTING
Alright, let us start off with the performance of the drive, and try to understand this SSD's strong points and weakness. First and foremost, if you are looking for a drive that could be used to transfer or write 4GB of files and above on a daily basis, t...
Débits en écriture, Garantie de 3 ans (5 ans, voire plus chez certains concurrents)
La série BX200 est décevante : les débits sont en retrait de ceux proposés par la série précédente (BX100) et de ceux de la concurrence. Si le système de cache peut s'avérer pratique pour ceux qui n'ont pas de gros travaux d'écriture journaliers, il est t...
