The Crucial M4 256GB is a fairly fast drive. At first, I was a bit disappointed by the performance relative to the OCZ Vertex 4. Then I thought about it, I spent $280 for the OCZ Vertex 4 256GB and $180 for the Crucial M4 256GB a week apart. When I think ...
s I really liked the 128GB Crucial m4 when I first looked at it months ago. That was before the performance was significantly boosted by firmware upgrades, and without the benefit of a full stack of flash channels to utilize. Now we are looking at the ...
Exceptional speed, Does not rely on real-time file compression to achieve highest levels of performance, 3 year warranty, Available in up to 512GB capacities
None that I found
Crucial is a name we always know for reliability and quality-made products and the M4 drive is no exception. It is very well made and besides the controller everything else inside is made by Crucial (Micron). Crucial does offer their standard 3 year ...
Abstract: The arrival of affordable, high-performance client SSDs gave us two (closely related) things: 1) a high-speed primary storage option that could work in both a notebook or a desktop, and 2) independence from traditional hard drive form factors. Unlike...
SATA 6Gb/s ready, Strong performance in our gaming trace, Wide capacity offerings to fit budget or task, Group-leading read performance
Falls behind in mixed workloads, Slower performance in our HTPC and Productivity traces
The Micron RealSSD C400 mSATA SSD gives OEMs many options for ultrathin computers, tablets and even standard notebooks with models ranging from 32GB to 256GB. Micron has hit the mark with the RealSSD C400 mSATA, selling a model for most use-cases, be it c...
It is really hard to find any problems with Marvell 88SS9174 controller, which is used in the solid state drives reviewed today. Its characteristics and internal architecture allow designing SSDs with up-to-date performance, and such SSD makers as Cor...
There are more SSD disks on the market; for example: OCZ, Corsair, and a few others. Both Kingston and Crucial are big sellers though and perform very well in most tests. The Patriot drive in this test was older but managed to keep up very well with w...
Honestly, I came into this review expecting a lot. There are so many factors in play that puts Crucial into such an excellent position when it comes to making great SSDs. For one, Micron/Crucial owns their own fab. These days, that's a pretty coveted posi...
Read speeds just under 900MB/s in RAID0, Random 4K read speeds topping 90,000 IOPS, Very strong incompressible write speeds
Weak-mixed workload performance still carries over from the 0009 firmware
For enthusiasts looking to squeeze out even more performance from reliable SSD like the Marvell-powered Crucial m4, going to RAID0 can make sense where you need substantially higher read and write speeds...
Abstract: Let's be honest. In the PC world, size matters. This is true not only for the height of ATX towers, but also for the thickness of ultrabooks. The size of one's SSD is important, too. In addition to defining how many applications, games, and data can enjoy...
